The Paris 2024 Paralympic Games concluded with a spectacular closing ceremony at the Stade de France, marking a historic achievement for the host nation.

France celebrated its best performance in the 21st century, securing 75 medals and finishing eighth in the medal tally.

The Games were lauded for their organization and inclusivity, with 2.4 million tickets sold, making them one of the most attended Paralympics ever.

The event also set a record with 165 television channels broadcasting the Games worldwide.

The legacy of the Games includes significant infrastructure developments, such as the athlete's village and the Olympic aquatic center, which will serve the community for years to come.

As the flame was passed to Los Angeles for the 2028 Games, the Paris Paralympics were hailed as a new benchmark for future events.
