As the Olympic flame has been extinguished, Paris is swiftly transitioning to host the Paralympic Games from August 28 to September 8, 2024. The city is bustling with preparations, transforming Olympic venues to accommodate Paralympic events.

Iconic sites like the Stade de France and the Grand Palais will host para-athletics and para-fencing, respectively.

The Place de la Concorde, which recently hosted Olympic events, is being reconfigured for the Paralympic opening ceremony.

Marie-Amélie Le Fur, president of the French Paralympic and Sports Committee, has set ambitious goals for the French team, aiming for 20 gold medals and a top 8 finish in the medal standings.

The Paralympics promise to be as thrilling as the Olympics, with 4,400 athletes competing across 22 sports, including unique events like boccia and goalball.

The transformation of Paris for the Paralympics underscores the city's commitment to inclusivity and accessibility, ensuring a seamless transition from the Olympic to the Paralympic Games.
