Paris 2024 Olympics | Champions Park: a look back at the highlights of this crazy day in pictures

Closed for the past few days due to the road cycling road races, the Champions Park was back in action this Monday, August 5, with more than 150 athletes expected to parade before a public once again in attendance. Set up to celebrate all the medal winners of these Paris 2024 Olympic Games, it once again offered magical moments under a postcard-worthy setting, between the Eiffel Tower and Place du Trocadéro.

An anthology show. On Monday, August 5, the atmosphere at the Champions Park of the Paris 2024 Olympic Games was just right to welcome the heroes of all nations. After being closed for a few days, the medallists of the last three days were honoured by the thousands of spectators who flocked to the foot of the Eiffel Tower.

On Monday, a large number of French athletes gathered on the promontory. The French judokas, led by Teddy Riner, the BMX cyclists, authors of a historic treble, the road cyclists, the archers and the fencers... there was something for everyone! International athletes included Serbian tennis player Novak Djokovic and Hungarian swimmer Kristof Milak.
