Paris 2024 Paralympic Games Closing Ceremony: Full playlist
On Sunday 8 September, the Closing Ceremony of the Paris 2024 Paralympic Games officially drew 11 days of competition to a close.
Called Paris est une fête, the ceremony, directed by Thomas Jolly and designed by Romain Pissenem, paid tribute to the 4,400 athletes who took part.
But the ceremony also highlighted the history of electronic music and of Paris as a city of celebration and culture.
Parisian nightlife has always been a source of artistic inspiration as well as acting as a source of freedom, inclusion and of putting differences aside, and the ceremony took a global audience through an odyssey of French music.
Here is the full playlist of the Paris 2024 Paralympic Games Closing Ceremony, including the tracklist of the 24 DJs who performed the memorable show The Journey of the Wave.
