The high point of a festive and unifying summer

Emotions, records, celebrations, thrills... the Paralympic Games promise to be just as festive and spectacular as the Olympic Games! As with all great spectacles, Paris, France and the world will close a grandiose summer with an exceptional finale. To this end, Paris will celebrate the 4,400 Para athletes from the 168 Paralympic delegations at the Paralympic Games Closing Ceremony, a 3-hour show running from 8.30pm to 11.30pm. After the protocol sequences, the athletes' parade and the passing of the flag from Paris 2024 to Los Angeles 2028, Paris 2024 will offer the public a final open-air party in the legendary setting of the Stade de France.

The French electronic scene in the spotlight

Paris knows how to party, and has even been a pioneer in the field. The capital saw the birth of the first clubs, places of artistic expression and freedom, which thrilled all those they welcomed. True ambassadors of our culture at major global gatherings, French electronic artists have conquered the world. They are the heirs to the long history of celebration and music that has made Paris a global cultural and festive beacon. So, on September 8, all we have to do is enjoy an exceptional musical show spanning the generations of these successful artists.
