The Chateauroux Shooting Centre will welcome the 340 Olympic athletes and the 160 Paralympic athletes competing in shooting events during the Paris 2024 Games. Inaugurated by the French Shooting Federation in 2018, this unique venue is one of the largest of its kind in Europe. Equipped with several shooting ranges and therefore capable of hosting all shooting events at the Games, the centre gained a new “finals” building in 2022, which means it can now accommodate international pistol and rifle finals. This building will host all indoor shooting finals during the Paris 2024 Games.
In July 2022, the Paris 2024 Board of Directors approved plans to make the Chateauroux Shooting Centre a competition venue for the Paris 2024 Games. The centre will be used for 15 Olympic shooting events and 13 Paralympic shooting events in 2024.
Legacy
The Chateauroux Shooting Centre will continue to be used for international shooting events after the Games.
