Sunday, August 25, 2024 Following the monumental success of the Paris Olympic Games, excitement is reaching new heights as the city prepares to host the Paralympic Games for the first time. Set to begin on August 28, 2024, this historic event will open with a spectacular ceremony between the iconic Champs-Elysées and the Place de la Concorde. The ceremony, crafted by the renowned artistic director Thomas Jolly, promises to captivate audiences with the same flair and creativity that defined the Olympic opening in July.
Paris, having basked in the glow of the Olympic Games, is now ready to embrace the Paralympics with open arms. The enthusiasm among locals and tourists alike is palpable, as people eagerly secure their tickets to witness this extraordinary event.

Tourists from around the globe are also flocking to Paris, with many already present as the Paralympics approach. The international appeal of the Games is evident, with strong ticket sales coming from countries such as the United Kingdom, Germany, the United States, Belgium, and the Netherlands. The demand for tickets has been nothing short of remarkable.
A total of 2.5 million tickets have been made available for the Paralympic Games, and as of Wednesday, over 1.75 million have already been sold.
