Paris 2024 Olympics: fan zone in Saint-Quentin-en-Yvelines, Ofenbach concert and drone show for opening ceremony

For the Paris 2024 Olympic Games, the Île de loisirs de Saint-Quentin-en-Yvelines is being transformed into one of the main fan zones, open from July 27 to August 11, promising free access and festivities for all. The program includes an exceptional opening night with the DJ Ofenbach duo, followed by Vincent Vinel and Broken Back later in the season.

Yvelines, the second largest Olympic territory after Seine-Saint-Denis, is planning to celebrate with the setting up of Club 2024 on the Saint-Quentin-en-Yvelines leisure base. Scheduled from July 27 to 29 and again from August 1 to 11, 2024, this giant spot, will be one of around 30 fan zones announced in the Paris region, underlining the ambition to celebrate the Olympic Games in a spirit of sharing and proximity. Strategically positioned at the crossroads of Trappes, Élancourt, and Montigny-le-Bretonneux, this free fan zone will be able to accommodate up to 5,000 people daily, enough to celebrate the Olympic Games as they should be, with joy and good humor.

And what's more, there'll be plenty of entertainment on site. In addition to some 30 sporting events and demonstrations featuring climbing, rollerblading, golf, BMX and soccer from 2pm to 6pm, a cultural and educational area will also be set up, featuring giant games, DIY workshops and the creation of a giant fresco. A foodcourt will be open non-stop from 12pm to 10pm, offering visitors the chance to grab a bite to eat or a drink.

In addition, a space will be dedicated to #MadeinSQY to showcase the expertise of local players with :

A showroom area where companies can exhibit their innovations, such as the OVSQ's model rockets and satellites, or the Urbanloop capsule, an innovative means of transport tested on the Ile de Loisirs.
Activities for visitors: juice bikes, arcade terminals, demonstrations of wheelchair motorization systems...
An area selling local produce.

Club 2024 aims to go beyond simply watching the competitions. Visitors will be able to immerse themselves in the Olympic world thanks to giant screens showing live broadcasts of the events, meetings with athletes, sports initiations for all ages, not forgetting concerts and a "guinguette" atmosphere for eating and relaxing. Laurent Mazaury, Vice-Chairman of the Saint-Quentin-en-Yvelines urban community, insists on making this fan zone a lively place, reflecting the cultural and economic wealth of Saint-Quentin-en-Yvelines.

An exceptional opening night with OFENBACH

With this in mind, an exceptional opening night awaits us on Saturday, July 27. Imagine an amazing drone show in the air and a concert by international DJ duo OFENBACH in the heart of the green space - it's an evening that promises to be grandiose.

And that's not all, because on Saturday August 3, it's the turn of Vincent Vinel and Broken Back, the "Talent SQY", to set the Fan Zone alight with a lively concert.

To ensure optimum accessibility to this place of celebration, a free autonomous shuttle service will link the large leisure base parking lot with the Canardières sector, facilitating the flow of visitors. This transportation initiative, active from July 26 to 29 and again from August 1 to 11, 2024, from noon to 10:30 pm, guarantees a seamless experience for taking part in the festivities. Several exceptional evenings are currently being programmed.

The location of this fan zone, within theÎle de loisirs, was not chosen at random. A veritable showcase of greenery, it lies in the immediate vicinity of several key Olympic sites such as the Vélodrome National, the BMX stadium, the hill of Élancourt and the Golf National, reinforcing the link between spectators and sporting action. In short, it's a great place to enjoy the Olympics and have fun at the same time.

Club 2024 promises to be a festive event for sports enthusiasts and families in search of good deals. Free and open to all, it promises a wide range of activities and food in an electrifying atmosphere. With this ambitious project, theÎle de loisirs de Saint-Quentin-en-Yvelines is gearing up to be one of the key venues for celebrating the Paris 2024 Olympic Games.
