For many years now, the Paralympic Games have been less well regarded than the Olympic Games, and less in the spotlight. And yet, this Olympiad, which showcases disabled sport and particularly deserving athletes with poignant and fascinating life stories, is just as exceptional as its big sister! If you fled the capital before the Games and regret it, or if you're back just before the summer break, take advantage of this second wave of Games to take part too!
It wasn't until the1988 Seoul Games that the Paralympic Games were held at the same venues as the Olympic Games, two weeks after the latter. In Sydney in 2000, 1.2 million entry tickets were sold and 300 million television viewers were able to see images of the Paralympic Games! In London in 2012, 2.7 million tickets were sold, and media coverage has continued to grow ever since.
In the French capital, most of the Olympic fan zones will remain open for the occasion, and will offer an equally exceptional program of events, to continue this incredible popular celebration! You won't even have time to miss the Olympic Games, as you'll have to switch over again to watch the events on television!
