Perhaps you were among those who criticized the Paris 2024 Games mascot when it was first presented to the public... But a few days at the heart of the event were enough to make you appreciate this Phryge, who has many adventures during the competition, both in the capital and in Tahiti! So much so, in fact, that many visitors began buying merchandise for the Phrygian, ranging from plush toys and socks to pins, tote bags and the famous Phrygian cap!
A real success for this adorable red emblem, which sets the mood when it travels. Good to know: during these Games, there are 33 mascots, brought to life by 200 actors, who can't stay more than 30 minutes under this rather cumbersome costume, according to Pierre Godon, journalist at France Info. The adventures of Phryge, who resembles the Martine book series, are so much more lively than our own summer!
