Behind the scenes at the Games
For a few weeks, the whole world had its eyes fixed on this neighbourhood. Athletes from all corners of the globe, delegations, journalists, volunteers… The Athletes’ Village had become a veritable small town at the heart of the Paris 2024 Games.
Today, the medals have been put away, the delegations have left and calm has returned. But traces of the Games are still there. With our fantastic guides (some of whom were in the Village during the Games), explore the venues that hosted the athletes and immerse yourself once more in the atmosphere of this extraordinary event. Where did the champions sleep? How was their daily routine organised? What went on behind the scenes of the footage you saw on television?
As the tour progresses, discover too the incredible transformation of this eco-neighbourhood. For the Athletes’ Village wasn’t built to disappear after the Games: it was designed from the outset to become a new part of the city.
Homes, green spaces, shops, facilities and new community spaces have gradually replaced the temporary installations. This is an opportunity to understand how a former Olympic Village becomes a real neighbourhood, designed to welcome its residents for the long term.
Set against a backdrop of memories still fresh in the mind and the neighbourhood’s new lease of life, this tour tells a different story of the Games: that of their legacy.
