Archery - Summer Games 2024 Tickets

The archery events at the 2024 Summer Games in Paris will take place at the Esplanade des Invalides. This location is notable for its historical significance and central location in the city. The Esplanade des Invalides, characterized by its north-south orientation and flanked by rows of trees, will provide a unique and picturesque setting for both the archery and para archery events, enhancing the experience for both athletes and spectators​.

The Esplanade des Invalides is a large space located in front of the iconic 17th century Hôtel des Invalides, which lies in the heart of the French capital. This site holds a deep military and cultural history. The Hôtel des Invalides was originally built as a hospital and home for disabled war veterans and has since evolved into a complex of buildings serving various functions, including housing several museums and a church where Napoleon Bonaparte's tomb is located​.

During the Olympics, from July 25th to August 4th, 128 archers (64 for each gender) will compete across five events on this historic ground. The competitions will take place in a specially constructed venue, allowing the integration of this ancient sport into the heart of Paris, surrounded by a rich military and cultural backdrop​.

Hosting the archery events at Les Invalides not only offers a splendid visual experience but also bridges the gap between the historical heritage of the location and the modern Olympic spirit, creating a memorable experience for both participants and audiences
