WHAT FACILITIES WILL THERE BE?

Temporary facilities will offer an exceptional and truly historical setting for certain sporting events during Paris 2024. A temporary quarry flanked by several grandstands will be set up at the Royal Star, an esplanade to the west of the Grand Canal, in the heart of the Château de Versailles grounds.

Capacity : 15,000 or 40,000 spectators depending on the event.

 

LEGACY

At the end of the Games, the temporary installations will be dismantled without leaving a trace.

The Château de Versailles will always be a cultural venue with a global reputation, welcoming millions of visitors every year.

Practical information

The Fountains Show and the Royal Serenade are freely accessible without a Games Pass (QR Code).

Tickets for the Olympic and Paralympic events only give access to the Olympic events and not to the shows.

To make travelling easier, we advise you to prepare your visit as well as possible.

On days when the Olympic events are taking place, there may be a large number of people travelling to and from Versailles.

We recommend that you use public transport and allow for longer journey times on days when the events are taking place.
