The Paris 2024 Summer Paralympic Games will take place from Wednesday August 28th to Sunday September 8th 2024.
Blind football, wheelchair basketball, shooting, archery, rugby, taekwondo and many more sports where the determination, skill and self-improvement of the world’s best Paralympians will be on full display.
More than 4,000 athletes and sportsmen will participate across 549 events covering a range of disabilities.
Spain will take more than 150 athletes and sportsmen to Paris for the Paralympics.
Judoka Marta Arce and table tennis player Álvaro Valera will be the main flag-bearers of Spain’s Olympic delegation, which aims to surpass the 36 medals they obtained at the previous Paralympics in Tokyo in 2021.
For the first time, Spanish Paralympians who win medals will be given the same financial bonus as their Olympic counterparts.
