The Venue

The inclusion of Sport Climbing at the Olympic Games illustrates the fresh approach that Paris 2024 added to its Games: showcasing a modern sport practised in an area with a young population in order to promote maximum participation. Along with the Olympic Aquatics Centre in Saint-Denis, the Le Bourget Sport Climbing venue has been the only sports facility to be built specifically for Paris 2024. Looking well beyond the Paris Games, this facility represented a response to a need and an expectation in the Seine-Saint-Denis area.

Five climbing walls have been used during the Games: one indoor for warming up, and four outdoor walls – three for competitions and one set aside for competitors to warm up on.

The indoor facilities provided a lasting legacy for the Games in a department that has a major shortage of sports facilities and was ranked 103rd out of 105 departments.

Legacy

The indoor facilities created for the Games has been left as a legacy for the city of Le Bourget and will be used on a daily basis by local clubs, associations and residents. The temporary Climbing walls set up could, in the same way as the temporary swimming pools for the Games or the La Concorde urban sports structures, be redeployed at different sites, benefiting local associations, clubs and communities.
