the memory book of a magical summer

The opening ceremony in the rain, the voice of Céline Dion resounding from the top of the Eiffel Tower, the Stade de France going crazy for Armand Duplantis, the swimming public finding its new idol in Léon Marchand and judo crying with joy for Teddy Riner… These are all images that the French will not soon forget. And to make the memory last, the Hugo Sport publishing house has found the ideal gift. The official book of the Paris 2024 Olympic Games, composed of the most beautiful photos taken by AFP, retraces in images these two weeks of sporting exploits and immense happiness.

There we find the triplet of the tricolor BMX, the coronation of the triathlete Cassandre Beaugrand, the feats of the Lebrun brothers or the fencing medals in a majestic Grand Palais. But also funny, unusual or romantic moments. By browsing the more than 300 pages of this book, the reader will immerse themselves in this global event, which began in Marseille with the launch of the torch relay and then passed throughout mainland France and its territories. The start of a long journey which ended with the lighting of the magnificent Olympic cauldron, by the greatest French champions in the Tuileries garden before it took flight into the sky of the capital.
