Paris Olympics 2024: Everything You Need To Know About the Only Purpose-Built Arena, A Testament to Sustainable Choices

With only 142 days to go until the 2024 Paris Olympics, the city is busy inaugurating renovated venues to welcome some 10,000 Olympic athletes and around 5000 para-athletes to its exquisitely constructed Olympic village on July 12. With the promise of unmatched experience, Paris has spent past years transforming its iconic monuments into athletic arenas.

A prime example is the trending Adidas Arena, which was the only venue constructed specifically for the Summer Olympics that embodies sustainability and sets the standard for modern culture. Following the official statement made to highlight its green image, here’s all you need to know!

Know the Paris Olympics 2024 arena

The Adidas Arena, built as part of the 2024 Olympic and Paralympic Games, was officially inaugurated on February 11, 2024. This Parisian arena is described as the “benchmark venue for urban cultures where music, sport, culture, and lifestyle meet for all.” Talking about its sustainability features, 2024 Paris Olympics Sports event manager, Louis Knusmann, said, “all the 8000 seats inside the venue have been made from recycled plastic bottle caps. The building has solar panels that provide electricity. There is also a garden on the venue’s rooftop,” reported by RFI.

Most events are positioned in such a manner that competing athletes have some iconic places to soak in the backdrop. Like the Accor Arena and Paris La Défense Arena, the Adidas Arena is also positioned to make a significant impact on the landscape of cultural and athletic events in Paris. It can accommodate 8,000 spectators for sporting events and 9,000 for concerts.

This multimodal space will play host to competitions in rhythmic gymnastics and badminton during the Olympics, as well as para powerlifting and badminton during the Paralympics. Meanwhile, some other popular sports like volleyball, handball, martial arts, skateboarding, and KSW combat might be seen taking place in the same venue. In addition, the Olympic Village flair also pumped up the topic of global warming being well considered by the city.

With an emphasis on sustainability, the village will use renewable geothermal heating and low-carbon concrete.
