On September 14, Paris hosts the Fête du sport: a free day of events, demonstrations and outdoor activities for all ages
Every year on September 14, Paris comes alive with the Fête du sport, a major national event launched in 2025 and now a must-attend. The event celebrates sport in all its forms: free street events, introductions to urban and Olympic sports, wellness workshops, demonstrations by top athletes and festive moments for all ages. In the capital, the festival takes on a spectacular air, with swimming in the Seine, activities on the rue de Rivoli transformed into a giant playground, and meetings with clubs and associations. Part of the legacy of the Paris 2024 Games, this day celebrates sport as a vector for connection, inclusion and celebration, at the heart of Paris' most beautiful public spaces.
