Pau, the charming town in south-west France, is ready to establish itself as a Preparation Centre for the Paris 2024 Olympic Games. This recognition, gained following the award of the \"Land of Games\" label in 2019, underlines the city's commitment to sport for all and highlights the schemes to promote physical activity and sport. With 15 venues and 20 disciplines selected, Pau is positioning itself as a major player in the preparation of athletes for the Olympic Games.
\nPau has been selected to host preparations for 20 different Olympic disciplines, reflecting the diversity of top-level sport. The disciplines range from basketball and slalom canoeing to breakdancing, fencing, soccer, swimming, tennis and many more. With 16 sports facilities already selected and capable of hosting these disciplines, the city offers top-quality facilities for Olympic teams to optimise their preparation.
\nPau is actively preparing for the Paris 2024 Olympic Games with a host of international events. Between now and the end of November, the city is co-organising 4 major events. From 27 to 31 October, it's the prestigious \"Les 5 Etoiles de Pau\" equestrian competition that will take center stage. Followed by women's rugby with France v New Zealand on November 13, tennis with the Teréga Open Pau Pyrénées from November 15 to 31, and finally the men's basketball World Cup qualifiers with France v Montenegro on November 26. These international events reinforce Pau's reputation as a leading sports center.
\nThis selection to become a Preparation Centre for the Paris 2024 Olympic Games testifies to the quality of Pau's sports facilities. In addition to their tourist appeal, these top-class facilities have already hosted major international events such as the Canoeing-Kayaking World Cup and the \"Les 5 Etoiles de Pau\" International Eventing Competition for equestrians. Pau has established itself as a sporting capital, ready to host international matches in various disciplines such as rugby, basketball and handball.
\nPau is thus preparing to shine alongside the Olympic athletes, offering a setting conducive to preparation and sporting excellence. This selection is a promising step in the promotion of the \"Land of Games\" label and in highlighting Pau as the capital of sport, ready to welcome the world for the Paris 2024 Olympic Games.
