Paris 2024 Olympic Games: cycling track, BMX and pentathlon at the National Velodrome

While Paris has qualified to host the 2024 Olympics, we invite you to discover the venues where the events will take place.

  • Venue: National Velodrome

Originally designed for the 2012 Olympics, the National Velodrome was opened in 2014 in Saint-Quentin-en-Yvelines. This is a new venue for track cycling, for which the 2015 World Championship was organized, and BMX with a covered and illuminated track. It will remain in place after the Olympic and Paralympic Games.

  • Sports: track cycling, BMX and modern pentathlon.

The venue will host all of the British-dominated track cycling events at the 2012 and 2016 Olympics, as well as BMX. It will also be the venue for modern pentathlon fencing competitions.

  • Spectator capacity

The National Velodrome has a capacity of 5,000 seats. The BMX Pit can accommodate 7,000 spectators.

  • Condition of equipment: built, redevelopment is planned

The installation has already been completed. Only the BMX track will be redesigned for the Olympics.
