From August 27 to September 2, come and watch the Internations de France squash tournament on the esplanade of the Palais de Tokyo, opposite the Eiffel Tower!

Are there any squash fans in the room? You're in for a treat this late summer, from August 27 to September 2, 2023, as a major competition is set to take place opposite the Eiffel Tower, on theesplanade of the Palais de Tokyo, for memorable matches in an idyllic setting! In front of the Iron Lady, the 96 best players in the world will compete for one of the most prestigious titles of the season, on the Paris Squash Alpine.

This racket sport, very popular in the capital's clubs, is played on a court surrounded by walls or glass, and consists of hitting a small black ball in tennis style, to prevent the opponent from retrieving it . For the first time in almost 40 years, the capital will host a major event on the professional squash circuit, the equivalent of a Grand Slam in tennis.

While the main event is ticketed and takes place in front of the Eiffel Tower, you can attend the 1st and 2nd round matches free of charge, at the Jeu de Paume, the Squash Club Montmartre and the Stade Français! For those who can't make it, don't worry: the quarter-finals, semi-finals and finals will be broadcast live on L'Équipe live.
