In August 2026, the Olympic Aquatics Centre of Saint-Denis will host a major competition, the European Swimming Championships. From July 31 to August 16, several events will take place in this highly modern venue, a legacy of the Paris 2024 Olympic Games. To mark the occasion, the city is setting up a genuine fan zone to welcome as many supporters as possible and to share the excitement throughout the competition!
Open from 10 a.m. to 8 p.m. July 31 to August 6, then from 8 a.m. to 10 p.m. August 10 to 16, this friendly village atmosphere brings together the official partners’ booths for the European Championships, along with a wide range of activities and entertainment for all ages: games, quizzes about the world of swimming, autograph sessions with athletes, a photo booth to capture your visit, a relaxation area, fun challenges and other surprises.
Note that no large screens are planned on site, so you won’t be able to watch the competition live while you’re there. Several food trucks and dining areas will also be on site if you want to spend several hours without your stomach rumbling. For free admission, simply book your spot in advance on the dedicated ticketing page.
