The Château de Versailles is also getting into the Olympic spirit, just a few months ahead of the Paris 2024 Olympic and Paralympic Games, where the equestrian and pentathlon events will take place. From February to June 2023, the royal estate invited families and young adults under the age of 25 to take part in its own art-based Olympics. Here, no swimming, fencing, horse-riding, running or shooting, but visual arts, literature, writing, architecture and music, duringintroductory workshops!
In 2024, all these Olympiads are reserved for schoolchildren, but on June 8 and 9, over the course of a weekend, families will be able to discover new events, to celebrate the shared values of sport and art. Compose your own pentathlon and test your talents in five unusual twenty-minute workshops, to choose from among the ten on offer, with your children aged 7 and over!
Bookings open on Friday, May 3, 2024. Don't miss it!
