Ready to climb the collectors' podium? If so, head to the Maison du sport français(Paris 13th), on April 13, 2025 at 2pm, where Vermot & Associés is organizing an auction of over 200 objects that lit up the Paris 2024 Olympic and Paralympic Games. But there's no question of diving in headfirst without reconnoitring the terrain! Over the weekend of April 12-13, future buyers will be able to admire these treasures on the starting line at a free exhibition open to the public. On Saturday, from 11am to 6pm, then on Sunday, from 11am to 12pm, to fine-tune your strategy before the big jump in the afternoon!
Who hasn't dreamed of walking away with an Olympic trophy? This time, you don't have to win a medal - you just have to be the highest bidder. Among the nuggets up for grabs are five torches from the torch relay, a cauldron used to carry the sacred fire, and the Paris Games flag that has flown higher than the Eiffel Tower... in the International Space Station, thanks to Thomas Pesquet.
Fashion enthusiasts and those nostalgic for the grand tableaux of the opening ceremony will be able to adorn themselves in the most iconic costumes. Marie-Antoinette's dress, seen in Gojira's painting at the Conciergerie, will be on show, as will the masked flame-bearers ' outfits and the crown and garlands worn by a blue Philippe Katerine . And for die-hard Phrygian fans, the absolute Grail will be auctioned off: a complete costume of the official mascot. Estimated at between 500 and 600 euros, you might just have to sprint for it!
Beyond the thrill of the bidding, this sale is also about solidarity. All proceeds will be donated to associations that promote the values of sport: Cami Sport et Cancer promotes sports therapy in hospitals, and Premiers de cordée develops the hopi-sport program. Finally, part of the proceeds will help organize the Wheelchair Soccer World Cup.
So who will light the auction flame and walk away with a legendary souvenir of the Paris 2024 Games?
