Grand Palais to Reopen as Temporary Home for Olympics and Centre Pompidou in Paris
The Grand Palais des Champs-Elysées, a monumental venue with a rich history, underwent a €466m renovation by Chatillon Architectes and is set to reopen for the Paris 2024 Olympics. The restoration respects the original designs of the building’s architects and features a new entrance, Art Nouveau details, and a coral-colored thermo-concrete floor. The venue has previously hosted remarkable art exhibitions and will continue to do so post-Olympics. The Grand Palais’s reopening celebrations will include various events and exhibitions, showcasing its versatility as a space for large-scale events.
