In the presence of three-time Olympic champion and International Olympic Committee member Tony Estanguet, the President of Paris 2024, and medal winners on their return from the Tokyo 2020 Games, Woodkid is set to perform a free concert for which he has composed original music. 

The Games return to France one hundred years after the last Summer Olympics to be held in the country.

The official handover will take place during the Closing Ceremony at Tokyo 2020 in Japan.

The French public has been invited to participate in the festivities by visiting the Live des Jeux fan zone at the Trocadero in Paris.

Paris 2024 will present a unique 12-minute artistic sequence, offering a taste of what to expect in three years’ time.

This sequence will take place simultaneously in Tokyo and in Paris. 

The climax of the ceremony will be Woodkid's free concert, which will be performed against the backdrop of the Eiffel Tower.

Woodkid has three Grammy nominations and will perform tracks from his albums, The Golden Age and S16.
