On Location is the official hospitality provider for the Paris 2024 Olympic and Paralympic Games, and their packages offer once-in-a-lifetime seating at events, as well as premium hospitality.
For an event as magnificent as the Olympics and Paralympics, it’s normal to not know where to start in physically being a part of the activities. But, it is possible to attend events and dine in exclusive spots like the Eiffel Tower while the games are taking place. With three package offerings you can watch track and field, and sailing, as well as dine at one the City of Lights most iconic locations.
"We are excited to offer guests these once-in-a-lifetime hospitality experiences that disrupt the mold of traditional hospitality. From being in the thick of the action at the finish line of track and field events to watching sailing right on the water, to special entertainment in the Gustave Eiffel Lounge, our guests will leave with lasting memories from their time at the Olympic Games Paris 2024,” says Will Whiston, Executive Vice President of the Olympic and Paralympic Games for On Location.
