Travelers to France should remain cautious through the summer, particularly in the Île-de-France region and the capital of Paris, due to security concerns raised by the 2024 Paris Olympic and Paralympic Games.
SafeAbroad analysts have assessed the 2024 Paris Olympics and Paralympics to be a moderate risk at this time. With 10,500 athletes from 206 National Olympic Committees competing across 41 venues, the Games promise to attract a massive audience, with an estimated 15 million visitors expected in Paris alone. Security concerns for travelers encompass a heightened risk of terrorism, geopolitical conflicts, and local tensions.
