Mont Valérien Sports centre
Host to a university campus (Université Paris Nanterre), the site of the local authority administration (préfecture) of Hauts-de-Seine, Nanterre is situated a mere 11 kilometers from Hôtel de Ville de Paris and its historic heart.
As an olympic venue in the Paris candidacy for the 2024 Oympics, Nanterre will organise the swimming and para-swimming events, along with the final waterpolo tournament. The town can boast a range of undoubted assets that will contribute to the success of the Paris games : a young and dynamic town, on the map in sports, environmentally vigilant, the town is also at the heart of an ongoing and forward-looking economic dynamic, thanks to the presence on the territory of Nanterre of La Défense, the business pole of the Paris metropolis.
Nanterre is also the location of one of the major universities of the Paris metropolitan region. Université Paris-Nanterre is a pluridisciplinary campus, centred notably on economics and law, on the human and social sciences. From its creation, the university has fostered a culture of on-campus sporting activities, along with the educational provisions for elite sportswomen and men, research and training in the area of sport and health. The intention of the University is, in assocation with the Town of Nanterre, to ensure both the inclusive dimension and quality of our joint candidacy.
In addition to the Paris-la Défense Arena venue, the largest covered sports facility in Europe, Nanterre has on its municipal territory a number of high-quality venues and amenities. We can mention the vast Maurice-Thorez mutli-sports complex, located close to the Nanterre Town-Hall, and the multi-sports Chenevreux gymnasium, listed here among the preparation venues for the games, along with the judo and weight-lifting amenities offered by the Univeristy.
