Why is there more than one Paralympic Flame?
Unlike the Olympic Flame, several Paralympic Flames can be lit at once, a unique innovation for the Paralympic movement.



A total of 12 Flames will be lit on its arrival in Calais, symbolizing the energy of the 12 days of the first Summer Paralympic Games in France: the lighting of the cauldron on August 28, 2024, and the 11 days of competition.
