The Paris 2024 Paralympics concluded with a sparkling closing ceremony on Sunday to round off a fantastic summer of sport in the French capital.

Twenty-four artists from the French electronic music scene led a party atmosphere despite heavy rain at the Stade de France in front of 4,400 athletes from 168 Paralympic delegations.

Chief Paris 2024 organiser Tony Estanguet said the Games and the Olympics had created a "historic summer".

The former Olympic canoeist Estanguet added "France had a date with history, and the country showed up" and said 2024 will be "etched in people's memories".
