[HIGHLIGHTS] Inauguration of the Olympic aquatic center in Saint-Denis: what will it be used for after the Games?

Olympic Aquatic Center (CAO) will host the water polo, diving and synchronized swimming competitions during the Paris Games this summer. Its opening to the general public is not planned until June 2025 after work aimed at adapting its use after the competition.

If the swimming events will take place at the La Défense Arena, the CAO will be “the only durable equipment created specifically for the Olympics”, underlines Patrick Ollier (LR). The Métropole du Grand Paris (MGP), which he chairs, is the contracting authority for this 147 million euro facility.
