Paris 2024 Olympics: why the opening ceremony blocks the sale of train tickets in three stations. The opening ceremony of the Olympic Games will not take place in a stadium but on the Seine.

The SNCF is thus blocking the sales of tickets departing from or arriving at the Paris-Gare de Lyon, Paris-Bercy and Austerlitz stations on July 26. By noon, the public group had already sold 800,000 tickets, he announced. The Trainline platform recorded an increase in reservations of 115% on this first day.
