France was the host nation of the 2024 Summer Olympics in Paris from 26 July to 11 August 2024. French athletes have appeared in every Summer Olympic Games of the modern era, alongside Australia, Great Britain, Greece, and Switzerland.

For France, the games began with good news two days before the opening ceremony when the IOC awarded the French Alps the 2030 Winter Olympics, returning the Winter Olympics to its birthplace after 38 years;[1] the opening ceremony will take place on 1 February 2030.

The French Olympic Committee fielded a strong number of 573 athletes, becoming the nation's largest delegation since the 1900 Olympics, also held in Paris. It ended with 64 medals, 16 being gold, and finished in the top 5 position for the first time since the 1996 Summer Olympics.
