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 , held in Paris. It ended with 64 medals, 16 being gold, and finished in the top 5 positions for the first time since the 1996 Summer Olympics.

Badminton

Delphine Delrue and Thom Gicquel qualified for the mixed double through their ranking, as did Anne Tran and Margot Lambert for the Women's doubles.[16] Ronan Labar and Lucas Corvée were supposed to be the first French pair at the race after the 2024 European Championships,[17] but an error from the Badminton World Federation saw them recompute the rankings, and qualified the Popov brothers' pair instead.[18] France has two single quotas, being the host nation, with names to be announced after the 2024 European Badminton Championships. With their performances at the Championships, Toma Junior Popov and Xuefei Qi qualified.[19] Lucas Corvée and Ronan Labar qualified through an appeal on a ranking calculation error.[citation needed]
