The Paralympic Games is expected to reach its largest audience this summer, as organisers confirmed a record number of countries have agreed broadcast deals for Paris 2024.

With six months to go until the Games, the International Paralympic Committee said “more than” 160 nations had confirmed agreements to televise the event, compared to a total of 115 for the London Paralympics of 2012. Total broadcast revenues have also increased, according to the IPC, up by more than 20% on the Tokyo Games of 2021.
