Find out all the information about fencing in these Paris 2024 Olympic Games.
Fencing is still one of the main vectors of medals in the Olympic Games for France and it should continue once again this year for the 2024 Olympic Games. The fencing events will take place over nine days in an absolutely fabulous setting at the Grand Palais in Paris. Twelve Olympic titles, including six individual ones, will be awarded from Saturday, July 27 to Sunday, August 4.
In Tokyo, France won five medals, including two gold. Its best total since the Athens Games in 2004. Apart from judo (8 podiums), no French delegation has done better in recent Summer Olympics.

09:14 – Thibus against all odds
Tokyo Olympic vice-champion Ysaora Thibus will indeed take part in the Foil event today. However, the Frenchwoman almost missed the competition after a very eventful few months. The world champion was caught in an abnormal doping test in January before being cleared in the first instance. A request for a 4-year sanction (non-suspensive) was made against her. This did not dissuade the foil fencer from competing in these fourth Olympic Games.
