2024 Summer Paralympics national flag bearers

During the Parade of Nations at the opening ceremony of the 2024 Summer Paralympic Games, athletes from each participating country paraded in the Stade de France, preceded by its flag and placard carrier. Each flag bearer had been chosen either by the nation's National Paralympic Committee (NPC) or by the athletes themselves to represent their country. It is considered a great honour to bear the country's flag in the Parade of Nations.
