PARIS (AP) — The final act of the Paralympics in Paris will be a giant dance party.

That’s a promise from Thomas Jolly, the artistic director of the opening and closing ceremonies for this year's Olympics and Paralympics.

Jolly says 24 DJs will perform thumping techno and dance music at the Stade de France on Sunday as the curtain falls on the 2024 Paralympics.

“We want to turn the Stade de France into the biggest dance floor to celebrate the end of the Paralympics,” Jolly told The Associated Press in an interview.
