Its purpose is to host exhibitions while the Grand Palais is being renovated for the 2024 Summer Olympics. The Grand Palais Éphémère will host the Judo and Wrestling events at the 2024 Summer Olympics. GL events, the events organisation major, is the concessionaire for the ephemeral Grand Palais. It maintains and manages the resale of the building.
