When to watch track and field during the 2024 Paris Paralympic Games
Track and field events will be held from Friday, August 30 to Saturday, September 8 at the 2024 Paris Paralympic Games.
The number of track and field events held at the Paralympic Games is staggering. Due to the number of impairment classifications and the popularity of the sport, a race like the men's 100m final at an Olympic Games translates to upwards of 30 individual 100m finals at the Paralympic Games.
All physical, vision and intellectual impairment classifications have participated in track and field Paralympic competition since the first edition in Rome in 1960.
Athlete classifications are made up from a letter and a number. The letter T refers to track and jumping events, while an F denotes field events. Refer to the table below for details on which numbers correspond to a particular Paralympic impairment classifications.
| 11-13 | Athletes with vision impairment. |
| 20 | Athletes with intellectual impairment. |

| 40-47 | Athletes who are of short stature, upper limb competing with prosthesis or equivalent, lower limb competing with prosthesis or equivalent. |
| T51-54 | Athletes who compete in wheelchair track events. |
