At the 2024 Summer Paralympics, which country won the most gold medals?

The story behind the answer

China won the most gold medals at the 2024 Summer Paralympics.

The Paris Games took place from 28 August to 8 September 2024 and featured athletes from around the world competing across 22 sports. China finished first in the medal table with 94 gold medals, ahead of Great Britain and the United States.

China has been a leading Paralympic sporting nation for decades. It first competed at the Summer Paralympics in 1984 and has topped the overall gold-medal table at every Summer Paralympics since Athens 2004. Its strongest results have traditionally come in sports such as athletics, swimming, table tennis, badminton and powerlifting.

The medal table ranks countries primarily by gold medals, followed by silver and bronze when totals are tied. This means the country with the most total medals is not always the country placed first. At Paris 2024, China’s leading position was based on its gold-medal total, making “China” the single answer to this question.
