The International Paralympic Committee (IPC) has approved 22 sports for inclusion in the LA28 Paralympic Games.

The 22 sports include badminton and taekwondo, which were staged for the first time at Tokyo 2020. The same 22 sports will be contested at Paris 2024.

Additionally LA28 organisers have also been given the opportunity to explore the inclusion of para climbing or para surfing on the programme, and if these sports are put forward for consideration, a final decision will be taken by the IPC Governing Board by the end of 2023
