Poland competed at the 2024 Summer Olympics in Paris from 26 July to 11 August 2024, celebrating the centenary of the team's debut in the same venue. Polish athletes have appeared in every edition of the Summer Olympic Games from 1924 onwards, except for the 1984 Summer Olympics because of the Soviet boycott.
The Polish national representation won a total of 10 medals (1 gold, 4 silver, 5 bronze) in 9 different sports and was ranked 42nd in the medal table, the lowest place in the country's history of participation in the Summer Olympics. 8 medals were won by female athletes while 2 medals were won by male athletes. The number of both gold was Poland's lowest since 1956, and total medals was lowest since 2004.
Notable achievements of Polish athletes include tennis player Iga Świątek's bronze medal in the women's singles event, which made her the first Pole in history to win an Olympic medal in tennis. Julia Szeremeta, who won the silver medal in boxing, became the first Polish female boxer to claim an Olympic medal in this sport. Aleksandra Mirosław set a new world record of 6.06 seconds in speed climbing and subsequently won the historic first Olympic gold medal in this event. The silver medal won by the Poland men's national volleyball team marked the first time in 48 years since the team's last Olympic medal in Montreal 1976 when Poland won gold. Weronika Lizakowska set a new national record of 3:57.31 in the 1,500 meter event, which previously belonged to Lidia Chojecka. Another new national record was set by Alicja Konieczek in the 3000 metres steeplechase who achieved 9:16.51 and improved the record previously held by Wioletta Frankiewicz.
On the 100th anniversary of the official participation of Polish athletes at the Olympic Games, the Polish Olympic Committee inaugurated the first ever Polish House (Maison Polonaise), which was located in the Bois de Boulogne in Paris. The opening ceremony was attended by President of Poland Andrzej Duda. The house served as a meeting place for Polish Olympians, journalists and supporters and hosted events promoting Poland and Polish sport.
Double Olympic Champion, Tomasz Majewski, was appointed as the nation's chef de mission for the Paris Olympic Games.
