The mixed doubles badminton tournament at the 2024 Summer Olympics took place from 27 July to 2 August at the Porte de La Chapelle Arena in Paris. There were 15 pairs (30 players) from 13 nations competing.

China's Zheng Siwei and Huang Yaqiong, whom were the silver medalists in the mixed doubles event in 2020, defeated South Korea's Kim Won-ho and Jeong Na-eun in the final, 21–8, 21–11, to win the gold medal in mixed doubles badminton at the 2024 Summer Olympics. [1] [2] Zheng and Huang did not lose a set during the tournament, becoming the first mixed pair to achieve this feat since Tontowi Ahmad and Liliyana Natsir in 2016. [3] Their win led China to their fifth gold medal in the mixed doubles discipline since badminton debuted as an official sport in the Olympics in 1992. [4]

Defending bronze medalists Yuta Watanabe and Arisa Higashino of Japan defeated South Korea's Seo Seung-jae and Chae Yoo-jung 21–13, 22–20 to win Japan's second consecutive bronze medal in the mixed doubles event at the Olympics. [5]

Chinese pair Wang Yilyu and Huang Dongping were the defending Olympic champions, but Wang retired from the sport in June 2023. [6] Huang partnered with Feng Yanzhe, but lost in the quarterfinals to eventual champions Zheng Siwei and Huang Yaqiong. [4]
