Kiwis bagged 10 golds and 20 medals - easily breaking the previous best from 1984. Here's how the numbers break down and where Aotearoa ranked.
New Zealand athletes have bagged more gold medals at Paris 2024 than at any other Olympic Games in history.
The 10 golds claimed across the two weeks of competition have smashed the previous record of eight won at the 1984 Los Angeles Games.
The Kiwis also bagged seven silver and three bronze medals to take the total number to 20 and finish 11th on the medal table, between Germany and Canada.
That is the same number of medals won at Tokyo 2020, which was previously New Zealand's most successful Olympics in terms of numbers. Athletes took seven golds, six silvers and seven bronzes at that competition.
