Coste was the oldest bearer of the 2024 Summer Olympics torch during the opening ceremony of the games in Paris. He lit the torches of the final pair of torch bearers, fellow French gold medallists Marie-José Pérec and Teddy Riner, who then lit the Olympic Cauldron. He was the oldest living French Olympic medal winner and had also been born in the year Paris last hosted the Summer Olympic Games.
