Paris Olympics 2024 Closing Ceremony: Schedule, how and where to watch, Team USA flag bearers and more
After 16 days of jam-packed action and entertainment, the Paris Olympics 2024 is about to come to a close. The quadrennial event will take one last leap on Sunday with the closing ceremony.
The closing ceremony will take place at the Stade de France, the scene of the track and field Paris Olympics events. This event will be a bit different to what the world saw during the opening ceremony that featured the athletes being paraded on boats along the River Seine.
The closing ceremony will feature various programs, extending from musical performances to acrobatic stunts. It will be hosted by the host of "The Tonight Show," Jimmy Fallon and Mike Tirico (sports broadcaster).
It will also feature a flag-passing ceremony where the Olympic flag will be passed on from the mayor of Paris to the IOC President, and then to the mayor of Los Angeles, the host city for the next Olympic Games in 2028.
The organizers of the closing ceremony recently gave a note of what's to come on Sunday.
"The participation of world-renowned singers will complete the picture... Part of the show will take place in the air, while the giant sets, costumes and spectacular lighting effects will take spectators on a journey through time, both past and future.”
