#closing ceremony

[blindfoureyes]

OH AND ALSO

Just gotta love how this QUEEN got up and decided to give zero fucks to that stupid rule about hijabs. She not only ignored that bs, she did it with style!

In front of every single person who may be watching this, in front of Emmanuel Macron and France, in front of every ignorant and disgusting soul who dares to try and hinder such a beauty.

Her wonderfull smile says more than any word I could put here!

And we're done...

... no, wait, we're not

The Paralympic Games are coming!

The way my husband and I SCREAMED when this guy appeared again at the closing ceremony.

So many people complaining about the closing ceremonies have clearly never watched a closing ceremony before.

Dance party segment with a bunch of famous to the host country bands playing? NORMAL

Montage of the games showing winners and losers? NORMAL

Another historical/artistic segment that is usually hard to understand? NORMAL

Marathon winner getting their medal at the closing ceremony? NORMAL (though it being woman instead of men was a first!)

Crazy light show with flashing lights, fireworks ect. NORMAL

Rip David Bowie you would have loved the little gold queer alien at the Paris Olympics closing ceremony

[debinhas-bicycle]

I love sports, I wish they were real! Unfortunately they were invented for the Olympics and we'll have to wait another 4 years for them to come back into season. Tragic.

Time for another epic show at the Stade de France Paris for the closing ceremony of the Olympics 2024

A Golden Voyager lands in a world that is deserted and mysterious, ready to explore.

Athens 1896 Greece 🇬🇷 to Paris 2024 🇫🇷

It’s always worth remembering Pierre de Coubertin’s vision for the modern Olympic Games and the contribution of Greece.

“The Hymn to Apollo”, like you’ve never seen or heard it before.

The Olympic rings! The Stade de France! 🩵💛🖤💚❤️

Angèle and Phoenix turning Stade de France into Stade de Dance

Speeches by Tony Estanguet, President of Paris 2024 and Thomas Bach, President of the International Olympic Committee.

As the Olympic Anthem plays, the Olympic flag is lowered. It’s a lovely performance by the Maîtrise de Fontainebleau and the Orchestre Divertimento.

From Paris to LA. The Olympic flag is officially handed over!

Mayors Anne Hidalgo and Karen Bass make history as they join IOC President Thomas Bach for the handover.

“The Star-Spangled Banner” rings out around the Stade de France, while Simone Biles holds the Olympic flag.

“Your mission, should you choose to accept it, is to bring the Olympic flag to Los Angeles.”

The Red Hot Chili Peppers are getting the #LA28 party started!

As we bid farewell to the Paris 2024 Olympic flame, Yseult treats us to a spine-tingling rendition of “My way”.

Merci Beaucoup Paris 2024, See you in LA 2028
