Summer Games/ Closing Ceremony Tickets

The Closing Ceremony take place after all of the events have concluded. Being traditionally framed with various festive elements, including flag bearers, Olympic torch, dance and theatre performances etc, the Closing Ceremony is a fantastic sight, which is worth seeing. Flag bearers from each participating delegation enter the stadium in single file, followed by the athletes without any distinction or grouping of nationality. Three national flags are each hoisted onto flagpoles one at a time while their respective national anthems are played: The flag of Greece on the right-hand pole (again honoring the birthplace of the Olympic Games), the flag of the host country on the middle pole, and finally the flag of the host country of the next Summer or Winter Olympic Games, on the left-hand pole.

The next host nation introduces itself with artistic displays of dance and theatre representative of that country. This tradition began with the 1976 Games.
