There is great anticipation for the closing ceremony of the Paris Olympics after the controversy raised by the opening ceremony. According to rumors reported by the French press, the event scheduled for Sunday, August 11 (from 9:00 p.m. to 11:15 p.m.) artistic director Thomas Jolly is preparing a show with two iconic French pop bands, Phoenix and AIR. The event is titled “Records” and unlike the opening ceremony, in the city and along the Seine, it will take place at the Stade de France. According to what has been learned, it will represent a “futuristic world in which the Games have disappeared” and will celebrate “this shared humanity”, says Jolly.

“It will be completely different from the opening ceremony because I have a stadium, so there are entrances, there are lights, there is a scenography, there is a space towards which all eyes are drawn. It completely changes the way I write the show”, adds the Frenchman who confirms however that the spirit seen at the opening event will be the same as the final party. Of course, after the rain on the heads of state, the queer Last Supper that had also angered the Vatican, and the many troubles that have marred these Games from the Imane Khelif case to swimming in the tumultuous and dirty waters of the Seine, the organizers of Paris 2024 are waiting at the pass.
