About The Opening Ceremony

When the Opening Ceremony begins, the whole world leans in. Delegations from every competing nation file into the stadium behind their flag bearer, a sea of colors, chants, and waving hands under a sky about to erupt in fireworks. The moment the cauldron is lit, that long walk, that single flame passed from hand to hand, something shifts, and the games are truly, gloriously open.
