The Paris 2024 Olympics concluded in grand fashion on Sunday with a mesmerising closing ceremony at the Stade de France. A celebration of sportsmanship and global unity, the event featured a dazzling array of performances by athletes, musicians, and artists.
Paris 2024 Organising Committee president Tony Estanguet and IOC president Thomas Bach delivered inspiring speeches, celebrating the athletes and the spirit of the Games. The Olympic flag was then handed over to Los Angeles, marking the transition to the 2028 Olympics.
The transition to LA2028 was marked by a series of captivating performances and appearances. Singer H.E.R. performed the American national anthem, actor Tom Cruise made a dramatic entrance, jumping from the stadium roof as part of a very Hollywood handoff to Los Angeles and the Olympic flag was symbolically transported from Paris to Los Angeles.
The Paris 2024 Olympics left a lasting legacy, with the USA topping the medal tally with 126 medals, followed by China and Japan. The Games marked a new era for the Olympics, characterised by inclusivity, sustainability, and gender parity. The world now eagerly awaits the 2028 Los Angeles Olympics, where the Olympic spirit will continue to shine.
