So only one actual original idea from 1976 & 24 people copying someone else? Sounds like 21st Century music right enough.

Doesn’t look like we’ll manage to pull off the upset, but so proud of the girls for their performance regardless

Looking forward to this

 

 

Giant Dance Party

 

Paris 2024 Ceremonies Artistic Director Thomas Jolly has promised a giant dance party at the Closing Ceremony.

 

Jolly says 24 DJs will perform thumping techno and dance music at the Stade de France on Sunday as the curtain falls on the 2024 Paralympics.

 

“We want to turn the Stade de France into the biggest dance floor to celebrate the end of the Paralympics,” Jolly told The Associated Press in an interview.

 

Much like during the Paralympic opening ceremony, which featured artists with disabilities and dancers using crutches or wheelchairs, the dance floor will be open for all.

 

“There will be choreographic sequences that will showcase the body,” Jolly said.

63 medals for now... Can we get to 70 tomorrow? What are our chances, really, apart from 3-4 medals in swimming?

[AustralianFan 29]

According to the Stade de France website, the order of proceedings for Sunday night’s “dance party” Closing Ceremony is:

    > Opening scene
    > Speeches and anthems 
    > Thanks to the volunteers 
    > Medal presentation ceremony 
    > Artistic show 
    > Los Angeles 2028 handover 
    > Grand Final

The Road Races are unfair with combined more impaired categories getting no head start etc like the Triathlon’s has.
