Just move the ceremony to stadium, as it should be, then it will be way more safe...

Based on what, besides 'that is what we are used to'?

 

For the first time in forever, the opening ceremony with the original plans sounds like something I'm actually looking forward to, besides of course the Parade of Nations I always want to watch. Normally the rest of the show - at least for me - is a whole bunch of dances and so on that 'represent the unity and the history of *insert any nation*', but without actually telling a story  

 

This time it has the potential to be way more interesting..

I actually read in the Italian media that the Parade of Nations will be divided into two phases, the first on the boats and the second in the square, in a sort of improvised stadium, where the classic parade will take place.

yes the delegations will parade on the boats which will take them to the Eiffel Tower, then they will parade on foot at the foot of the Eiffel Tower to the Trocadero
