Event – 2010 Winter Games Closing Ceremonies

Time & Date – 5:30 pm, Sunday, February 28th, 2010

Venue – BC Place Stadium, Vancouver, British Columbia

Every four years winter sport is put on display, and it’s not just you or I but the whole world that watches. The celebration of cooperative competition in athletics has a mountain of strengths next to a few faults far between, and though female ski jumpers have yet to earn Olympic recognition, they happen to be the last ladies awaiting inclusion to the Winter Games with 13 out of the 15 disciplines gloriously egalitarian already.

Picturing seven sports divided into 15 disciplines and further divided into 86 events that include an estimated 2,500 athletes from more than 80 nations makes it hard to believe that a 17-day period is all it takes, but it’s true. A little more than two weeks, and Olympians that have trained for years find out if they get to take home a souvenir.

The opening ceremony is scheduled to take place on Friday, February 12th, followed by 15 days of nonstop action. Once 258 Olympic medals find their homes with the world’s top athletes jumping for joy and the rest of the world’s top athletes scratching their heads and gearing up to start again, the closing ceremony will merge the remarkable mélange with individual acknowledgment honoring every competitor’s achievement as a symbol of endurance and a stepping stone to greatness.

Wish you could be there to bid farewell to the globe’s best and witness a whirlwind of entertainment as the Olympic flag is handed from Vancouver to Sochi? Well, you can!

Chamonix, France played host to the very first Winter Olympic Games. Six sports divided into nine disciplines and further divided into 16 events made up these inaugural games, and 16 nations collectively sent 258 athletes to determine 1924’s limits. Including one tie, 49 medals were awarded to ten countries. Norway earned the most and was also ranked highest with 4 gold, 7 silver, and 6 bronze, Finland came in second with 4 gold, 4 silver, and 3 bronze, and Austria landed third with 2 gold and 1 silver. Canada finished eighth after securing one medal, a gold in – surprise, surprise – ice hockey.

Turin, Italy played host to the most recent Winter Olympic Games. Seven sports divided into 15 disciplines and further divided into 84 events made up these last games, and 80 nations collectively sent 2,508 athletes to determine 2006’s limits. 252 medals were awarded to 26 countries.

Vancouver, Canada is honored to host the 21st edition of the Winter Olympic Games and is excited to see what 2010 will register. This will be the third time the Olympics visit Canada. Montréal hosted the Summer Games in 1976 and Calgary hosted the Winter Games in 1988.

Sochi, Russia is next in line with the 22nd Winter Games Opening Ceremony scheduled for February 7th, 2014. This will be the first time the Olympics visit the Russian Federation. When Moscow was a part of the Soviet Union, it hosted the 1980 Summer Games.

It will have been 86 years since Chamonix introduced the world to what would become the leading winter sports festival. Will you get the chance to behold a part of this captivating tradition and breathtaking quest for excellence?
