    The Brisbane handover ceremony will take place at the Coliseum as well as the rest of the Closing Ceremony. Will be interesting to see what Queenslanders have instore for us on July 30, 2028 when the Olympic Flag is handed to Australia for the first time in 28 years.

    That segment in last year's Paris Opening Cermony drew criticism from viewers but it has grown on me

    It'll be a sunset Opening Ceremony with sunset at 8:05PM PT on July 14 during the Opening Ceremony. Lighting of the Cauldron will take place at dark with the main artistic segment/parade of nations taking place when it is daylight. Parts of last year's Opening Ceremony was in daylight as well

    Finally a website. About time BNEOCOG have set up an Olympic masterplan

    Salt Lake 2002 was special. Held less than 18 months after 9/11 and bought the world together for 16 days. Oh and we had that Aussie winning gold in the short track

    Coverage for the Paralympics were minimal on Channel 7 with just a highlights package. NEC will be the first broadcaster to take the Winter Paralympics seriously

    https://aramajapan.com/news/tokyo-2020-opening-ceremony-original-plan-leaks-in-full/114631/ What could've been if not for COVID. They could recycle this for the OC should it be relocated

    Give Tokyo a 2nd chance. We were robbed of an Opening Ceremony that featured video game references, Akira and Super Mario in 202(1) so relocating the Games to Tokyo from LA is still feasible. 3 years to go and Japan has all the infrastructure to host at such short notice

    https://tvblackbox.com.au/page/2025/06/03/nine-locks-in-exclusive-rights-to-2026-milano-cortina-paralympics/ Nine Entertainment, Australia's Olympic Network as secured the rights to the 2026 Winter Paralympics. It's the 2nd time Nine has aired the Paralympics and their first Winter Paralympics they'll air across their platforms

    Here is part 2 of the video

    A normal Stadium OC is back for the first time in 8 long years
  13. BigVic
    Beijing 2022 vibes with the snowflake theme for NBC's Olympic coverage which is a departure from their mountain theme for Winter Games broadcasted on the network
  14. BigVic
    Nine Entertainment here in Australia is going to have a massive Q1 2026 with the Australian Open into the Winter Olympics and the Australian F1 Grand Prix (if 9 gets the rights to these) then the start of the 2026 NRL Season happening between January-March next year. Their top-rating reality show MAFS will see them dominate the start of the 2026 Ratings Season)
  15. BigVic
    Also in April and just before a Winter Olympic Games is held in Italy.
  16. BigVic
    The two stadium concept was proposed in the bid back in 2017. LA 1984 and Seoul 1988 were classic ceremonies. The Closing will be held at the Coliseum with all the formal elements (athletes entrance, closing remarks, Brisbane handover, extinguishing of the flame and the party) as with 1984. Unlike the Olympics, the Paralympic OC will only be held at SoFi and the Closing at the Coliseum.
  17. BigVic
    Very interesting. After that Opening Ceremony by the Seine River in Paris last year, Milano-Cortina will return to a normal stadium ceremony feel at San Siro which would be the first normal Olympic Games Opening Ceremony since PyeongChang 2018 and with 80,000 full spectators in attendnace.
  18. BigVic
    There were no smartphones to take selfies then so they had to use their old-school flip phone or a digital camera to capture the moment.
  19. BigVic
    i go for Inter and what a game it was. San Siro will only host the Opening Ceremony while the Closing Ceremony/Para OC will be held at Verona with Cortina hosting the Para-CC at the 1956 Main Stadium to make it a full circle after 6 weeks of competition

    https://www.abc.net.au/news/2025-04-17/basil-zempilas-push-for-wa-to-host-2030-commonwealth-games/105186956 WA Liberal Leader and former Perth Lord Mayor and former TV personality Basil Zempilas calls for Perth to host the 2030 Commonwealth Games. Australia will be able to host it after the 2032 Brisbane Olympic Games most likely in 2038 in Perth which would be the frontrunner should there be an Australian bid.

    February-March 2024 will be a huge sports period. Can't wait for these Winter Olympics. The CWG was due to start on 17 March 2 days after the PWG CC which would've been a 6 week sporting festival
  22. BigVic
    The first anniversary in Sydney saw the re-lighting of the re-located Cauldron with events proceeding despite the 9/11 attacks earlier that week. It was the re-ignite the spriit of the Games and to lift the spirits up after those tragic events.
  23. BigVic
    Channel 7 aired a replay of the Opening Ceremony that night after the AFL semi final. The one-year anniversary celebrations were overshadowed by 9/11 and the Ansett collapse
  24. BigVic
    Rowing on the Fitzroy >>>>> Swimming on the Seine. Get ready for the Gator memes in the US
  25. BigVic
    Unlike Paris 2024 and LA 2028 with temporary drop-in pools for swimming, Brisbane will have a permanent pool
