Closing Ceremony draws the curtains down on memorable Beijing 2022 Winter Olympics
Athletes applauded for their achievements as the Olympic flag is handed over to Milano Cortina 2026. Read more about the ceremony and the athletes who kept us thrilled and entertained over the last two weeks, below.

Beijing, SAEDNEWS: The Olympic Winter Games has come to an end following a spectacular closing ceremony at the Bird’s Nest stadium in Beijing. Norway managed to reach championship in these games by 16 Gold medals.

Mirroring displays the last time the Games were famously held in the city in 2008, the Olympic flame was ceremonially extinguished and fireworks sparkled overhead to form the shape of the Olympic Rings.

Over the past 16 days the world has watched the greatest winter athletes compete against each other for the highest honours, but as they took their place among the parade of nations a giant augmented reality 'Chinese knot' filled the stadium to symbolise the Olympic spirit of togetherness.

Echoing this sentiment, emotional video montages were played on the giant screens showing the athletes’ incredible resilience, bravery and skill over the past two weeks while acting as an important demonstration that however different we are, if we believe in each other, we will be Stronger Together.
