- The Games farewell is expected to be a more traditional affair than the joyful and impertinent opening ceremony, which took place on the Seine
Hollywood A-listers have been around the Olympics for decades, and there have been no shortage of them over the past two weeks in Paris, but how many get involved in opening or closing ceremonies.

When and where is the closing ceremony?
The event is expected to start at 9pm on Sunday in Paris, which is 3am on Monday morning, Hong Kong time. It will be held at the Stade de France, venue of the athletics and rugby sevens during the Games.
