Closing of the Olympics in Rio. Rio Olympics Closing Ceremony: live broadcast Olympic Closing Ceremony
The fire of the XXXI Summer Olympic Games in 2016, which were held for the first time in South America, was extinguished at the Maracanã stadium in Rio de Janeiro. The closing ceremony of the Rio Olympics was held under the sign of samba - a symbol of the national identity of Brazilians.
A total of 306 sets of awards were awarded in 28 sports. The first place in the unofficial standings was taken by a large margin by the US team - 121 medals (46 gold). The Russians, like four years ago in London, finished in fourth position - 56 medals (19 gold, 18 silver and 19 bronze).
It is interesting that the Ukrainian Olympic team, following the results of the competition in Rio de Janeiro, set a personal anti-record in the medal standings, having won the smallest number of awards for the entire existence of the country, taking only 31st place in the ranking. Ukrainian athletes managed to win only eleven medals, of which only two were gold. Famous Ukrainian athletes believe that officials from the Ministry of Youth and Sports are to blame for the disastrous results of the 2016 Olympics for the country.

Rio says goodbye to the Olympics the Brazilian way: with an unbridled carnival that seems to have no end. One gets the impression that the organizers saved the best for the finale. Athletes also join the dancers.
There are fireworks again in the sky above the Maracanã, this time the final ones. The XXXI Summer Olympic Games are now officially over.
2016-08-22 04:34:00
We say goodbye to the Olympics, which kept us in suspense these two weeks. The games, which could have turned into a major scandal due to the possible exclusion of the Russian team, have ended. But we will remember the triumph of our gold medalists, wrestlers, the incredible success of the fencing team, which brought the Russian team the largest number of medals. We will remember the unexpected elimination of volleyball players and female volleyball players from the fight for medals, the feat of handball players who became Olympic champions for the first time, as well as the beautiful victories of gymnasts, tennis players and synchronized swimmers.
2016-08-22 04:34:00
The lyrical song is performed by the popular singer Mariene de Castro. She stands under the drops of staged rain (as well as real rain). The Olympic flame suddenly goes out. But there are no people crying. The holiday is not over yet for Brazilians. At the Maracanã, samba begins again, and the Brazilian carnival begins again.
2016-08-22 04:27:00
However, this is not the end of the ceremony. The colorful performance continues, artists again appear at the Maracanã, showing the types of national creativity of Brazil. They are dressed in flashy bright outfits and depict fruits and other gifts of nature, and then rearrange themselves into ornaments. The result of all the reconstruction is an extravagant flowerbed, which reminds us of the main idea of the Rio Olympics - preserving the environment.
2016-08-22 04:25:00
Then the head of the International Olympic Committee, Thomas Bach, takes the floor. He thanks the volunteers, the Olympians, who showed fortitude and friendship.
“Special thanks to the athletes who fled the war but did not stop playing sports,” Bach said.
Let us remind you that the refugee team at the Games in Rio de Janeiro took part in Olympic competitions for the first time.
And now - the inevitable moment of the ceremony. Thomas Bach declares the XXXI Summer Olympic Games in Rio de Janeiro closed and invites everyone to gather again in four years in Tokyo.
2016-08-22 04:20:00
So, the official part is finally opening. The mayor of Rio takes the floor, who we already remember from his fiery and bright speech at the opening ceremony. Eduardo Paez's speech at the closing of the Olympics was no less emotional. He says he is happy - his city has become a “city of miracles.” Paez says he is proud of his country.
“We were sick together, we achieved victory together. The sons and daughters of Brazil are courageous people,” he said.
2016-08-22 04:15:00
A man appears in the center of the Olympic stage in the image of the famous computer game Mario. He takes off his headdress - and everyone sees that this is Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe, who drilled a well from Tokyo to Rio and ended up at the Maracana!
2016-08-22 04:02:00
The head of the IOC, Thomas Bach, the mayor of Rio, Eduardo Paes, and the governor of Tokyo, Yuriko Koike, take the stage. Paes traditionally waves the flag three times and passes it into the hands of the mayor of the new capital of the Olympic Games. A magnificent, very technologically advanced and bright show, full of incredible installations, begins - a presentation of Japan. “See you in Tokyo,” reads the sign in the middle of the arena after the show.
2016-08-22 03:48:00
An exciting moment is the presentation of the elected members of the IOC Athletes' Commission. When the name of Elena Isinbayeva was announced, the stadium erupted with applause.
Let us remind you that the session of the International Olympic Committee (IOC) supported the entry of two-time Olympic champion in pole vaulting Elena Isinbayeva into the organization.
It should be noted that when Rio Mayor Eduardo Paez was introduced, the stands whistled.
The next part of the ceremony is dedicated to honoring volunteers. Without their dedication, the Games would not have been possible.
2016-08-22 03:40:00
Note that the Ethiopian marathon runner Feyisa Lilesa, who won a silver medal at the Rio Olympics, spoke out against the Ethiopian government.
On August 5, mass protests began in Ethiopia demanding political and social reforms and an end to human rights violations. According to Lilesa, over the past nine months, a thousand people have died as a result of government actions. Lilesa plans to protest at the closing ceremony, when the marathon runners will be awarded.
The runner is confident that he will be killed if he returns to Ethiopia. Lilesa left behind a wife and two children.
2016-08-22 03:31:00
And now - a new twist. The dance group depicts another art form beloved by Brazilians - making clay figures. Meanwhile, the artists are already showing folk Indian dances. A very colorful part of the show.
And now at the stadium in Rio they are presenting the moments for which this Olympics will be remembered. Victories, beautiful shots, accurate shots, tragedy and triumph. Our champion synchronized swimmers also showed up.
The ceremony traditional for the Games begins - awarding the winners of the marathon race. Eliud Kipchoge, Feyisa Lilesa and Galen Rapp entered the field. And again, according to tradition, Thomas Bach presents them with medals. Standing next to him is the head of the IAAF, Sebastian Coe.
Marathon is the only sport that was present at the first Olympic Games in 1896 and has survived to this day.
2016-08-22 03:19:00
The presenters welcome the participants of the Olympic Games. Again fireworks explode over the arena, the stadium rejoices and applauds. A cultural program begins, it is dedicated to the history of folk art in Brazil. Dancers create folk ornaments to Indian motifs.
They are replaced by a dancing group of women portraying lacemakers. Lace weaving is one of the most popular types of folk art. To the accompaniment of national tunes, images of lace are projected onto the field.
2016-08-22 03:05:00
The famous Norwegian DJ Kigo will perform at the ceremony.
“I have been lucky enough to perform in many wonderful places, but I can say that this will be the biggest performance of my career. I am pleased to announce that I will be a participant in the closing ceremony of the Rio Games,” the musician said before the event.
Meanwhile, the parade of athletes ends. They are seated in special seats next to the stage. It seems that all the participants in the ceremony don’t care about the downpour. The artists were very wet, and the musicians were not wearing raincoats, which are currently covering most of the participants in the stadium. Team Canada wore winter mittens to the ceremony.
The Japanese are the most organized and largest group without any dancing. They are the hosts of the next Olympic Games. The position obliges.
2016-08-22 02:57:00
Police are on duty near the Maracanã stadium. True, this time there are fewer law enforcement officers than during the opening ceremony. At the stadium box office, tickets for the ceremony cost about 100 reais (2 thousand rubles), and there were no visible resellers. This price was set approximately an hour before opening. In pre-sale, ticket prices started from 2 thousand reais (40 thousand rubles).
2016-08-22 02:45:00
The organizers said that they would try to involve the legendary Brazilian football player Pele in the ceremony, who was unable to participate in the opening of the Olympics for health reasons.
Meanwhile, the ceremony resembles a grand festive display. Dance music is playing. An incredible mix of flags and teams. On the improvised stage “Maracana”, a group of dancers in bright outfits perform a cheerful dance in jazz traditions.
2016-08-22 02:41:00
It started to rain over the Maracana. Parade participants wear raincoats, but some are not at all afraid of the rain. Let us remind you that it is winter in Brazil. People going to the ceremony also took shelter from the downpour.
2016-08-22 02:33:00
The arena turns into a kaleidoscope of colors, and the parade of athletes begins. It is not as crowded as at the opening of the Games - only the flag bearers of the national teams participate in it. Groups of athletes in free clothes and volunteers enter the field. Representatives from different countries are mixed together - they managed to make friends at the Games. There are no strict rules in this case. The Russian flag will be carried by brilliant synchronized swimmers Natalya Ishchenko and Svetlana Romashina, five-time Olympic champions.
Participants in the Games come out regardless of country or sport. The playing field is gradually filled with smart and cheerful athletes - they are relaxed, the hardest part is behind them.
2016-08-22 02:24:00
The ceremony was worked on by Rosa Magalhaes, a professor of scenography who is considered one of the best designers of the famous carnival, which takes place annually in Rio, reports the Chicago Tribune. Brazilian musicians will perform at the ceremony, there will also be a parade of countries participating in the Games and the transfer of the Tokyo 2020 Olympic flag.
2016-08-22 02:12:00
The stands of the Maracana stadium, which seats 70 thousand spectators, are almost full. Colorful fireworks flash over the stadium. Dancers enter the arena, they form the outline of the symbol of Brazil - a statue of Christ with outstretched arms. Dancers are grouped into Olympic rings.
The host of the ceremony introduces Thomas Bach.
A group of singers appears on stage, they perform a popular Brazilian song, and colorful paintings change one after another in the arena. The Brazilian national anthem is played, performed by a choir to the sound of drums.

The colorful event, like the opening ceremony of the Games, takes place at the legendary Maracana stadium. The Russian team finishes its performance at the Olympics in fourth place, having won 19 gold, 18 silver and 19 bronze medals.
Five-time Olympic champions in synchronized swimming Natalya Ishchenko and Svetlana Romashina were chosen as the standard bearers of the Russian team. For the first time in the history of the Russian national team, two athletes will carry the flag.

Closing ceremony of the Rio 2016 Olympics: event program
We emphasize that due to a serious time difference, Russians will be able to see the closing ceremony of the Olympic Games in Rio 2016 on Monday, August 22, 2016.
The event will take place at the Maracanã stadium, which seats about eighty thousand people. During the event, all participants in the Olympic Games will march in a solemn procession. According to some reports, their number will be about 11 thousand people. In total, athletes from more than two hundred countries took part in the 2016 Games, and many of them have already gone home, having completed their performance at the Olympics.
Nothing is known for certain about what exactly will be shown at the closing ceremony of the Olympic Games in Rio de Janeiro 2016 on August 21, 2016. The organizers promise the audience a surprise and many bright and memorable moments. However, remembering the opening of the 2016 Olympics, many have already prepared themselves for disappointment, and the media are adding fuel to the fire, constantly spreading rumors about the threat of disruption of the ceremony.
It turns out that Brazil may impose a ban on the ceremony being paid for from the budget due to the “opacity” with which funds were spent during the opening of the Olympics. According to some reports, it is planned to spend from 24 to 80 million dollars to close the Games.
However, there are high chances that everything will go smoothly, and viewers will not be left without the promised show with the participation of world-famous stars.
According to the organizers, at the closing ceremony of the Olympic Games in Rio de Janeiro 2016, the top three leaders in the overall standings will be awarded. They are currently the USA, Great Britain and China. Sports officials will make farewell remarks and the Olympic flame will be extinguished.
At the end of the closing ceremony of the Rio 2016 Games, spectators will be treated to a fire show, after which the XXXI Summer Olympic Games will be officially closed.
