Regarding the concept of the opening ceremony of the Tokyo Paralympics, which is about to open three days later, the Games Organizing Committee said "WE HAVE WINGS" with the idea that everyone has "wings" to face the headwinds of life through the appearance of para-athletes. Announced that it was decided.

The opening ceremony of the Tokyo Paralympics will be held at the National Stadium from 8 pm on the 24th of this month.



The concept of the opening ceremony announced by the Games Organizing Committee is "WE HAVE WINGS", and we want everyone to be aware that they have such wings through the appearance of para-athletes who courageously spread their wings even in headwinds. It is filled with thoughts.



On the other hand, the concept of the closing ceremony scheduled for the 5th of next month is "Harmonious Cacophony", and we hope to harmonize the dissonance by recognizing the differences and shining the individuality.



The Organizing Committee is recruiting performers from the general public for the opening and closing ceremonies, and although the number has decreased from the beginning due to the influence of the new corona, a total of 161 people are scheduled to participate. It means to show off performances that make the most of their special skills.



The opening ceremony rehearsal will take place on the 22nd at the National Stadium.
