The Closing Ceremony at the Beijing Olympics will take place on Sunday, Feb. 20 at 7 a.m. ET.
NBC will broadcast the events live at 7 a.m. ET, and the network will also re-air the Closing Ceremony in primetime at 8 p.m. ET and then again at 11:30 p.m. ET on Sunday. The ceremony will also stream on NBC’s Peacock, along with other services like fuboTV, Hulu + Live TV, YouTuve TV, or the NBC Sports App.
The events will take place at the Beijing National Stadium, which is also commonly referred to as the Bird’s Nest. Zhang Yimou, an Oscar-nominated filmmaker who also directed the Opening Ceremony, will direct the Closing Ceremony.
While only a handful of fans will attend the closing ceremonies (and none from countries outside of China), there are nearly 3,000 athletes who were participants in the Beijing Olympics.
China will pass the Olympics flag to Italy, which will host the Winter Games in 2026.
