The Winter Olympics officially kicked off tonight, with the Opening Ceremony celebrating the start of two weeks of the very best of winter sport.
The main Opening Ceremony took place in Milan’s San Siro Stadium, one of the historic site’s final events before it is slated to be torn down. But due to the spread-out nature of these Games – taking place across northern Italy – there were also athlete parades in the mountain clusters, including Cortina, where the curling, bobsleigh, skeleton and luge all take place.
