The organizers keep in secret all the details of what the ceremony will feature. What is certain is that this year’s ceremony will be one of the coldest in history – the temperature is expected to drop to minus 10C. All in all, 2,000 performers will be involved in the show. After the show, the parade of the participating countries will begin.
These Games will be the first where the flag-bearers of their teams will be exclusively athletes. For Belarus, the freestyle skier Alla Tsuper will carry the national flag.
At 13.55, TV Channel Belarus 1 will broadcast the event live. Vladimir Novitsky and Alexander Dmitriev will work as commentators.
