Olympics Closing Ceremony Set to be “The Greatest After-Party in the World”

Olympics Opening Ceremony

The 2012 Olympics closing ceremony in London is looking like it will be one for the record books.

The closing ceremony’s musical director, David Arnold, recently opened up to The Telegraph and spilled some juicy details. 

“To me, this should be the greatest after-party in the world,” David said. “If the Opening Ceremony was the wedding, then we’re the wedding reception.”

The closing ceremony will happen at Olympic Stadium and will have elaborate sets constructed especially for the ceremony. The sets will be created by Es Devlin, who has designed sets for the like of Lady Gaga and Rihanna.

E! News has reported that the ceremony will feature more than 4,100 performers, whose volunteers total around 3,500 adults and 380 children. Wow! Now THAT’S a lot of people!

Reports are still saying performers will include One DirectionSpice Girls,The Who, George Michael and Take That, as the theme is “A Symphony of British Music”.

Tune in to the closing ceremony tomorrow, Sunday August 12 at 3 p.m. CT on NBC.
