For ICC World Cup 2023 final in-between India & Australia, battle for the crown, a gala closing ceremony has been planned.
The ICC World Cup Closing Ceremony has been divided into four parts with performances planned during pre-match, the mid-innings break, the second innings’ drinks break, and post-match.
Pre-Match – Air Show
The opening ceremony will commence at 12:30pm, with an acrobatic air show by the Indian Air Force. Led by flight commander Sidesh Kartik, a team involving nine hawks, called the Suryakiran Acrobatic Team, will be performing a 10-minute-long display, accompanied by music.
Mid-Innings – Parade of Champions & Musical Performance
The half-time programme will commence at 5:30pm, with a 15-minute-long ‘Champions Parade’ involving nearly all of the previous World Cup-winning skippers. Sir Clive Lloyd, Kapil Dev, Allen Border, Arjuna Ranatunga, Steve Waugh, Ricky Ponting, Mahendra Singh Dhoni, Michael Clarke and Eoin Morgan will all be featuring in the parade.
There will also be 20-second reel highlights of the captains, alongside visuals about the evolution of the trophy over the years – from Prudential Trophy, to Reliance Cup, Benson & Hedges Trophy, Wills Cup, and finally, the World Cup. BCCI will be facilitating every captain in the parade with special blazers.
The captains’ parade will be followed by a live performance from music director Pritam, alongside his team of 500+ dancers.
