opening ceremony

The first lady will travel to Japan for the opening ceremony of the pandemic-delayed Tokyo Olympics on July 23.
The first team of refugee athletes in the games' history marched behind the Olympic flag.
Brazil wasted no time with the whole world watching.
"Great idea NBC. Don’t air what should be a global cultural event live. Why would everyone want to watch and enjoy together?"
Apparently, the actress was "astonished" but managed to keep her cool.
