There were also huge wins across the games for several super finalists.
If you missed the opening ceremony, you won’t want to miss the closing one on September 9th. The Festival of Flame closing show celebrates London and Paralympic beliefs. The ceremony will include a concert, a parade with athletes from all over world! After that, the Paralympic Flame will be put out.
Congratulations to all the athletes!
