所有奥运会的开幕及闭幕式都极其重要，因为它们是奥运会的有机组成部分，而且与主办城市留给世界其它城市的印象息息相关。数百万由该比赛吸引来的观众认为？它们是唤起一个城市或国家觉悟的绝好时机。此外，它们也能够为大量事故带来可乘之机，当规划、管理或通讯出现故障时更是如此：
The Opening and Closing Ceremonies of any Olympic Games are of great importance. They are the parts of the Games that contribute most to the impression that a host city gives to the rest of the world.

They also offer plenty of opportunity for disaster, especially when planning, management or communications break down.
