Major adjustments to the sequence of Olympic Games entrance ceremonies list of Olympic Games entrance ceremonies
According to Xinhua news agency, the Executive Committee of the International Olympic Committee decided in Lausanne, Switzerland, on the 3rd to adjust the entry order of delegations to the summer and Winter Olympic Games from the Tokyo Olympic Games: national or regional delegations that have won the right to host the future Olympic Games will appear before the current host, so as to highlight the special status of the host of the future Olympic Games. Therefore, at the opening ceremony of next year's Tokyo Olympic Games, the last three delegations will be the United States (the host of the 2028 Los Angeles Olympic Games), France (the host of the 2024 Paris Olympic Games) and Japan.
In addition, at the Tokyo Olympic Games, the order of appearance of the refugee delegation will be greatly advanced. They will be the second to enter the stadium after Greece, which represents the birthplace of the Olympic movement. At the previous opening ceremony of the Rio Olympic Games, the first refugee delegation in the history of the Olympic Games was the penultimate appearance before the host Brazil.
