Watch the closing ceremony of the Beijing 2022 Paralympic Winter Games
CBC
After the initial controversy stemming from Russia's invasion of Ukraine was rectified, athletes were able to shine at the Beijing Paralympics.
Both the Russian and Belarusian cohorts were barred from the Games days prior to the opening ceremony and with no legal action taken by either side, it allowed the Paralympics to continue.
The Games left many moments that will stand in history, a variety of firsts, heartfelt sportsmanship and a Ukrainian team that stood tall amid conflict to perform the best it ever has.
The closing ceremony of the 2022 Games will take place at the National Stadium in Beijing, also known as the Bird's Nest, on Sunday at 9 p.m. local time (8 a.m. ET) on the CBC-TV network, CBCSports.ca, the CBC Sports app and CBC Gem. Check your local listings for broadcast times in your area.
The broadcast will also be presented in described video and American Sign Language.
