- The London 2012 Paralympic Games Closing Ceremony saw Coldplay, one of Britain's best selling music acts, joined by global superstars Rihanna and Jay-Z in a spectacular celebration of achievements of the Paralympic athletes and an amazing summer of sport.
Celebrating the seasonal cycle of ancient and modern festivals that take place throughout the year, world-class musical performances took the audience on a journey through Autumn, Winter, Spring and Summer.
The ceremony also honoured servicemen and women, and particularly the work of charity Help for Heroes, with Captain Luke Sinnott, a double amputee, climbing to the top of the flag pole to hoist the Union Flag. A motorcade of weird and wonderful vehicles then stormed into the Olympic Stadium, as ex-serviceman Rory Mackenzie delivered a rousing speech.
The evening also saw the Paralympic Flag was handed over to Mayor of Rio de Janeiro Eduardo Paes, cueing a colourful musical performance by Rio 2016.
At the end of the night, as the Paralympic Flame began to fade, ParalympicsGB gold medallists Ellie Simmonds and Jonnie Peacock transferred the Flame to a Paralympic Torch. They then proceeded to light hundreds of torches held by members of the cast throughout the field of play before it was extinguished.
The ceremony ended with a spectacular fireworks display over the Olympic Stadium and Olympic Park, followed by fireworks along the River Thames.
Led by Closing Ceremonies Artistic Director Kim Gavin, Music Director David Arnold and Designer Misty Buckley, the Closing Ceremony was overseen by the same team of Executive Producers who have been in charge of all four Olympic and Paralympic Ceremonies, including Oscar-winning film director Stephen Daldry.

Let's be honest, we came here for Coldplay and not Rihanna or Jay-Z
Not gonna lie lol.
Kyle Fang i came for Rihanna 😍
Yes. Hahaha
happy 11 years london 2012
I was originally here for coldplay, but literally stunned by how great the athletes are in the video footages along with coldplay's song! It is not hard to imagine how much effort they have paid, how many challenges they have to conquer to earned their place!
No pressure on Will Champion at all with that last drum solo...
best closing ceremonies of any Olympics, any time, ever.
Best Strawberry Swing performance!
SHUT UP WHILE COLDPLAY IS PLAYING!!!
they did have some inportant things to atend
I actually love the song Strawberry Swing, it's such an incredible song and to hear it live would be amazing. Had I been there, I think I might have fainted from the sheer awesomeness. The entire ceremony was really good. Much better than the Olympic closing ceremony.
THE BEST BAND IN THE WORLD!!!
By far the best paralympic ceremony ever, 10 years later this it's still hard to do better
I was a games maker volunteer at the Grange St. Pauls Paralympic Family Hotel in central London and was lucky enough to be given tickets to attend this ceremony and feel the amazing atmosphere inside the stadium. It was one of the very best nights of my life and I feel incredibly privileged to have been a part of the London 2012 Paralympic Games!
This is absolutely amazing. I have to see Coldplay live someday!
+Jennie Kerfuffle :-) absolutely agree..... :-)
+Jennie Kerfuffle and the dream come true for me 13 april 2016, I hope soon for you
Definitely me to
At first I was upset they didn't do my favorite of theirs Fix You, then I realized it probably wouldn't go over well in this situation.....
Why wouldn't it?? Fix you is a song about unconditional love and about no matter what happens, I'm here for you, I love you and I'll support no matter what you're going through
Even though that song is about emotional fixing, I can see why it might be tone-deaf.
That was one heck of an evening the stadium rocked, an excelent conclusion to an excelent Paralympics.
- the hosts' voices = perfect concert
I was priveledged to be at the Olmpic Park watching the weekends wheel rugby finals and then the closing ceremony, words fail to convey the true joy I felt being there, being a part of magical summer of sport. To all who made it possible Thank you.
Phil Craven’s pirate anecdote is honestly one of the only engaging bits from the Olympic speeches I’ve ever heard. Can he do them all instead of Thomas Bach?
02:04:55 We Run This Town
02:08:46 Paradise
02:10:40 Interlude
02:11:18 The Scientist
02:16:28 Every Teardrop Is A Waterfall
THIS IS what I was looking for, thanks!
THIS LOOKED SOOOOOOOOOOO AMAZING SO PROUD TO BE BRITISH
as one of those many volunteers... seb coe's speech is still a highlight I have never forgotten some 12 years on
Coldplay is epic, the greatest band ever.
Agreed.
1:19:13 still come here in 2019! If your feeling down and out come back to this moment! Us brits are amazing
I never forget this moments. One of the best moments of the history of the music. Thanks a lot Cold Play
This was better than the official closing ceremony.
This event, including the opening ceremony and the events I was able to watch have been the most amazing thing I have ever seen. I was so moved by the sheer number of people who planned and participated and the courage of the many athletes who competed.
This was truly inspirational for me as I wasn't aware before of just how truly talented so many para athletes are.
The production was super. The effort that went into organizing and achieving this event was spectacular.
I will definitely lo
I can say "I was there"! Great paralympics!!! Thanks to all volounteers!
who else had tears in their eyes when coldplay started with scientist and the clips were shown!? world is still a beautiful place!
This was a superb perfomence of Rihanna love it
Coldplay you are so perfect...
Coldplay were amazing, but hat's of too all the paralympic athletes.
You can actually hear the crowd during the Viva Chant!
the worlds best paralympics closing cerenomy ever!!!!! Thank u Coldplay!!!!
lets admit it we r all here for coldplay and rihanna
Not gonna lie lol
No.
I'm scottish, and I'm proud to be british 🏴🇬🇧
After this amazing historical event ended , this will never go on again for another 60 + YEARS this going to be remembered forever, god save the Queen
god save the king now
Coldplay is my most favorite band. I'm excited seeing them perform at the closing ceremony of the London paralympic games.
oh Lord, i just love this strawberry swing,the the voice ever.
These announcers killed the songs. :/
+TheRoqco Then look up the Songs on RUclips and make a Playlist.... that's what I did.
They interrupted Brazilian anthem!
The best ceremony of paralympics games!
still watching it! again and again! :) Love Coldplay!
I was there. Brilliant concert.
No he visto banda igual en años, son increíbles, su musica es grandiosa! me encanta!
Watching again, it makes the hairs on the back of my neck stand up, what a wonderful closing ceremony
I can't describe how much I absolutely love Coldplay. Their instrumentals, lyrics and just energy is amazing
I wish the Olympic Spirit was the truth of humanity, but we have a long way to go, much to clear up, to put right to grow and change if we want to survive. If life was like it was that day, humanity could even overcome war, pestillence and destruction and terrible injustice. I pray we will discover that Spirit within us forever.
Loved this video! All the best!!
I really want to cry of emotion every time I see Coldplay's performance. UNFORGETTABLE.
The "my love" part sung by Chris Martin in "Yellow" is INTOXICATING~ love love...
Coldplayyyy! ♥♥
why have people disliked this
and also commentators talking in the middle of sons. that ruined some of the starts, especially Yellow!!
Amazing. Very inspirational. Great performances. All athletes are Warriors especially the Paralympic athletes.
my mate macy is in town and thank god some of my mates landed back home now i can see them and kinda chill...last time i was told i was deaf in bradford.. thanks macy ..
I wish the commentators would shut up.
56:45 if someone is here for viktoria modesta :)
Thank you kind sir !
I came here exactly for that :)
Who?
London provided the GREATEST GAMES IN HISTORY.
This was more amazing than Olympics Closing Ceremony. Thanx Coldplay for being so talented! Amazing footage!
1:13:50 Go on my son ........ fANTASTICreally meant it that little lad...his Mum & Dad must be so proud of him...
Ah Bluekillion, thanks....One of the most inspirational things this cynical old heart has ever seen
Chris Martin awesome! He has the charisma of a squid
+Ronald Griffiths..... and you have a rather cynical view of life....jealousy perhaps?
ohhh so cute!! Rihanna and Chris Martin looked so pretty together
He was the drummer with the amazing way of drumming!!!!!!! So proud of him!!!!!!!!!!
Absolutely super-fantastic. Technical wizardry, aerial acrobatics, infectiously delightful dancing, crazy-fantastic artistry in set & prop & vehicle design, music integral to the themes and performers all wholly invested in celebrating the athletes, volunteers, and supporters of the Games. And the bits of commentary from the livestream show help us non-Brits identify the special guests and performers.
#1yearon since @rihanna @coldplay and Jay Z put on a show that no one could forget >> bit.ly/17KIkfS #ParalympicMemories
La mejor clausura que he visto la vdd mis respetos Coldplay estuvo increíble uno de los mejores grupos que puede tener Inglaterra lo maximo
Lucky enough to have got tickets and wow wow it was absolutely amazing - the lights in the stadium were spectacular, the sound system was sensational, the atmosphere electric and then you add Coldplay to the mix and it just became the best gig ever with the added bonus of being the last night of London 2012 - what a way to finish the Summer!
i was only 9 so i don’t rlly remember much from this night but there’s something about hearing mylo xyloto and charlie brown which makes me start balling,, i can literally see the lights and feel the vibrations of the music in my heart like i did on that night :((((
Coldplay is the way, always said that.
1:31:20 goosebumps for 30 seconds. Nice to remember that concert.
+Luis M. Rivera This part always give me goosebumps.
I will never forget the stadium anouncers saying "Goodnight and goodbye"
Only Coldplay would turn down a closing segment of the Olympics to sing a full concert at the Paralympics.
these commentators are getting to me! i just want to hear coldplay sing i don't need all this commentary! wth!
@Coldplay Live Official we want the last song - politik - and i mean that version :D
1:19:30 until the beginning of Strawberry Swing is pure bliss
THANK YOU!!!
I could watch this over and over its the absolute best of British Ive ever seen
The paralympians are the real sport heroes. With dissabilities they still do sports on the best level
OMG Rih sounds so gooooood *_*
Coldplay got the venue and production they deserve and gave the athletes the show they deserved.
Thank You London, Thank You UK.
Shut it commentators!!
A bit too much jabbering by them announcers.
This is unwatchable with the folks talking over the awe-inspiring art.
Let the performance speak for itself.
Thank you! I love them!
Just fantastic Coldplay. SO the right band to have on stage this night, so many good causes supported by them over the years. Great band, superb guys

Absolutely sobbed at Viva La Vida. Geniuses. Complete and utter geniuses. So beautiful!!
Thank you for posting, great quality. Really appreciate you sharing!!
The scientist and game highlights were just heartwarming and inspiring
Thank god this is on RUclips! Went on holiday to the USA and they didn't even show anything from the Paralympics at all, meaning I missed this,
This is so amazing. Coldplay and everybody else did a great job.
The whole concert you almost can't hear the crowd because of the size of the stadium and and Viva la Vida (1:31:15) you can hear them so hard in the background... INCREDIBLE!
I was there on the field as an athlete...magic moment....unforgettable!
thanks for this!!!
Amazing
Win medals, make their countries proud, and got to enjoy coldplay. The athletes must have the time of their lives :)
The last clips made me emotional..I wish i could experience the upcoming Paralympics live
when coldplay started with Us Against The World,i screamed,my favourite EVER song!
I couldn't thank you enough!
stunning!
Loved every bit of it.
the paralympic anthem was THRILLING
THEY'VE DONE AN AMAZING RENDITION AND A GOOD WORK :)
Just watched this again. Such a great vibe and the music and the dancing. After such great preparation they should have taken this on the road.
