The closing ceremony of the 1994 Winter Olympics was held in Lysgårdsbakken in Lillehammer, Norway on 27 February 1994.
All spectators were handed a flashlight with the inscription "Remember Sarajevo" – the host of the 1984 Winter Olympics which was at the heart of the Bosnian War.
The first entrants on the stage were Liv Ullmann and Thor Heyerdal,[1] followed by the athletes' precession.
After the flag had been transferred to Nagano mayor Tasuku Tsukada, speeches were held by Lillehammer mayor Audun Tron, LOOC head Gerhard Heiberg and IOC president Juan Antonio Samaranch.
Of the 2,200 people performing in the opening and closing ceremonies, only 50 were professionals.
