The 2025 Invictus Games have wrapped up in Vancouver with a closing ceremony headlined by Prime Minister Justin Trudeau and Prince Harry, the Duke of Sussex.
Event producer Patrick Roberge said at a news conference earlier this week that the closing ceremony is meant to be “more intimate” than the opening ceremony held last week at BC Place Stadium in front of a crowd of about 40,000.
Roberge said Sunday’s closing ceremony at Rogers Arena is planned for a crowd of 12,000, with heavy focus on the competitors and their “journey at the Games.”
“The only one on the floor of the arena will be the competitors of the Games, along with our dignitaries for the show,” Roberge said.
