Look back at... Closing Ceremony

Closing Ceremony of Gay Games VIII took place at Tanzbrunnen in the Rheinpark on the right bank of the Rhine. First to enter was the delegation representing the FGG, bearing flags with the logos of each edition of Gay Games through Cologne and beyond to Cleveland-Akron.

After another spectacular show by gold-medal winning Cheer San Francisco, ceremonial aspects included speeches by Deputy Mayor Elfi Scho-Antwerpes and FGG and Games Cologne Co-Presidents, the arrival of the Gay Games VIII torch, carried by sports director Dagmar Ziege, an award for the Gay Games VIII outstanding volunteer, and above all, the transfer of the Gay Games flag from host Games Cologne to the FGG and then to our host for 2014 in Cleveland-Akron.

The evening continued with a festival feel, with plenty of food and drink, great live music, and much socializing.
