The 12th Chengdu World Games staged on Monday the first full run-through of the closing ceremony which will take place on Sunday evening.

The closing ceremony, with its preparations now in their final stages, will be held at the International Friendship Pavilion of the Chengdu International Horticultural Exposition Park.
Lasting about an hour, the closing ceremony will include a video montage of the Games' highlights, the athletes' entrance, the flag handover, and a mix of cultural and sports performances, all designed to foster a warm, joyful, and relaxed atmosphere.
Monday's rehearsal was a full-scale test of the ceremony's program, schedule, and technical systems, aimed at ensuring the event is delivered at its very best for audiences worldwide.
First held in 1981 and staged every four years, the World Games is the highest-level international multi-sport event outside the Olympic Games, featuring sports and disciplines that are not on the Olympic program. This year's competition runs from Aug 7 to 17.
