The closing ceremony of the 2022 Winter Paralympics took place at the Beijing National Stadium in Beijing, China, on March 13, 2022.

Preparations

The site of the closing ceremony, the Beijing National Stadium, was redeveloped in preparation for the ceremonies of both the 2022 Winter Olympics and the 2022 Winter Paralympics.

Zhang Yimou was the director of the closing ceremony of the 2022 Winter Paralympics. He was also the director of the opening ceremony as well as the opening and closing ceremonies of the 2022 Winter Olympics.

Proceedings

The ceremony included the flags of the 46 competing nations and their entry into the stadium accompanied by an arrangement of Beethoven's Ode to Joy.

A "call to love" performance occurred afterwards.

Anna Scavuzzo and Gianpietro Ghedina, the vice mayors of Milan and Cortina d'Ampezzo, Italy, respectively, were at the closing ceremony for the handover of the Paralympic flag, as the 2026 Winter Paralympics is scheduled to be held in Milan and Cortina d'Ampezzo, Italy.
