Euro 2024 opening ceremony and tribute to Beckenbauer are short and emotional

The Euro 2024 opening ceremony did not last too long, but was still impressive enough for those who watched.

Not much information about the opening ceremony of Euro 2024 has been announced by the host country. European press and fans are expecting colorful and spectacular performances. In fact, the organizers have brought simple, short but equally impressive performances. The performances were performed by artists in colorful costumes, creating highlights. The songs were performed simply with vibrant choreography. However, the official song of the tournament, FIRE, was not performed at the Allianz Arena. It is very possible that this performance was saved for the closing ceremony.

In addition, the moment of paying tribute to the late legend Franz Beckenbauer brought a lot of emotions. Mrs. Heidi - wife of the "king of football", along with two former German captains Bernard Dietz and Jurgen Klinnsmann brought the Euro Cup (named Hendi Delaunay) to the Allianz Arena. Tribute videos were played on the field and Mrs. Heidi was clearly moved. Fans on the field also had a wave of applause to honor the late legend, who helped bring home the 1974 World Cup and Euro 1972 championships. The entire Euro 2024 opening ceremony and Beckenbauer's tribute only lasted about 8 minutes. But the impression left on fans was quite strong.

The Euro 2024 opening ceremony is scheduled to begin at 1:30 a.m. on June 15. Tuoi Tre Online will update the developments and impressive images of this ceremony.

Up to now, all information about the opening ceremony of Euro 2024 is still a mystery. The host country Germany as well as the Union of European Football Associations (UEFA) have not provided much information to the press and the public.

There was almost only one performance announced, a ceremony to honor "emperor" Franz Beckenbauer - who passed away earlier this year.

While still playing, Beckenbauer helped West Germany win the 1974 World Cup and Euro 1972. Notably, the Allianz Arena - where the Euro 2024 opening ceremony will be held - is the home ground of Bayern Munich, the club Beckenbauer played for for a long time.

At the ceremony, Mr. Beckenbauer's wife, Mrs. Heidi, will carry the Euro championship trophy (Hendi Delaunay Cup) onto the field. Accompanying Mrs. Heidi will be Bernard Dietz and Jurgen Klinsmann - former captains of the German team.

Additionally, another act that could appear at the Euro 2024 opening ceremony is the performance of the tournament's official song, FIRE .

Artists featured in the song include Italian band MEDUZA, American band One Republic and German singer Leony, who could appear on stage at the Allianz Arena.

In addition, there is no further information about the performances or artists that will appear at the Euro 2024 opening ceremony. Therefore, the European press can only predict that the opening ceremony will last about 20 - 30 minutes, then give way to the match between Germany and Scotland.

Around 70,000 people are expected to attend the Allianz Arena.
