#3 London 2012
There is quite no other nation that has more class than England and the opening ceremony of the 2012 London Olympics was a fantastic representation of the same. Proper, spectacular and almost beyond reproach, this ceremony, held at Olympic Stadium, was seen by around 900 million people around the world. Arguably the best thing about the ceremony was its meticulous detailing and how it was kept as a secret despite the huge scale.
A large number of famous faces were a part of the ceremony, including actors Daniel Craig and Rowan Atkinson, which showed all the glory of Great Britain, right from the Industrial revolution, food, culture to the National Health Service. The use of music and an excellent sense of storytelling won over the hearts of fans from around the world and Britain was lauded for its “young” approach to the ceremony.
