Commonwealth Games opening ceremony highlights | 7NEWS
The Commonwealth Games opening ceremonies have evolved from the modest Empire Games in Sydney 1938 with 500 athletes to spectacular productions featuring giant mascots, cultural icons and theatrical performances. Australian host cities have created memorable moments including Brisbane’s 13-metre Matilda the kangaroo in 1982, Melbourne’s flying tram landing at the MCG in 2006, and the Gold Coast’s whale-watching spectacle in 2018. Glasgow prepares to host its opening ceremony, continuing the tradition of host cities showcasing their culture and identity to the world.
