The Paris 2024 Olympics will conclude with a musical celebration featuring some of Los Angeles’ most prominent artists.

The closing ceremony on Sunday (Aug. 11) will feature performances by three of L.A.’s most influential acts: Billie Eilish, Snoop Dogg, and the Red Hot Chili Peppers, each representing different facets of the city’s rich cultural heritage. The event will also feature a performance from H.E.R., who will take the stage at the Stade de France to sing the U.S. National Anthem as part of the elaborate handover to the next host city, Los Angeles in 2028.

“This is the biggest moment in LA28 history to date, as the Olympic flag passes from Paris to LA,” LA28 chairperson and president Casey Wasserman said in a statement. “We are thrilled to feature the very best of LA with local artists and are grateful to Billie, H.E.R., the Chili Peppers and Snoop for their collaboration on what will be an incredible show to a global audience that will give fans a taste of what’s to come in 2028.”

The artists will be seen from Los Angeles in a mix of pre-taped and live performances, a musical handover for the 2028 L.A. Olympic Games. The LA28 Countdown, hosted by five-time Olympic tennis champion Venus Williams, is produced by Fulwell 73 Productions, under the creative direction of Emmy Award-winning executive producer and creator Ben Winston.

A native of Highland Park, Billie Eilish has become one of the defining musical voices of her generation. Her debut album, When We All Fall Asleep, Where Do We Go?, not only topped the Billboard 200 but also made her the youngest artist to sweep all four major Grammy categories in a single year.

Eilish, whose hit “Bad Guy” reached No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100, famously paid homage to her city’s iconic landmarks and culture in her 2021 concert film, Happier Than Ever: A Love Letter to Los Angeles.

Snoop Dogg, a cornerstone of West Coast rap, has already been a standout figure throughout the Paris Games. From his viral commentary for NBC to his role as the U.S. Olympic torchbearer, Snoop has brought his charisma to the global stage and solidified himself as somewhat of an unofficial ambassador for the country.

Snoop, whose career spans three decades, has consistently charted on the Billboard Hot 100, including his debut single “Who Am I (What’s My Name?)” and collaborations like “Drop It Like It’s Hot”. Beyond his music career, Snoop has ventured into acting, launched a successful line of cannabis products, and even hosted a cooking show with Martha Stewart.

Rounding out the musical trifecta are hometown heroes, the Red Hot Chili Peppers. Formed in Los Angeles in 1983, the band has been a driving force in the city’s music scene for decades.

The band has a long history of success on the Billboard charts, with albums like Blood Sugar Sex Magik and Californication dominating the Billboard 200. Their hit singles “Under the Bridge” and “Scar Tissue” are also staples on the Billboard Hot 100.

But the music isn’t the only draw. Hollywood’s Tom Cruise is reportedly set to perform a stunt that rivals his most famous movie scenes, according to TMZ.

Cruise will reportedly rappel from the top of Stade de France clutching the Olympic flag, followed by a pre-recorded segment showing him skydiving onto the iconic Hollywood sign.
