The details of Sunday's closing ceremonies for the Vancouver 2010 Olympics are being kept top secret, but Executive Producer David Atkins is hinting at what is to be expected.
He tells TorontoSun.com that the show will be a "celeb-fest" while declining to name the famous performers who will take part.
He says the closing ceremonies will be a "celebration of Canadian humor, talent and innovation," adding that it will be quite a contrast to what was seen on the opening night of the Olympics.
Expect famous Canadians, including rock bands, at Sunday night's closing ceremonies.
When Atkins produced the Closing Ceremonies at the Sydney 2000 Olympics, performers included high-profile Australian acts such as Men At Work, INXS, Kylie Minogue, Midnight Oil, and Olivia Newton-John.
NBC will air the Closing Ceremonies for the 2010 Vancouver Winter Olympics at 7:30 p.m. on Sunday.
