We are around 30 minutes away from the start of the CWG 2026 closing ceremony. If the opening ceremony is anything to go by, tonight's event is set to be another glittering affair at Glasgow's OVO Hydro arena.

Veteran singer Shankar Mahadevan and 2017 Miss World Manushi Chillar are the headline Indian names set to dazzle in tonight's opening ceremony. Popular actor Rashmika Mandanna was also reported to feature, but there's no confirmation on her presence as yet.

With India hosting the Games in 2030, a unique Indian flavour will be added to the closing ceremony.

Despite a number of their best sports not being in this year's competition, India finished Glasgow 2026 with a total of 39 medals (13 gold, 17 silver, 9 bronze). A haul of 10 boxing medals was the standout feature of a successful campaign, at the end of which they finished fourth in the overall medal table.

The parade of the nations is set to be another notable feature of the closing ceremony. India's flag-bearer will be boxer Jaismine Lamboria, who was one of seven Indian boxers to win gold at this year's Games.

We are set for a distinct concoction of Scottish, Indian and international music and dance in the closing ceremony of Glasgow 2026. Rock band Simple Minds leads the features representing the home nation. They will be joined by Scottish musicians Cammy Barnes, BEMZ and Sandi Thoms.

Popular singer Shankar Mahadevan and actor Manushi Chillar will headline India's performances. We are also gearing up for a fusion between Scottish musician Ross Ainslie and Indian sitarist Rishab Sharma.

Celebrate the memories, the champions, and witness the Commonwealth Games flag make its historic journey from Glasgow to Amdavad, host of the landmark 2030 Centenary Games.
