All stops pulled out for closing 'Euro symphony'

PARIS-David Guetta and Zara Larsson will perform official UEFA Euro 2016 song ‘This One's For You’ one last time ahead of the final between Portugal and France, with the official closing ceremony sure to have fans all over the world – and the crowd at the Stade de France – on their feet.

Superstar DJ Guetta and Swedish chanteuse Larsson will be the centre of attention, with a cast of literally thousands eager to get in on the act in what is being billed as 'The Euro Symphony'. Tournament organisers are eager to say a huge "MERCI" to the finalists and the fans who have made this championship so special. A million fans famously took part in the recording of This One's For You, and participation in the final spectacular will also be on a grand scale, with performers and musicians from the Paris Fire Brigade, the French Republican Guard and the Choir of Radio France all involved, along with spectators at the Stade de France, who will feature in a sensational 'tifo'. There have been opening ceremonies at all 50 UEFA Euro 2016 games so far, but the 51st will vie to be the most eye-catching yet. It will be huge, it will be thrilling, it will be dramatic, and all of this before the main event has even kicked off.
