In a departure from convention, the opening ceremony will take place the day before the first match. This decision was taken because the matches begin at 2 PM IST, making it unfeasible to organize such a large event during the day. The fireworks and laser show will sparkle best in the nighttime setting.
Along with fans, key officials from the ICC and the BCCI are expected to be present. All cricket boards’ highest-ranking officials have been invited, ensuring a gathering of significant personalities at this historic event.
To summarize, the grand opening of the Cricket World Cup 2023 promises to be a harmonic blend of music, culture, and sportsmanship, creating the perfect atmosphere for the cricketing spectacle that will follow. Cricket fans, music fans, and entertainment fans alike will be treated to a once-in-a-lifetime experience on October 4th, as Ahmedabad is getting ready to host this memorable event at the Narendra Modi Stadium.
