Huntsman World Senior Games opening ceremony tonight

Tonight at 7pm the Huntsman World Senior Games will officially welcome the athletes to the community at the opening ceremonies.

Following the tradition of the Olympics, the ceremonies feature a parade of athletes, a concert, a fireworks display and more.

The free event takes place at Trailblazer Stadium at Dixie State University.

Three-time Olympic Gold Medalist Leah Amico will give the keynote address, speaking on athletes achieving their dreams.

Borrowing a line from Billy Joel, the theme of the show is “River of Dreams” and will feature music from the Piano Man.
