Who gets to light the cauldron at celebration sites and to open the ATHENS 2004 Olympic Games?
ATHENS 2004 works with cities and National Olympic Committees to decide whom their first and final torchbearers will be in each city. ATHENS 2004 will select a final torchbearer to light the cauldron at the Opening Ceremony of the ATHENS 2004 Olympic Games on 13 August 2004. This is a closely held secret until the final moment.
