The opening ceremony, which was held at the Abduli Waid Stadium in Dakar, lasted more than two hours, and about 30,000 people watched what was happening from the stands. In addition to the colorful show, the culmination of which was the lighting of the cup with the Olympic flame, spectators crowded the arena to watch the team parade.
