Earlier the Olympic flame had been doused, closing a Games that will be remembered for the extremes of its anti-COVID-19 measures and outrage over the doping scandal that enveloped 15-year-old Russian skating sensation Kamila Valieva.
Sunday night's ceremony was capped by a 90-second fireworks display that spelled out "one world, one family," followed by a rendition of "Auld Lang Syne".
During the ceremony, Bach praised Beijing's organisers and made a call for unity as well as universal access to COVID-19 vaccines
