To underscore the brothery unity of Olympic sport, the athletes entered without being grouped separately by nationality. They were accompanied by over 500 Aboriginal people in festive costumes, and entered the five rings formed by the young women; they then erected tents in the colours of the Olympic rings.

The President of the IOC declared the closing of the Games. The Olympic Flag was lowered and eight athletes carried the flag out of the stadium.
The Olympic Flame went out, signalling the end of the Montréal Games. Finally, the announcer revealed the location of the next Games: Moscow. And, on giant screens, live from Moscow, dancers and singers performed a short number and presented a gigantic candle on the screen.
The crowd in the Olympic Stadium then waved lit candles or light stics as a gesture of friendship. The Olympic Games of Montreal in 1976 ended.
