Football icon David Beckham will lead a star-packed closing ceremony tonight as Beijing farewells the thousands of athletes who've competed at the 29th Olympiad.
Tonight's closing ceremony will have a distinctly British feel, with the highlight being a bright red double decker bus which will enter the national stadium before transforming into iconic shapes of the London skyline such as Tower Bridge and the Houses of Parliament.
It's all part of a special handover for the 2012 Games.

Organisers of tonight's closing ceremony say it won't be as artistically creative as the opening performance, with the climax expected to be the farewelling of the flame as it is extinguished in the main cauldron.
China's cultural diversity will once again be on display, with kung fu demonstrations and Chinese violinists.
Organisers haven't had much time to rehearse inside the stadium given the athletics events, instead they are aiming for more of a party atmosphere and a celebration for the athletes who have made these games unforgettable.
