As mandated by the Olympic Charter, the proceedings are expected to combine the formal and ceremonial opening of this international sporting event, including welcoming speeches, hoisting of the flags and the parade of athletes, with an artistic spectacle to showcase the host nation's winter culture and modern history.[1] The Games are expected officially to be opened by Xi Jinping, general secretary of the Chinese Communist Party and president of the People's Republic of China.[2]

The opening ceremony is expected to be directed by film director and producer Zhang Yimou, who has previously directed the opening and closing ceremonies of the 2008 Summer Olympics, which was China's first time hosting the Olympics.[3]
