UPDATE: NBC has made the closing ceremony available to livestream on the channel's Live Extra service. A cable provider login is required to view in the United States.
And that's a wrap, folks. Well, almost.
The 2014 Winter Olympics are drawing to a close Sunday, which means it's almost time for the closing ceremonies. Considering the wacky spectacle of a show Russia put on for the opening ceremonies, which including flying children, dancing bears and lots of ballet, we can only imagine as much for Sunday's events.
Expect to see another parade of athletes (this time with their medals in tow), a Filipino figure skater, a group of Korean musicians and an appearance by tennis star and gay-rights advocate Billy Jean King, who was appointed by President Barack Obama to the country's Olympic delegation.
Unfortunately, like the opening ceremonies, NBC will not be live-streaming the event on their website (which begin in Sochi at the symbolic time of 20:14). Instead, U.S. viewers will have to wait for the tape delayed ceremony to air at 8:30 p.m. EST.
If you can't wait though to witness the Olympic fun, here are some ways you can follow the closing ceremonies online and on social beginning at 11 a.m. EST.
On Television
U.S. viewers won't have access to watch the event live, but Canadian and European viewers can access the ceremony as it's happening. NBC will air the closing ceremony in the U.S. at 8:30 p.m. EST.
