Opening Ceremony: 9.50 PM

Saturday September 9: ABC2 and ABCHD

ABC TV's coverage of the Paralympic Games Beijing 2008 begins on Saturday September 6 at 9.50pm, when your host Adam Hills, along with Paralympic Gold Medallist Louise Sauvage and ABC Sport presenter Karen Tighe bring you all the colour and excitement of the spectacular Opening Ceremony LIVE.

The Ceremony promises to show the world the history and culture of China. It will also emphasise the value of life through interpretation of the emblem of the 2008 Paralympic Games, which represents Sky, Earth and Human Beings.

As Australia's largest ever Paralympic team of 170 athletes arrive to compete at the 2008 Beijing Games, ABC TV will be there to bring you all of the excitement.
