The Special Olympics, founded by Eunice Kennedy Shriver, sister of John Fitzgerald Kennedy, is the world's largest sports movement for athletes with intellectual disabilities, promoting inclusion, acceptance, and empowerment through sports. Titled "The Strength of Kindness – La Forza della Gentilezza," the Opening Ceremony in Turin officially launched the Special Olympics World Winter Games 2025 with a night of emotions, poetry, and spectacle. A global tribute to courage and unity, the event brought together 1.500 athletes & Unified partners from 100 nations, 2.000 volunteers, and 100.000 spectators in a shared celebration of human connection. In a city that made Olympic history, Balich Wonder Studio created a show where athletes’ voices and journeys took centre stage. Broadcasted live worldwide, the Ceremony embraced diversity, resilience, and determination, turning the stage into a space of inspiration and unity. From the charismatic words of Timothy Shriver, Special Olympics Chairman, to the moving performances of Mr.Rain and Aloe Blacc, every moment reflected the power of kindness - because inclusion is not just a value, it’s what brings us together.
