[giorgos69 53]

The Simcup is a football tournament were cities compete with eachother and scores are computer simulated.

The host city give the result.

In the 2006 SimCup which was awarded to my city Georgiapolis, I have taken it upon myself to raise the bar on events such as this one as well as the Simlympics and the EXPO.

This all started at SSC.

My Simcup has been in planning for a while now and the opening was tonight. Here is an overview of it:

SimCup 2006 Georgiapolis - Opening Ceremony

The National Anthem of Georgiapolis was sung by Mixalis Paslidakis and it was chanted by the entire stadium. An illustration of the flag of Georgiapolis lit up the ground of the stadium during the anthem.

Following the national Anthem was a performance by local singer Kalomira Perkaris. Her performance also included a fireworks show.

After the singing performance was a laser show. The show displayed some of the history of Georgiapolis as well as its modern technologies. It lasted 20 minutes and was accompanied by a fireworks show and a DJing performance by Tiesto.

The mayor of Georgiapolis gave a speech.

"As a representative of this city, a city which has recently recieved a new lifeline, I welcome you. I welcome you, your family and your friends to our city and to our nation to experience what we hope will be the best SimCup in history. We have prepared for this, and in the end the legacy of the SimCup shall last a long time. We look forward to the next week of football and we hope you will look on with us. Go Georgiapolis!"

After this, a large amount of dancers performed Greek Dances for the eyes of the world. This was also accompanied with lights and fireworks which filled the skies above.

The night ended with a fantastic array of fireworks which dazzled all spectators:

There was also celebrations in the city centre of Harushia, the first celebrations in this city since the bombing of the World Trade Centre:
