The Olympics only have one event left and now all we can do is sit back, enjoy the Closing Ceremony and it is rumored to be one hell of a show. 

The event is named "A Symphony of British Music" and it will travel back in time reliving the best British songs and celebrate the biggest British artists in the past 50 years.

We are talking about legends like The Beatles, David Bowie, The Rolling Stones and Elton John. Paul McCartney already closed out the Opening Ceremony on the 27th. 

David Beckham did not perform in the London 2012 Olympics, even though he had a major part in getting the event to the city, but his wife Victoria will be performing as The Spice Girls, who took the world by storm in the late 90's are set to take the stage and come back as a group. 

The passing of the Olympic Flag will occur as Rio de Janeiro will host the Games in 2016. It will be a new start for athletes, especially for the Brazilian soccer team that was a victory away from claiming their first Olympic gold medal. 

The torch that has beeng lighting the night in London will be extinguished at the end of the ceremony. 

The show kicks off at 4 p.m. ET/9 p.m. GMT. It won't be shown on television until 7 p.m. ET and 7 p.m. PT. It is recommended that everybody check their local listings for the correct time in each time zone.
