"The LA28 Paralympic Handover will be a historic moment, as Los Angeles prepares to host the city's first-ever Paralympic Games," LA28 Chairperson and President Casey Wasserman said. "When Paris hands the flag over to LA, we are thrilled to have the opportunity to spotlight the Paralympics with a cast of allies, artists and advocates who share our commitment to furthering the Movement."
The Paralympic flag will be passed to Los Angeles during the ceremony. Stroker will sing the U.S. national anthem live at the Stade de France with more performances to follow against the backdrop of Venice Beach.
Whitaker, Lea and rapper and athlete Garnett Silver-Hall will be part of an "interactive musical performance" from .Paak.
"I'm really honored to be a part of the Handover celebration and welcoming the Paralympic Games to my native state of California," said .Paak, of Oxnard. "There's a lot in common between Paralympic athletes and music artists -- work ethic, trust, time, dedication to your craft, exceeding expectations, taking big bets on yourself. The LA28 Handover will amp up this connection while bowing to the spectacular achievements made by Paralympians from around the world in Paris and LA."
.Paak will be joined by athletes in the world of adaptive skateboarding and wheelchair motocross, including Oscar Loreto Jr., Kanya Sesser and Aaron "Wheelz" Fotheringham. Actress Lauren Ridloff from "The Walking Dead" and Marvel's "Eternals" will also be featured in the Handover.
"The Paralympic Games coming to Los Angeles for the first time will be one of the most significant moments in history for people with a disability," said Frech, who won two gold medals in this summer's Paris Games. "For me as an LA native, it will absolutely be one the most memorable moments in my sporting career and life -- an experience I cannot wait to share with my hometown and community."
The 2028 Summer Paralympics will take place Aug. 22-Sept. 3 after Los Angeles hosts the 2028 Summer Olympics.
