A total of 19 athletes will represent Montenegro in Paris, and the flag will be carried by tennis player Danka Kovinić and sailor Milivoj Dukić.

The heavy rain falling in Paris did not spoil the spectacle - for the first time in the history of the opening parade, it takes place outside the stadium, in a unique setting, on the river.
