The ninth European Youth Games for the Disabled Emil Open were officially started by the festive ceremony in the sports ground of the Technical University in Brno Pod Palackým vrchem (Under the Palacky hill). The atmosphere was underlined by the flag bearers who also represented foreign countries who could not come due to the current situation. Their trainers were also part of the festive parade. The drummers also arrived at the stadium and rapper Lukáš Polčák was singing.
