Opening Ceremony's Olympic all-nighter

Opening Ceremony will celebrate the 8.8.08 Olympic Summer Games by keeping its New York and L.A. boutiques open 24 hours a day for the entirety of the opening weekend, opening a shop-in-shop named Souvenir selling limited edition Opening Ceremony 2008 items and exclusive Nike Sportswear products.
The event lasts for 72 hours during which time customers are invited to watch the Olympic games on TV, shop at Souvenir, and participate in a “3am Scrabble Hour” or “7am Breakfast for Champions.”
The Air Max 1, Nike’s first sneaker to offer visible Nike Air technology in the sole and originally released in 1987, will be available in very limited quantities in two colors (gold and silver metallic), stocked solely at Opening Ceremony.
Also on sale will be Opening Ceremony 2008-branded items such as key chains, coin holders, towels, hats, and umbrellas, plus very limited edition jewelry items from Philip Crangi, and charm bracelets by Fallon.
Opening Ceremony was founded in September of 2002 in New York by Carol Lim and Humberto Leon with the idea of bringing their love of travel and fashion to a single concept boutique.
Opening Ceremony has stores at 35 Howard St., New York, NY 10013 (212-219-2688) and at 451 North La Cienega Blvd, Los Angeles, California 90048 (310 652 1120). Visit openingceremony.us
