Where to watch Kylian Mbappe's Real Madrid introductory ceremony at Bernabeu: Live stream, start time, more

Real Madrid patiently waited until the summer international tournaments ended before officially introducing Kylian Mbappe at the Santiago Bernabeu Stadium. Over 80,000 people are expected to be in attendance for Mbappe's unveiling on Tuesday. It's slated to be a grand show with pyrotechnics and a 360-degree view of his walkup to the stage.

It was a highly anticipated move for the 26-year-old to join Real Madrid from Paris Saint-Germain on a free transfer and president Florentino Perez will conduct the ceremony ringing in the next generation of Galacticos led by the Frenchman. This would be slated to be a bigger unveiling than Cristiano Ronaldo's in 2009 which drew 75,000 fans.

Mbappe will wear the number nine for Madrid after signing as a free agent at the beginning of June. Looking at the breakdown of the unveiling, there will be a large walkway that Mbappe will come down similar to a concert walkway with fireworks included.

Joining a club that he has admired since he was a kid, this will be quite a moment for Mbappe who arrives with quite a goalscoring pedigree from Paris Saint-Germain. With 175 league goals since 2017-18, Mbappe is second only to Robert Lewandoski for goals scored during that period.
