LONDON
OLYMPICS 2012


About the games
Olympic Park on the Spotlight
The London 2012 Games were centred around the Olympic Park in East London, which is the site of a
number of new sports venues. Up to 180,000 spectators a day entered the Park to enjoy the Games,
making it the principal focus of Olympic activity. The main venues—the Olympic Stadium, Aquatics
Centre, Velodrome and BMX Circuit, as well as the hockey, handball and basketball arenas—were easily
accessible through a network of footbridges and walkways within the Park.
The Olympic Village was within walking distance of all the venues in the Park, enhancing the
experience for athletes and officials. The use of other prestigious venues—such as Wembley Stadium
for football, the All-England Club in Wimbledon for tennis, Lord’s Cricket Ground for archery and
Horse Guards Parade for beach volleyball—was also a feature of the London 2012 Olympic and
Paralympic Games.
