New Developments

The Olympic Park isn't the only place where the Olympic effect can be felt. Venues all over London were involved with the Games by hosting sport or hospitality events, or launching or being refurbished in anticipation of being seen by the world. They are now ready and waiting to deliver more world-class events.
