Forget swanking off to sunnier climes. Forget opting for a less expensive summer break and going camping at some idyllic rural campsite in Britain. In fact you can even forget leaving London altogether this August, as with the Olympic Games being hosted by the British capital, there could possibly not be a more exciting, buzzing, vibrant and pulsating place to be than London this summer!

If you didn’t manage to bag yourself a ticket for what happens to be one of the biggest events our capital has ever hosted, then fear not, as you can see all the action live abound by truly authentic London atmosphere at Trafalgar Square, Hyde Park or Victoria Park.

London Live is a series of outdoor screening of this year’s Olympic and Paralympic Games, which will take place in three of London’s most iconic venues – Trafalgar Square, Victoria and Hyde Park. The screenings are free and everyone is welcome to come and view the exciting sporting events that will be taking place in London throughout the summer.

Asides the giant outdoor screens, visitors will have the opportunity to participate in some sporting action themselves with daily sporting activities put on at the three venues for all different ages and abilities.  And if watching the nail-biting heats, semi-finals and finals wasn’t entertaining enough, the London Live event venues will also be hosting concerts, outdoor arts and performances, as well as other entertaining activities for all the family to enjoy.

The London Live event is part of the capital’s commitment to ensure that as many people as possible have chance to be involved in the Olympic celebrations and to witness the Games is as an atmospheric way as possible.

Sharing his enthusiasm for the London Live event, the Mayor of London, Boris Johnson said in a London Live press release:

“With its unbeatable locations London Live will be a thrilling highlight in a summer of highlights, allowing even more people to watch awe inspiring sporting heroes in high definition action for free, and other fantastic attractions for Londoners and visitors alike.”
