The London Olympic Games 2012 will commence on the 27th July, 2012 and close on 12th August 2012 while the Paralympics will commence on the 29th August 2012 and close on the 9th September 2012. The London 2012 Olympics and Paralympics may still be a little way away, but work is well under way at the Olympic Park in East London. The site includes the already iconic 80,000 seat Olympic Stadium, the graceful Aquatics Centre and the Velodrome.The Olympic Park Legacy Company picked West Ham as its preferred tenant for the $867 million stadium, which will stage the opening and closing ceremonies and track and field competition in 2012. The stadium, now under construction in east London, will host the opening and closing ceremonies, as well as track and field events. The structure is already built, and work is underway to install 80,000 spectator seats — 25,000 in the lower and 55,000 in the upper section.
