2012 Olympics: Street Party in your street

The 2012 Games represented a unique opportunity for London and the UK. It was a wonderful excuse for a street party — not only is a street party a fun way for residents to celebrate such an event, it’s also a great way to get to know your neighbours better.

  • The parties could happen on any day between the games' start and end, that is, between 27 July and 12 August 2012.
  • We had special LOCOG Olympic bunting packs available for the first 8 fulfilled street parties!

The council provided advice and insurance cover.
