It has capacity for the Games of approximately 80,000 making it temporarily the third largest stadium in Britain behind Wembley Stadium and Twickenham Stadium. Land preparation for the stadium began in mid 2007, with the official construction start date on 22 May 2008, although piling works for the foundation unofficially began four weeks ahead of that date. Construction ended on 29 March 2011.

Olympic Stadium is located on former industrial land between the Old River Lea, the City Mill River, and the Old Pudding Mill River; parts of the Bow Back Rivers. Two hundred meters to the east is the Waterworks River; on the eastern bank will be the Aquatics Centre. Another branch of this system, St Thomas' Creek, 200 meters to the south, completes an "island" surrounded by water.

The stadium design was launched on 7 November 2007. The architect, Populous, is an architectural firm specializing in the design of sports facilities and convention centers, as well as planning of major special events.

As of June 2009, the stadium's track and field arena has been excavated out of the soft clay found on the site, around which permanent seating for 25,000 has been assembled, using concrete rakes. The natural slope of the land is incorporated into the design, with warm-up and changing areas being dug into a semi basement position at the lower end.

Olympic mascots and Olympic Tickets

            The natural defense of the mascots is that they are not designed for adults, but for the children who will convince adults to buy them a bunch of merchandise with said mascots. Pandering to children isn’t an excuse for an uninspired design. The aforementioned Pixar caters to kids, yet its films still resonate with the older set.

         The very first Olympic mascot was created for the 1972 Munich games. Design legend Otl Aicher's cherished identity for the games used variations on Olympic colors but specifically did not use red or black because of their Nazi connotations. Waldi, a Dachshund, became a symbol of pride for Germans, who hoped to show the world a new, violence-free Germany. But the Munich games themselves were overshadowed by the horrific hostage crisis.

           The Beijing mascots for the 2008 games were named the Fuwa, five anime-like creatures meant to be rendered in traditional Chinese folk art style, but were just creepy reminders that China's mascot population is five times that of the rest of the world. The jury is still out on the Beijing games it will take a few years to see its true economic impact, as well as how it affected China's larger issues like censorship and human rights. The 72 year old suffered two heart attacks during the process and became so frustrated with the project he has since refused credit for them.

            Wenlock is named after Much Wenlock, a village in Shropshire which held an event in the 19th  century which inspired the modern Games. Mandeville is named after the hospital at which the Paralympics Games were founded. Though both sound like Tolkien characters, the names are quite good and are the only thing that makes the mascots distinctly British. They only have one pair of eyes between them and look like Sonic the Hedgehog crossed with a character from the Disney film Monsters Inc. But you had better get used to these strange blobs like creatures because Wenlock and Mandeville, as they are known, are the mascots for the 2012 Olympics and Paralympics respectively, and will be all over Britain for the next two years.

Opening Ceremony Tickets

The Olympic Movement uses symbols to represent the ideals embodied in the Olympic Charter. The Olympic symbol, better known as the Olympic rings, consists of five intertwined rings and represents the unity of the five inhabited continents (America, Africa, Asia, Australasia and Europe). The colored version of the rings blue, yellow, black, green, and red over a white field forms the Olympic flag. These colors were chosen because every nation had at least one of them on its national flag. The flag was adopted in 1914 but flown for the first time only at the1920 Summer Olympics in Antwerp, Belgium. It has since been hoisted during each celebration of the Games. 

The Olympic motto is Citius, Altius and Fortius, a Latin expression meaning "Faster, Higher, and Stronger". Coubertin's ideals are further expressed in the Olympic creed:

The most important thing in the Olympic Games is not to win but to take part, just as the most important thing in life is not the triumph but the struggle. The essential thing is not to have conquered but to have fought well. 

Months before each Game, the Olympic flame is lit in Olympia in a ceremony that reflects ancient Greek rituals. A female performer, acting as a priestess, ignites a torch by placing it inside a parabolic mirror which focuses the sun's rays; she then lights the torch of the first relay bearer, thus initiating the Olympic torch relay that will carry the flame to the host city's Olympic stadium, where it plays an important role in the opening ceremony. Though the flame has been an Olympic symbol since 1928, the torch relay was introduced at the 1936 Summer Games, as part of the German government's attempt to promote its National Socialist ideology. 

The Olympic mascot, an animal or human figure representing the cultural heritage of the host country, was introduced in 1968. It has played an important part on the Games identity promotion since the 1980 Summer Olympics, when the Russian bear cub Misha reached international stardom. The mascots of the most recent Summer Olympics, in Beijing, were the Fuwa, five creatures that represent the five fengshui elements important in Chinese culture. 

As mandated by the Olympic Charter, various elements frame the opening ceremony of the Olympic Games. Most of these rituals were established at the 1920 Summer Olympics in Antwerp. The ceremony typically starts with the hoisting of the host country's flag and a performance of its national anthem. The host nation then presents artistic displays of music, singing, dance, and theater representative of its culture. The artistic presentations have grown in scale and complexity as successive hosts attempt to provide a ceremony that outlasts its predecessor's in terms of memo ability. The opening ceremony of the Beijing Games reportedly cost $100 million, with much of the cost incurred in the artistic segment. 

After the artistic portion of the ceremony, the athletes parade into the stadium grouped by nation. Greece is traditionally the first nation to enter in order to honor the origins of the Olympics. Nations then enter the stadium alphabetically according to the host country's chosen language, with the host country's athletes being the last to enter. During the 2004 Summer Olympics, which was hosted in Athens, Greece, the Greek flag entered the stadium first, while the Greek delegation entered last. Speeches are given, formally opening the Games. Finally, the Olympic torch is brought into the stadium and passed on until it reaches the final torch carrier often a well-known and successful Olympic athlete from the host nation who lights the Olympic flame in the stadium's cauldron.

Opening ceremony has more importance than other events and sports of Olympic Games. Many stars are coming to increase the charm and atmosphere of enjoyment. Olympic Opening Ceremony Tickets are being sold more and more. People are interested to enjoy this ceremony live. Opening Ceremony Tickets are available at Global Ticket Market.
