Welcome message from... the IPC President
Welcome message from... the London 2012 Organising Committee Chair
Dear members of the Paralympic Family, dear friends,
The London 2012 Paralympic Games are the culmination of seven years of hard work by a dedicated, determined and exceptionally talented team. Ever since London won the bid to stage the Games back in 2005, it has been our ambition to show what can be achieved through the inspiration of sport, and to create distinctive Paralympic Games that capture the imagination of young people throughout the world.
On behalf of the International Paralympic Committee (IPC), I want to welcome you to the London 2012 Paralympic Games. The Games are coming home to the country where it all started with Sir Ludwig Guttman organising sporting events for veterans of World War II. Ever since, the Paralympic Games have been an exceptional success story and London will write the next chapter in this story. Over the course of 12 days, London will be at the heart of the Paralympic Movement, welcoming more than 4,200 athletes from more than 150 countries to compete against each other at the highest level Paralympic sport can offer. The iconic London venues will provide a spectacular background for our athletes to showcase Paralympic sport at its very best and true Paralympic ‘spirit in motion’. During each sporting performance at the London 2012 Paralympic Games, you will see the triumph of Paralympic passion, fair play and camaraderie in an environment where Paralympic athletes will inspire and excite the world. This Paralympic Family guide will better facilitate your stay during the Paralympic Games, providing a wealth of information and basic facts for easy reference. All facilities and support services are listed here to help you get the most out of your experience in London.
The construction of the Olympic Park, centrepiece of our Games, has been the catalyst for the single biggest transformation in London for more than a century. Our city will sparkle with a vibrant Paralympic look and feel, and its diverse communities from more than 200 countries will provide an unprecedented welcome to every competing nation. London landmarks such as Big Ben, Buckingham Palace and Greenwich Park will serve as unforgettable venues and backdrops for sport, helping to create a magical atmosphere throughout the city and inspiring the athletes to excel. We are confident you will enjoy the unique and uplifting spirit which distinguishes the Paralympic Games from other events. This guide is designed to enhance your experience. It contains key information about all aspects of the Games, including venues, ceremonies, ticketing, transport, accreditation and accommodation. We also have our enthusiastic and well-trained Games Makers who are ready to assist you in any way they can. On behalf of everyone at London 2012, may I sincerely welcome you to our Paralympic Games. I trust you will long remember your time with us and leave with a treasure trove of memories.
I would like to express my appreciation to the London 2012 Organising Committee for providing this useful tool, and I would also like to thank everyone who has contributed to this exceptional sporting experience. As you take in each experience while at the Games, I hope that you leave with an impression of inspiration that lasts a lifetime!
Sir Philip Craven President, International Paralympic Committee (IPC)
Seb Coe Chair, London 2012 Organising Committee (LOCOG)
'If you look at the UK, it is at the forefront of educating people about disabilities and accommodating people with disabilities.'

The Paralympic Movement
History of the Paralympic Games In 1948, Sir Ludwig Guttmann organised a sports competition for World War II veterans with spinal cord injuries in Stoke Mandeville, England. Four years later, competitors from the Netherlands joined the Games and an international movement was born. Now called the Paralympic Games, Olympic-style Games for athletes with a disability were organised for the first time in Rome in 1960. In Toronto in 1976, other disability groups were added and the idea of merging together different disability groups for international sport competitions was born. Today, the Paralympic Games are an elite sport event for athletes from various disability groups. The Paralympic Games have traditionally been held in the same year as the Olympic Games. Since the Seoul 1988 Paralympic Games and the Albertville 1992 Paralympic Winter Games the Games have also taken place at the same venues as the Olympic Games. On 19 June 2001, an agreement was signed between the International Olympic Committee (IOC) and the International Paralympic Committee (IPC) securing this practice for the future. The Paralympic Games today are the second biggest sporting event in the world, attracting millions of spectators. International Paralympic Committee The International Paralympic Committee is the global governing body of the Paralympic Movement. The IPC organises Paralympic Games held in both the summer and winter, and serves as the International Sport Federation (IF) for nine sports, for which it supervises and coordinates world championships and other competitions. The IPC is committed to helping Paralympic athletes achieve sporting excellence and developing sport opportunities for all people with a disability from beginner to elite level. In addition, the IPC aims to promote the Paralympic Values, which are courage, determination, inspiration and equality. Founded on 22 September 1989, the IPC is an international non-profit organisation formed and run by more than 160 National Paralympic Committees from five regions and four disability-specific international sport federations. The IPC headquarters and its management team are located in Bonn, Germany.

Clients should bring their Pre-Valid Card with a valid passport when travelling to the UK – it will demonstrate their status as a Paralympic Family member to both airline carriers and the UK Border Agency (UKBA) and will act as a visa waiver. Therefore, Paralympic Family members should remember to carry their Pre-Valid Card with them in their hand luggage and not in their check-in luggage. If the client normally requires a visa to enter the UK and has not previously supplied the Border Force with biometric data, this will need to be collected at the UK border.

The T3 transport system offers services to the Paralympic Family Hotels, as well as a number of T3 drop-off points at other hotels and venues throughout London. Airport validation counters will be available at the international terminals of London Heathrow Airport for accreditation card validation. Please see the Accreditation section for operating hours.
Arrivals at other ports of entry For members of the Paralympic Family arriving at Gatwick Airport, City Airport, Stansted Airport or St. Pancras International, LOCOG has worked closely with each of these ports to offer a level of meet and greet service.

However, it is not possible to guarantee this due to resource constraints. There will be no accreditation validation facility at any of these entry points – this is limited to the official port of entry only. However, Paralympic Family members can validate their accreditation at the Paralympic Family Hotel, or any Games venue. Once the client has cleared customs, LOCOG will provide a pre-bookable transport service to any of the T3 drop off points for T1, T2 and T3 eligible clients. To book this service, clients must input their final, confirmed flight details into the ADS at least seven days in advance. Please note that since this is a bespoke transport service, we urge clients to provide as much notice as possible to ensure the smoothest possible transition to their onward destination. The London Ambassador programme (operated by the City of London) will have a London 2012 branded presence in the Arrivals Hall of each of these ports with which LOCOG will be liaising. Please note that LOCOG is not able to facilitate arrivals at any other port of entry.
Departure information
LOCOG encourages all Paralympic Family members to depart from Heathrow Airport, the official port of exit. LOCOG will provide T3 transport from official T3 destinations to all Heathrow Airport terminals. This service will be available for the duration of the Arrivals and Departures Service period. It is vital that the ADS is kept up to date with departure plans to ensure resources are available to provide clients with the services they require. T1 and T2 transport services will be available to clients with appropriate entitlement. T3 transport services will be a mixture of coaches and cars. Clients should check with the Paralympic Information Desk or the Transport Desk in the Paralympic Family Hotels for advice on departure times or any other departure information.
Airport check-in Online check-in is recommended to ease the process through the airport. Paralympic Family members are requested to check the availability of online check-in services on their chosen airline’s website. Clients who do not use an online check-in service, or where the service is not available, should check in for their flight according to standard airline procedures.
Airport security procedures Please ensure that any liquids carried in hand baggage are in containers of 100ml or less and can fit in a clear plastic bag (provided at the airport) when presented to airport security staff.

Paralympic Family Lounges
Paralympic Family Lounges will be available at each competition venue during the Games. Accredited guests with ‘zone 6’ will have access to these lounges. Food and beverages, Info+ terminals, printed results and cable TVs will be provided in all lounges. In addition, there will be a Paralympic Family Information Desk in every lounge providing transport, venue and competition-related information to Paralympic Family members. The lounge opens one hour before competition and closes one hour after competition or the end of the victory ceremony. Seating There will be dedicated Paralympic Family Stands in each competition venue for Paralympic Family members. The stands will be divided into Official Stand (O) and Federation Stand (F). Venue Protocol staff will be on site to direct guests to their designated seating area according to the seating privileges indicated on their accreditation cards. The stands open one hour before competition and close one hour after competition or the end of the victory ceremony. Safety and security Although you have accreditation, you will still need to go through security checks when you arrive at London 2012 venues, and you and your bags will be searched.

IBC/MPC complex
IBC/MPC complex and services Located in the north-west corner of the Olympic Park, the IBC/MPC complex will provide superlative facilities and services to accredited press and broadcasters for the Paralympic Games. The complex comprises the International Broadcast Centre (IBC), the Main Press Centre (MPC), the Media Transport Mall, a Media High Street and a Catering Village for use by all accredited media. International Broadcast Centre (IBC) The IBC will act as the headquarters for the Paralympic radio and television production of the London 2012 Paralympic Games, serving as the primary base of operations for Olympic Broadcasting Services (OBS) and Rights Holding Broadcaster (RHB) personnel. All television and radio signals for Paralympic coverage will pass through the IBC under the direction of OBS. The IBC is 275 metres long, 104m wide and 21m high, and consists of more than 42,000 square metres of functional space on two levels, including a variety of technical and administrative facilities for both OBS and the RHBs such as edit suites; control rooms; RHB studios; OBS management offices; Contribution, Distribution and Transmission (CDT); Commentary Switching Centre (CSC); Broadcast Operations Centre (BOC); and Production Quality Control (PQC). OBS Guest Pass Office in the IPC Valid accreditation is required to access the IBC. The OBS Guest Pass Office will provide guest passes for individuals who have a legitimate reason to visit the IBC. Guests include:
Please note the following: – Valid identification (for example, PIAC, passport, UK driver’s licence) will be needed for collection of the guest pass and will be returned only at the conclusion of the visit. – A guest pass is valid for the date of issue only. – No more than three guest passes will be issued to the same person during the Games. Locations There are two OBS Guest Pass Offices: – Guest Pass Office 1 (main): located in the multi-storey car park outside the IBC. – Guest Pass Office 2 (secondary): located on the walkway between the IBC and MPC off Canada Place Way. As this office is located inside the Olympic Park common domain, applicants must obtain in advance a nonevent ticket to gain access to the Olympic Park. If accessing via Stratford, applicants enter the Park using their non-event ticket and then proceed to the Guest Pass Office 2 near the link bridge to the IBC/MPC complex. Main Press Centre The Main Press Centre will act as the home away from home for the 2,500 press, photographers and Non-Rights Holding Broadcasters accredited to the Paralympic Games. The MPC comprises more than 29,000 square metres of functional space providing primary services and facilities to the accredited press, plus support services for the broadcasters.
– Accredited personnel who do not have the IBC code on their accreditation – Unaccredited persons Application process A designated signatory (or signatories) must be established with each organisation (Rights Holding Broadcaster, LOCOG, and so on). Only this signatory is authorised to request IBC guest passes from OBS. The signatory/sponsor responsible for hosting a visit must submit a completed guest pass application form to the Guest Pass Office at least 24 hours before the requested date of access. These sponsors will be responsible for ensuring the legitimate nature of all requests and assuming responsibility for approving applications before they are submitted to the Guest Pass Office.
Facilities include help desks, press and photographer workrooms, private office space rented by press organisations and National Paralympic Committees and a suite of three media conference rooms. A range of support services is also provided by third-party suppliers and LOCOG within the MPC and the adjoining Media High Street. MPC Guest Pass Offices Guest passes are designed to meet the needs of short-term visitors who are not accredited to the Main Press Centre. However, they are not a substitute for accreditation. All guest passes are valid only on the day of issue, and only provide access to the MPC, Media High Street and Catering Village. Guest passes are non-transferable. There are two MPC Guest Pass Offices: – Near the Media Transport Mall adjacent to the MPC.
All sponsors will be required to meet their guests at the Guest Pass Office and accompany them within the IBC for the duration of the visit. If a guest pass holder is found unaccompanied within the IBC, they will be escorted back to the Guest Pass Office (unless the sponsor can be located immediately).

Free legal advice and representation for National Paralympic Committees (NPCs) and International Paralympic Sport Federations (IPSFs) LOCOG is working with the Law Society, the Bar Council and the British Association for Sport and Law (BASL) to establish an independent legal service of barristers’ chambers, law firms and individual lawyers for the period of the Paralympic Games. The service provides free independent legal advice and representation for NPCs and IPSFs, 24 hours a day, seven days a week. The service is made up of a specialist Sports Advocacy Section to represent athletes at hearings, particularly urgent hearings before the Board of Appeal of Classification and the Court of Arbitration; and a General Section to provide legal advice and assistance in the fields of sports, criminal, defamation and privacy, immigration, discrimination and personal injury law. The purpose of the service is to help to ensure the smooth running of the Games by providing an option for NPCs and IPSFs who do not have their own legal representatives in place in the UK and who may have difficulty in identifying representation at short notice.
The ParalympicSport.TV YouTube channel is available at youtube.com/ paralympicsporttv.
The Secretariat for the service is Sport Resolutions (UK). Should an NPC or IPSF need to contact the service, the Chef de Mission of the NPC or the President or Secretary General of the IPSF is asked to contact Sport Resolutions by one of the following methods:
ParalympicSport.TV will broadcast the London 2012 Paralympic Games with extensive live coverage of all sports and highlights, in addition to athlete features and profiles.

No smoking policy
The service is not intended to help to resolve domestic disputes between NPCs/IPSFs and their members unless that dispute arises in circumstances which may give rise to an IPC or CAS or Board of Appeal of Classification hearing or the issue concerns criminal allegations. In these particular cases, the member may contact Sport Resolutions directly.
Smoking will not be permitted in the following areas; – In or around standalone facilities or amenities – The field of play at all venues – Seating areas at all venues (including training venues) – Enclosed bars or restaurants at all venues – Anywhere in any of the Villages, including bedrooms and living quarters, except in designated smoking areas (see below) – Enclosed staff break areas

London and the Games
London, then and now
After the Games
Londinium, the first recorded settlement on the site of the modern-day city, was established almost 2,000 years ago by the Romans, shortly after their invasion in AD 43. The Romans were eventually replaced by the AngloSaxons, who called their settlement Lundenwic; and then, in the 11th century, by the Normans, led by William the Conqueror.
The Olympic and Paralympic Games has been the catalyst for the regeneration of one of the most underdeveloped areas of London into the Olympic Park. During the summer of 2012, the Park will welcome millions of visitors for 30 days of Olympic and Paralympic competition. After the Games, the Park will become a benchmark 21st-century urban environment, providing essential new housing, world-class sports facilities and other key amenities for the local community in east London.
London expanded dramatically beyond the old city walls in the 16th, 17th and 18th centuries, despite regular outbreaks of the plague and other major catastrophes such as the Great Fire of 1666. As the British Empire grew during the prosperous 19th century, so did London. Between 1801 and 1901, its population spiralled from around one million to 6.5 million. The first half of the 20th century brought two world wars and plenty of other challenges, but the Olympic Games of 1948 heralded a revival in the city’s fortunes. Today, London’s heritage is visible everywhere, from the few remaining parts of the Romans’ defensive wall to the world-famous dome of St Paul’s Cathedral. However, London is also a truly modern city, a product of today as much as of 2,000 years of history. It is one of the world’s most important financial and commercial centres, but it is also an artistic and cultural hub. It is a city in which 500-year-old landmarks sit next to brand new skyscrapers. And it is home to one of the most varied and vibrant populations of any world city, many of whom are now helping to write the current and future chapters of London’s epic history.
The UK’s Paralympic heritage In 1948, Dr Ludwig Guttmann organised a wheelchair archery competition at Stoke Mandeville hospital for World War II soldiers with spinal cord injuries. The competition took place on the same day as the Opening Ceremony of the London 1948 Olympic Games. It was no coincidence – Sir Ludwig dreamed of a ‘parallel Olympics’ for athletes with disabilities. Four years later, as more sports were added, athletes from Holland joined in and the international Paralympic Movement was born. The 1984 Paralympic Games were held in both Europe and North America. Amputee, cerebral palsy, visually impaired and les autres athletes all competed in New York, USA, while more than 1,100 athletes with spinal cord disabilities from 41 countries competed in 10 events at Stoke Mandeville. The UK has kept up its pioneering role in sport for athletes with disabilities and has since staged many international events. Our ambition is to build on this heritage and set new standards in both athlete and public experience of the Paralympic Games while also creating a step change in the perception of disability.

London 2012 Festival
The London 2012 Festival is a spectacular, 12-week celebration that will be the biggest festival Britain has ever seen. From 21 June to 9 September 2012, the best artists, musicians, writers, comedians, film-makers and other creative talents from around the globe will present new work to audiences across the country. With more than 10 million opportunities to see 1,000 performances and events, the London 2012 Festival aims to inspire the UK population and the country’s many visitors during the Olympic and Paralympic year. There is something for everyone: from food to fashion, street dance to digital, and pop to opera. The London 2012 Festival is the climax to the four-year Cultural Olympiad. One of the key aims throughout has been to produce an inclusive offering: the Unlimited programme is at the heart of this. Unlimited encourages collaborations and partnerships between disability arts organisations, disabled artists, producers and mainstream organisations, to celebrate the inspiration of the Olympic and Paralympic Games through the creation of original and exciting works. Twenty-nine Unlimited Commissions have been awarded, and many of these are being showcased at the Southbank Centre during the Paralympic Games.

London 2012 Paralympic image and identity
The design vision
Paralympic Emblem
Design plays a key role in delivering our vision for London 2012 through the built environment – venues, streets and towns, Live Sites, the Olympic Park – and through the way our brand is represented and applied. It provides the backbone for everything from operational planning through to the fabric of the uniforms. We want to ensure that design is delivered with a strong coherent message. To achieve this, we have focused attention on the benefits of design excellence through all disciplines at every level, from urban planning through to graphic design. All designers involved in London 2012 have been challenged to realise the power of the Games, and to deliver a truly memorable event through its visual image. Building on the principles of our brand, we have challenged preconceived ideas of Games architecture, redefined the design environment of the Games for future Host Cities, and created a new benchmark. It is through collaboration that these goals will be achieved, combining the best creative talents available and collective working between all organisations.
BMW
The London 2012 brand identity The brand and vision for the London 2012 Olympic Games and Paralympic Games was launched in London on 4 June 2007 by Sebastian Coe and a team of London 2012 ambassadors. For the first time for a Host City, the emblems for the 2012 Olympic Games and Paralympic Games are based on the same core shape, reflecting London’s commitment to hosting a truly integrated Paralympic Games.
Cadbury
The Paralympic Emblem is based on the number 2012 – the year of the Games – and includes the Paralympic Agitos, symbolising the Paralympic Games, and the word ‘London’ – the world’s most diverse city. Inside the Paralympic Emblem is a unique pattern inspired by the dynamic geometry of our brand identity. The bright contemporary nature of the Emblem will become memorable in people’s minds, introducing the world to the London 2012 Paralympic Games. This powerful, modern Emblem symbolises the dynamic Paralympic spirit and its inspirational ability to reach out to people all over the world.

The supporting identity Lines reach out from the shape and angles of the emblem to create a dynamic geometry that creates the basis of all elements of design. The lines represent our invitation to the world to join together and be inspired by the energy of the athletes competing at the London 2012 Games.
ic Games London 2012 Paralymp
The graphics were developed further by creating a background texture, introducing an overlaying burst of energy that gives a more three-dimensional quality. At the centre of the graphic is a burst of colour that is used to create a focus around the Paralympic Agitos. The graphic fades to white so the commercial partner brands can be incorporated within the field of play.
Official spectator guide
Dressing the sporting venues In celebration of the diversity of London and the Paralympic Games, each sport venue has its own colour theme. Two colours from the London 2012 palette that complement the colours of the field of play and the surrounding venue are used in combination to create a distinctive colour system.
The dynamic geometry is used as the base for artists, architects, sculptors and graphic designers. The four original colours of the London 2012 identity – pink, blue, green and orange – were inspired by the world of media, communications and fashion. The colours were carefully chosen to communicate the spirit of the London 2012 Games: energetic, spirited, bright and youthful.
These colour pairings have been adopted across all touchpoints for the sport – from the ticket to the field of play – which will enrich and deepen the spectators’ experience of the Games.
About the Look of the Games The Look of the Games will help define the way the world will see the London 2012 Games. We have created a memorable, meaningful and impactful Look for London 2012 that is consistent and cohesive across all touchpoints, from inside the venues to across the city and the rest of the UK. The identity has been embedded into the built environment to allow a single design story to be told, from the seating bowl designs to the patterning on the concourse.

Dressing the city and the UK Look is more than just dressing the sport venues – it is also about dressing the public realm and celebrating the Games. s e,
Cycling - Track Velodrome, Olympic Park
In what is a ‘Games first’, visitors to London and the UK will be welcomed with ‘one Look’. By working collectively with our stakeholders, the Greater London Authority (GLA) and the Government Olympic Executive (GOE), the street dressing will be from the same kit of parts. An online ‘Look Book’ allows all local authorities to purchase elements of Look, bringing a cohesive celebration of the Games to everyone.

About the sport pictograms The sport pictograms are at the heart of any Olympic and Paralympic Games visual language and we have set out to make our pictograms both functional and creative. There are two types of pictogram to represent the sports and disciplines of the London 2012 Games. Both are grounded in the original London 2012 grid system, but use images of previous gold medal performance poses to ensure the accuracy of the sport is presented in an energetic, dynamic way. The silhouette versions are used for high-visibility information about the sport such as signage and maps whereas the dynamic versions, being more abstract, are used in a more decorative way. There are 21 pictograms for the London 2012 Paralympic Games, representative of each sport and discipline. New to the London 2012 Paralympic Games are Paralympic-specific pictograms for Athletics, Cycling, Rowing, Sailing and Table Tennis. Paralympic sports
About the mascots Background to the mascots The mascots bring whimsy, humour and light-hearted fun to the Games experience. As ambassadors for the Games, they help provide a warm welcome to athletes and visitors from around the world and they spark excitement, laughter and cheers from children and fans on the field of play. The mascots help tell the unique story of each Games, reflecting the history, land and culture of the host region and country. The ideals of Olympism and the Paralympic Movement are brought to life by the mascots through the spirit of friendship, fair play and participation. The London 2012 Olympic and Paralympic mascots are an integral part of our Games image and identity. Our mascot story A great rainbow arcs onto the steelworks in Bolton, north-west England. From the final piece of the last support beam for the London 2012 Olympic Stadium, two drops of steel fall. Leaving the factory after his last day of work, Grandpa George picks up the pieces of steel and takes them home. During the night, unable to sleep, Grandpa George tiptoes into his shed and begins to shape the steel into toys for his grandchildren. The children love their new friends and start to play. Suddenly, rainbow light pours through the window and the figures shiver to life. They hold up their arms as the rainbow light flashes and dances everywhere! The mascots are born. The children are amazed as the mascots rush to imitate them and begin to learn about the Olympic and Paralympic Games from posters on the wall and books around the room. Inspired by what they have discovered, they name them Wenlock and Mandeville. But all too soon, the mascots have to go. Jumping on the rainbow in different directions, they begin their adventures all around the UK, meeting lots of people and making friends before arriving at the Games in 2012. Where will they go? Who will they meet? What will they discover? Join them on their adventures at london2012.com/mascots. Background to Mandeville – the London 2012 Paralympic mascot Mandeville is the London 2012 Paralympic mascot. The name Mandeville is inspired by Stoke Mandeville, the Buckinghamshire town where the Paralympic Movement was founded. Mandeville’s head shape is like a helmet – aerodynamic and featuring the three Paralympic colours – while the personal timer on Mandeville’s wrist helps keep track of performance.

About the Motto ‘Inspire a generation.’ Our motto is a rallying cry. During the summer of 2012 the athletes of the world, each with an inspiring story, will come to London for the first time in a generation. Connecting every single one of them is a mission to succeed – to push beyond their personal best and be the best they can be at the highest level.
The Paralympic Torch Relay The aim for the Paralympic Torch Relay is to create an event with a distinctive and unique voice that encourages the UK to engage with and be inspired by the Paralympic Values. There will be four Flames, each lit by the energy of human endeavour. The Emblem represents this; four different coloured flames coming together to form one, using a blue Paralympic logo to symbolise the hottest part of the Flame.
We invite them to the UK not just to compete; we invite them to do something equally important – inspire. We ask that they come to London and inspire a generation: compete, do their best and tell their personal stories of determination, excellence, perseverance and strength of character. We encourage them to become role models and new heroes for young people everywhere.
Games Makers The Games Maker lock-up uses the core London 2012 Emblems inside a shape created from the flexible grid. The lock-up of the London 2012 Emblems and the McDonalds logo reinforces the true partnership between LOCOG and the Presenting Partner. The bursts of energy to one side are there to highlight the energy the Games Makers bring, while the colours, a combination of two London 2012 colours, pink and blue, have been used across all Games Maker collateral from training materials to websites, ensuring a consistent and recognisable identity.
On behalf of the youth of today, the athletes of tomorrow and the Olympians and Paralympians of the future: come to London and inspire a generation. Sub-brands A unique and defining element of the London 2012 brand is the flexible grid system that allows differentiation between the diverse strands of London 2012, from the Cultural Olympiad to the Torch Relay, while maintaining an element of coherence that brings London 2012 together. London 2012 Festival The London 2012 Festival Emblem uses the London 2012 silhouette from the Olympic and Paralympic Emblems and carries the words ‘London’ and ‘Festival’ in the London 2012 typeface. The London 2012 Festival shard device is a distinctive element derived from the flexible grid that uses the London 2012 pink to provide a clear and distinctive standout among other arts and culture communications.

London 2012 Paralympic Torch Relay
The London 2012 Paralympic Torch Relay will have a distinctive concept created especially for it. Building on the traditional Torch Relay format, the London 2012 Paralympic Torch Relay programme will begin on Friday 24 August 2012 with the first flame lighting event to be held in London. Over the Bank Holiday weekend, Greater Belfast, Edinburgh and Cardiff will each host a flame lighting moment and an evening Paralympic Flame Festival. Each of the four flames will be lit by the energy of physical human endeavour, with each place creating its unique method of lighting. These flames will journey to Stoke Mandeville where they will be united at a special ceremony to create the London 2012 Paralympic Flame. A selection of inspirational teams of Torchbearers will carry the Paralympic Flame overnight on its journey to the Opening Ceremony on 29 August where it will light the cauldron, signalling the beginning of the London 2012 Paralympic Games. The Relay will give the UK the chance to be inspired by the Paralympic Values, celebrating the spirit of human endeavour.
