Olympic 2012 London

Olympic Games has hosted by London on two times, in 1908 and 1948. 2012 is the third occasion for London to host Olympics games. The intended 2012 Olympics will make London the first city to have hosted the modern Games of three Olympiads. The London City is the only city in the UK to have ever hosted the Olympics Games; the United States is the only country to have hosted Summer Olympics on more occasions than the UK. No any city in the UK has given the chance to host the Winter Olympic Games.

British participation in Olympic events, both as a competitor and as a host, is the responsibility of the British Olympic Association.
