Opening Ceremony - have a night in
It's only 3 days to go until the start of the Olympic Games and
The London Organising Committee of the Olympic and Paralympic Games
(LOCOG) have put some ideas together to help you, your family and
friends celebrate London 2012 in style. Whether you are organising
an opening night party or arranging something for a particular
event they have a useful set of downloadable toolkits for everyone
to use to help plan their
celebrations here.
You could:
Ring bells
Start the
celebrations early by hosting an All The Bells event and join
thousands of others ringing bells at 8.12am as part of the London
2012 Festival.
Decorate and
celebrate
Get everyone involved - there’s plenty to
make for all ages. Attempt 100 metres of paper chains or theme your
party food. Blow up balloons and make them look like Olympic
Rings.
Get cooking
It’s time
to put your pinny on and get cooking with recipes to feed a family
or a sports team. Try Pendleton pizza for a tasty snack, or
cheese-straw oars for perfect finger food. And finish off with
‘dive right in’ punch – delicious.
Wear your glad
rags
Face paint an eye on your forehead and wear blue
or orange to mimic our mascots. Come in the colour of an Olympic
Ring. Or you could go for the ancient Olympic Games look and make a
toga.
Games for the Games
A
party’s not complete without games. Get into teams and play bingo,
or race Wenlock down your living room.
The Malvern Theatre is showing a number
of daytime and evening events on a big screen in the Forum Theatre
over the two weeks of the Olympic Games. Admission is FREE and
