Constructed by the company in just under three years, the venue will be the centrepiece of the world’s largest sporting extravaganza, hosting the opening and closing ceremonies as well as athletics and field events.

The 80,000-seat stadium stands on a 40 acre site to the southern side of the Olympic Park in Stratford and was designed to be converted into a 25,000-seat venue at a later date.

The main accommodation for athletes, venue management, VIPs and media is provided in the west stand of the stadium.
