THIS IS A PAST EVENT
9th July 2011
Lloyds TSB’s London 2012 Olympic Torch Tour is an interactive roadshow bringing the excitement of the Olympic Torch Relay to local communities across the UK.
Visitors can have their photo taken with the prototype London 2012 Olympic Torch, learn about the history of the Relay, meet their Lloyds TSB Local Hero, play interactive games, and nominate someone who’s made a difference in their local community to carry the Olympic Flame in the Olympic Torch Relay in 2012.
The Olympic Torch Relay will be a 70-day celebration, starting in the UK on 19 May 2012, travelling thousands of miles and bringing the London 2012 Games to hundreds of communities across the UK. In 2012, the Relay is scheduled to visit NOTTINGHAM on 28 JUNE 2012. 95% of the UK population will be within a one-hour journey of the Flame and 8,000 people will have the once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to carry the Flame, and with it a message of peace, hope, respect and friendship.
The Lloyds TSB London 2012 Olympic Torch Tour will be at OLD MARKET SQUARE in NOTTINGHAM from 10.00 am to 4.00 pm on SATURDAY 9 JULY 2011.
Online nominations can be made until 12 September 2011 and selected Torchbearers will be announced from January 2012.
