2012 Olympics: The Cultural Olympiad
The Cultural Olympiad was launched with the Open Weekend on
26-28 September 2008 and runs until the end of the Games in 2012.
It will showcase the country's arts and culture to the rest of the

The aim is to deliver a programme of events, festivals, projects
and programmes that will provide one of the most visual and
tangible examples of the opportunities London 2012 has to offer -
engaging new audiences, not just in the build up to 2012, but also
sustaining interest and participation in the long term.
