Advertising and outdoor trading near Olympic and Paralympic venues
The London 2012 Olympic and Paralympic Games take place in
2012. Find the actual dates
here. If you wish to trade or advertise close to the venues
during Games time you will need to make an application before 29
February 2012.
By the end of February, outdoor traders will need to have
secured permission to operate at Games-time in 27 special ‘Event
Zones’, usually stretching no more than 200 metres from stadiums
and sports facilities. Similarly, only
advertisers who are granted approval will be able to
advertise in these areas.
The London
2012 website provides information explaining the rules on
advertising and outdoor trading near Olympic and Paralympic
venues. It explains the process of
making an application and criteria for authorisation for
trading and advertising. Hard copy of application forms can be
downloaded from this website.
The Advertising and Trading Regulations bring in temporary
restrictions to advertising and trading in open public places,
within a few hundred metres around competition venues during the
London 2012 Olympic and Paralympic Games. You can obtain more
information from the
Detailed Provisions of the Advertising and Trading
Regulations.
