If you're impressed by the stadium , and want to see more inside, they now do stadium tours . Either self guided with a multimedia device or with a personal guide. Check their website for details.

Matt Waring

They have done a great job, fab place for children and plenty to see and do. But the park needs more food outlets & public toilets , everything in place at the moment is either full or hard to find!

Mark Lee

Queen Elizabeth Olympic Stadium :awesome for Athletics.Highly recommended.Enjoying the 2016 Anniversary Games today.Close to Stratford and Stratford International stations, a Premier Inn & Holiday Inn .

Currently known as The London Stadium and now home to West Ham United football club...come on you irons ⚒

Paul Mansfield

You visit the changing rooms and pitch side the dug out and the MLB dressing room and the lounges and interview flash rooms and walk down the tunnel .

Katie Poole

Don't worry about finding the place ok during the games - it's clearly signposted and event staff are available en route to point you in the right direction. (Or just follow the crowds!)

Del Noble

Probably the worst-designed modern stadium in existence. Really glad we all chipped in to make it happen.

Graeme Evans

Home of my favourite football team, I try and visit this place whenever I come to London

Mark Lee

Block 238 Row 57 Seat 381 very well located for Athletics (or Football ) though in centre of row rather than staircase.

Uslan

Paid for by tax paying Londoners, it's a nice place to watch track & field athletics…

Marc UKG

Soulless stadium basically next to a huge mall and offices . A huge part of the audience consists of tourists . Never experienced a stadium with 60k attendance being so quiet during a game. Sad.

LifeGate

This summer's Olympics games in London generated 28% less CO2 emissions than was forecast. The organizers had promised the 2012 edition would be "the greenest games ever". Mission: accomplished.

Vinnie P

Saw a tiny bit of Guardiola’s bald head. And the billions of blood oil money on the field , of course.

Ahmad Rizal Samad

Watch RWC2015 South Africa vs USA. Great stadium with electrifying atmosphere. Easy access too

James Rogers

Amazing Site! Make sure you go up the Orbit Tower to get a panoramic view around London and a look down into the stadium .

Carl Griffin

Excellent venue. Glad to see it being used after the Olympics finished.

Joseph Shambrook

Have a sit and think about the incredible things that happened here. You start to understand what's so special about it.

Alex

Great leg room and don't believe all the bad press about the views .

Honza Sobotka

I love theese types of buildings. Really nice place and landmark .

Saif Hussain

Great stadium that is brought to life on match day.

Not yet received legendary status but sure to have some special moments at the 2012 Olympics. You can take a tour there now so check it out if you can.

Claudia Papst

This is the best place to watch any game! Great people, great times!

Sebastiaan Verschuren

Incredible stadium filled with memories of the London Olympics in 2012.

Karen Skye

The seats are comfortable ! Lots of room.

Bob Jarvis

The food outside the stadium is still better than inside - though overpriced.

Dave Nattriss

If you like it then ya shoulda put a roof on it

London24

At the heart of this summer’s Olympic Games, the Olympic Stadium in Stratford, east London, will hold up to 80,000.

Martin Jonasson

Not a well designed arena which lose some of the atmosphere. But still quite impressive.

Ryee D

This place went wild as the music of Queen came on, followed by Lennon's Imagine. Now ... George Michael!!!

Sara Headworth

Did you know that the main beams of the Olympic Stadium are made with dis-used gas pipes?

James Burton

Eat before you arrive, I know it's a dress rehearsal, but it's super busy.

Paul Monaghan

Check out the container cafe near Pudding Mill station. Very laid back and cool place.

Bob Jarvis

Incredibly poor choice of beer on sale inside the stadium .

Chococha 7

Look out for the waterfall that flows letters. It's under the main exit bridge . Amazing!

Bob Jarvis

A lot could be better, the food sold by the outside vendors is way overpriced and leaving the stadium is far from slick, however it's not as bad inside as the media would have you believe.

Vic McGin

Sit outside in the park for as long as you can before the gig starts.

Rusdy HM

I should come to this stadium ....while visiting Adyt in Desember....Hope the UK Vissa will be issued for me n my wife...

Warren Knight

Watching Mo Farah take his second Gold and Bolt break a World Record, is one of the best experiences ever

For a rugby match ensure you're on the lower tier...

Amazing place

Mike Brosche

Not the greatest atmosphere for watching football (soccer ) as it is too big and away from pitch

James Geraghty

So proud :) #London2012 Danny Boyle's outstanding statement of intent #Olympics

You can't bring in any food or drink & be prepared to queue forever for anything!

Went on a Weds in December and had a fantastic afternoon. Blissfully free of crowds, amazing views out over the city and (despite being sceptical) the slide was a lot of fun too. Highly recommended. - Russell Barnes
