Olympic Gold Medal Dates For London 2012

Today the London Olympic timetable and ticket prices are released. Olympic tickets actually go on sale on March 15th so now is the time to study the timetable and chose your event days, with the possibility of your country getting the gold medal top priority.

Most people, even non sports fans watch some gymnastics or the 100metres final during the Olympics.For those of us who enjoy sport we are all of a sudden excited about cycling, rowing, sailing, archery,swimming and diving! These are the events where Team GB excel, where we might see the Union Jack raised, accompanied by the National Anthem.

The 2012 Olympics kick off on Saturday 28th July and for Team GB the chances of a gold begin immediately with Mark Cavendish on the mens road cycling event, followed by Nicole Cooke on the Sunday 29th, hoping to repeat the most exciting sprint finish in Beijing.

If you don't fancy the brief glimpse of a Team GB bike passing you, Rebecca Addlington starts her Olympics on Sunday also in the Aquatics Centre. She will be trying for a second gold in the 400m freestyle.

Monday 30th July Tom Daley starts diving, Tuesday 31st the equestrian events start but my choice would be to go to watch David Florence in the canoeing at the Lea Valley White Water Centre in North London

For a weekend of athletics with the best chance of Gold, book to see Jessica Ennis final day of Heptathalon on Saturday 4th August followed by one of the free events in central London on Sunday 5th August- Paula Radcliffe's final attempt at Olympic Marathon Gold.

The Palm Hotel has already taking bookings for the Olympics.We are anticipating a busy few weeks. If your are organising your trip from abroad,the low cost airlines fly into Luton and Stansted, north of London, and airport coaches coming into London pass through North West London with a stop at nearby Golders Green Bus Station!

By road, there is easy access to the Palm Hotel from all major routes from the north (M1, the North Circular, A41, A406) without having to pay the congestion charge. A hotel with free parking should always be a top choice.
