An active afternoon at Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park without a stadium ticket

A walk around the Olympic Park and a paid sports-venue session are different plans. Choose which you want before turning a straightforward outdoor afternoon into a complicated booking exercise.

Other ways

Begin with the park map

Use the park’s official visitor information to select a short outdoor route and a sensible entrance.

A famous venue can be a useful landmark without becoming an obligation to enter every building.

Add one activity, not several

If swimming, cycling or another venue session is the aim, check that operator’s booking and entry requirements separately.

Public outdoor space does not mean every attraction or sporting facility is free or available without a reservation.

Leave room for conditions

Check current works, event notices and the weather before setting off.

This is a flexible planning suggestion, not confirmation that all paths are open today or that a particular sporting session has spaces.
