dronkula Posted July 8, 2005 Report Share Posted July 8, 2005 Presumably, London now get's to call itself something else now? So is it an Olympic City or a Host City - or does it have to wait until after Beijing 2008 before it can start saying that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kenadian Posted July 8, 2005 Report Share Posted July 8, 2005 London is the host city. But the logo will change slightly and the words "Candidate City" will drop. Watch this evolution from the Vancouver Bid to Games... 2001- July 2003 July 2003- April 2005 April 2005 Ilanaaq. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kenadian Posted July 8, 2005 Report Share Posted July 8, 2005 In more detail, the evolution goes something like this... 1 - City announces its bid logo (name of city, year and graphic) 2 - City makes it to short list and officially is a Candidate (picks up "Candidate City" and the Olympic Rings) 3 - City wins rights to host Olympics (drops "Candidate City" from bid logo 4 - City unveils Games Emblem (unique graphic, city name, year and Olympic Rings) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
