An official Team GB Olympic fanzone which We Are Placemaking produced in collaboration with Mayfair London has been widely celebrated within its first week of opening.

The fanzone, which is one of just nine official Team GB fanzones in the UK, offers a free space for visitors to watch the games from the comfort of a deck chair, and in the glorious green surroundings of Grosvenor Square.

Guests can enjoy a wide selection of F&B offerings from local vendors including Crepe Stop, Masa Food, Sen Noods, Pizza Di Napoli, Fabulous Coffee Co, Souvlaki By and Buttercup Bus Vintage Campers.

Mini-Olympics with wheelbarrow and Space Hopper races, face painting, arts and crafts and jewellery making workshops are some of the family-friendly activities on offer for guests throughout the day.

Within the first week of games, thousands of visitors of all ages have already enjoyed all the fun and games that the fanzone has to offer. On Saturday August 3, Team GB hockey gold medallist Shona McCallin MBE will also be signing autographs and posing for photos. 

BBC, Metro, Country and Townhouse, PA News, Express and Star, Time Out, Secret London, The Evening Standard, MyLondon and City A.M are amongst publications that have already celebrated the fanzone in Grosvenor Square.
