About 500 Olympians and Paralympians are to celebrate their Beijing success in London on October 16.

All athletes who went to Beijing have been invited, with 10 flat-bed trucks to carry them through the streets.

The parade is certain to include several of the leading contenders for this year’s SJA Sportsman, Sportswoman and Team of the Year – voting for which began earlier this week.


The Olympic parade will begin in front of the Mansion House in the City of London at 11am, following a route down Queen Victoria Street and past St Paul’s Cathedral.
