The
coveted bid for hosting the Olympics 2012 was awarded to London. As
big investments poured into winning the bid, the hard part comes as the
whole of London led by its Prime Minister begins mega preparations for
the mega event. To understand the many concepts underlying destination
branding, this study was geared towards knowing how the Olympics 2012
will benefit London to become a sustained major tourist destination in
the world.
Learning’s from past Olympic and sports committees and
researches were gathered. Destination branding concepts were taken from
these studies and analysed how it will affect London or help London in
its preparations for the Olympics.
The research concluded that London will benefit from the Olympics as it
tries to maintain its status as a major tourist destination. There will
be obstacles in terms of security and much work is needed such as
preparations not only to London but preparation that the whole country
must undertake. Global destination branding will reap its long-term
rewards if London can maximize the Olympic Games as a successful
marketing vehicle for the city.
