Marshgate Lane, Stratford, London E15 1BN

The International Broadcast Centre/ Main Press Centre, located within the Olympic Park
played host to the majority of international broadcasters and journalists covering all
aspects of the 2012 Summer Olympics. The venue had massive catering capabilities
in order to accommodate the multitude of broadcasters and journalists with an estimated
50,000 dinners being served per day. Between the IBC and MPC a makeshift high street
was created with shops and facilities such as newsagents and banks. IBC/MBC had state
of the art facilities and technology to cater for the demands of hosting the Olympics last year.
There was 4 floors of work space allocated as office space for the media during the Games.
The press centre is multifunctional and accessible via public transport in order to facilitate the
vast number of guests that attended during the Olympic Games. It was used as office space
after the Games and it is hoped it will lead to substantial job creation within the area.

A Media Transport Mall providing a coach drop-off, car parking, accreditation and security
screening during the Games provided car parking spaces to tenants after the Olympics 2012,
alongside walking, cycling and public transport connections.
