Stadium Facts

Lee Valley VeloPark opened in 2011 as part of London’s Olympic regeneration programme, gaining global attention during the 2012 Games for its steep-banked track and record-breaking rides. The complex — velodrome, road circuit, mountain bike trails and BMX track — transitioned into a permanent public and elite-sport facility after the Olympics, managed by the Lee Valley Regional Park Authority, and continues to host international track cycling competitions and national championships alongside grassroots and community sessions.
