2012伦敦奥运会开幕式时间的原因
2012年伦敦奥运会开幕式时间定为伦敦当地时间2012年7月27日20时12分，与北京奥运开幕式选在晚8点8分相似，伦敦奥运会的开幕式时间定为20点12分，寓意2012年。开幕式将在位于伦敦东区的斯特拉特福德奥林匹克体育场（伦敦碗）举行。
2012年伦敦奥运会开幕式表演共分三幕，开幕为绿色和愉悦，整个开幕式在悬挂于主会场内的巨钟的轰鸣声中徐徐揭开大幕，钟身上还镌刻上了《暴风雨》中的名句：“不必害怕，这岛上众声喧哗”。随后，奥林匹克体育场被变身为英式乡村风景，舞台呈现了草地、田野、河流等风景，同时还展现了家庭野餐，人们参与体育运动，农民耕作劳动的场景。此外，一些真正的农场动物，包括30只羊、12匹马、3头牛、2只山羊等都出现了。表演展现了英国的风采。
