Over at the brand new Aquatics Centre, Britain's star diver Tom Daley is going to perform an official launch dive into the Olympic pool.
With this building, the organisers have attempted to give London a landmark to rival Beijing's Water Cube from 2008. It was designed by the prestigious architect Zaha Hadid and has a wave-like roof that is 160 metres long.
Today's special events are designed to arouse interest in the Olympics around the world and to encourage British fans too.
Many failed to get Olympic tickets in the recent sales process. According to a new survey for the BBC, 53% of Londoners think the process was "not fair".
But the same survey found support is growing for London 2012. Of the 1,000 people surveyed, 73% said they backed the Games - up from 69% in 2006.
Olympics minister Hugh Robertson said: "We are under budget and ahead of time and as a nation we have a reputation of really getting behind these big events."
