Have you hung onto your Olympic pride? Four years ago, Richmond showcased to the world our community pride and national spirit during the Vancouver 2010 Olympic Games. As the Sochi Olympic Games come closer, you can own a limited edition piece of our own Olympic history – authentic Olympic street banners once viewed by millions around the world.
Starting Monday, February 3, all Olympic banners that were once displayed throughout Richmond’s downtown core, gateways, O Zone celebration site and Richmond Olympic Oval precinct will be available for $10 per pair. Subject to availability, Olympic banners will be available for purchase through the 2014 Olympic and Paralympics Games with sales closing on Friday, March 14.
Banner designs are varied with some featuring the distinctive blue and green Vancouver 2010 Olympic Games design and others offering a more subtle word mark design in the 2010 Olympic Games colour palette (blue, green and white). Banners from the Paralympic Games are also available.
Olympic banner designs can be viewed at HERE. Banners can be ordered by phone 604-247-4453, by email at [email protected], or in person at 5599 Lynas Lane.
