We've had a great response for the ballot for the Visa London 2012 party, happening on The Mall on 24 August to celebrate the moment the Olympic Flag is handed over from Beijing to London and we start welcoming the world for our Games.

We will, of course, be celebrating in style, with top acts, Olympians and lots of special guests. It will all be broadcast live on the BBC One and Radio 2.

If you haven't applied yet do it now! The ballot closes this Wednesday, 2 July, at noon.
