Commonwealth Games Comp

17 Sports, 11 Days of competition, 1 host city 
 
The 2014 Commonwealth Games, the 20th Games, will be held in Glasgow, over 11 days of competition from 23 July to 3 August 2014 .
 
It will be the largest multi-sport event ever held in Scotland, although the country previously hosted the Games in 1970 and 1986 in Edinburgh.
 
Many iconic Glasgow venues will be used from the Opening Ceremony at Celtic Park, Rugby 7s at Ibrox Stadium, boxing and gymnastics at the SECC Precinct to the athletics and Closing Ceremony at Hampden Park.
 
You have a chance of winning a Special Games Time prize in our Glasgow 2014 Competition.
 
All you need to do is answer the following question.
 
Where will the Opening Ceremony be held?
 
Then email your name, age, answer, school and contact details to Geraldine.george@education.glasgow.gov.uk by Wednesday 11th June.
