Bubbles were blown for the first time at the new London Stadium on Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park and champagne corks popped when West Ham Uniteds historic home Premier League curtain raiser kicked off last month.
And celebrations rang out in Wolverhampton too, as the match heralded potentially the final leg of steel fencing manufacturer Zaun's Olympic Stadium relay.
The Hammers played Bournemouth on Sunday 21 August at 4pm. The game was broadcast live on SkySports1 and was their first Premier League home outing since their move from The Boleyn Ground at Upton Park, where they played for the past 112 years.
That was made possible by the latest reincarnation of the London 2012 Olympic Stadium as a permanent home for West Ham and a national competition centre for British Athletics.
Balfour Beatty was appointed to transform the former Olympic Stadium into a year-round multi-use venue that will deliver a lasting sporting, cultural and community legacy in east London.
The transformation included installing the largest roof if its kind in the world, a community track, innovative retractable seating, spectator and hospitality facilities and external landscaping.
Zaun was the principal 2012 Olympics fencer and has returned to the Olympic Stadium on several occasions, first decommissioning after the 2012 Paralympics, then reconfiguring and removing security fencing for last autumn's Rugby World Cup.
Previously in July, the London Stadium played host to the Muller Anniversary Games and the likes of Golden Olympian Brits Mo Farah and Jessica Ennis-Hill and Jamaican sprint legend Usain Bolt in a final pre Olympics workout.
Bolt, who won triple Gold at London 2012 and Rio 2016 and holds the 100m and 200m world records, retained his record of never having lost in the stadium when he won the 200m in spite of a recent hamstring injury.
Zaun has supplied 5m-high security-rated Duo8 SR1 fencing together with gates and spectator railings for this latest revamp, installed by group company Binns Fencing.
