THE Olympic torch is to come to Suffolk ahead of the 2012 London games, we can reveal today.
The famed torch relay, the prelude to the London spectacular, is to visit dozens of towns and cities across the UK.
And the torch will be carried through Suffolk to Ipswich for an overnight stay on the way to the Olympic Stadium.
Prominent athletes from the region are expected to be torch bearers during its trip to Suffolk.
The full details of the torch’s route are expected tomorrow.
