O2 Arena Reviews

Rated 4.5 out of 5 Star Rating

5 Star Rating Went to the WWE Smackdown and Raw double header on 28th and 31st of March. The final tour of John Cena. The atmosphere and promotion was great. The rings setup and area was literally brilliant. Excellent seats and great view. They somehow did all this and setup for the Usher Concerts in between but was flawless. Queues were not very long to get through and no issues with security. Drink and food normal overpriced fare but it's to be expected. I had worse at live England game or at the AJ fight. I would highly recommend the o2 and to go to a wrestling event there as the crowd participation was second to none and I lost my voice shouting after 20mins.. I would bother to drive there as parking is mad, you have to prebook of pay exorbitant amount. So be prepared for train queues when leaving they keep moving so not too bad. Excellent experience..

5 Star Rating Amazing Experience at The O2 Arena! I had an incredible time at the O2 Arena! From the moment I arrived, the staff were friendly, organized, and helpful, making the whole experience smooth and enjoyable. The venue itself is world-class—spacious, clean, and with fantastic acoustics. Whether you're attending a concert, comedy show, or sports event, the atmosphere is electric and the production quality is top-notch. There are also plenty of restaurants and bars around, so it's easy to grab a bite before or after the event. The layout makes it easy to navigate, and getting in and out of the arena was impressively efficient. All in all, the O2 Arena is one of the best venues I've ever been to. Highly recommend it for anyone looking for an unforgettable live entertainment experience!

5 Star Rating Firs visit to the o2 (millennium dome) past it a few times, though. Done the climb up and over the dome. Wonderful experience, with great guides. Then had wander inside, it's like a tardis, seemed much bigger than what we saw walking over it. A very social vibe inside with good ratio of eateries, bars and outlets. Lots to see outside too, with quotes engraved into the paving.

5 Star Rating The O2 is a fantastic venue with a great atmosphere and impressive facilities. It’s well-organized, and staff are usually helpful and efficient. The arena itself has good acoustics and visibility from most seats, making it a solid spot for concerts and events. There are plenty of food and drink options around, although prices can be a bit high (as expected for a big venue). Getting there is easy via the underground or bus, and the surrounding area has a nice vibe with restaurants, bars, and even a cinema. Overall, a great place to hang out with friends.

5 Star Rating Amazing day walking OVER the o2 for upthe02. Was a great sunny day. The team showing us the setup and the person looking after us on the walk were amazing. Very helpful and very patient considering had about 10 kids with us. The actual walk over the O2 was very good, not too hard and amazing views. A great way to see parts of London. With some good stories given about things we could see Well worth a few hours of your time. Great day Thank you O2 team
