First visit to O2 and wow what a fantastic place! Well run, well organised and clean. Felt safe as plenty of security but not over bearing. We saw the fabulous Diana Ross and she was totally amazing, looked stunning and her voice .. wow! We danced most of the night and you know when it’s been a great concert when you are still singing the songs 4 days after! Highly recommend the O2 as so many shops and restaurants etc, definitely worth a visit even if just for shopping.

Traveled here from mid Essex area for my first ever solo concert. Saw Sam fender and wonder horse. The show was brilliant and the staff were really helpful with showing me where my seat was. There’s various concessions throughout and even phone charging facilities.
Happy to say I’d 100% go again.
I would recommend that you try to leave your shows a little earlier as it gets incredibly busy while leaving both on tube train and in the building itself.

This is a great location for concerts, food, entertainment and shopping. The cable car is a must, such fun and great views. I would also recommend the walk over the 02, again a fabulous experience. There is just so much going on. One word of warning if you attend a concert or large event, allow extra time at the tube station, is does get very overcrowded quickly and is subject to closure at times for safety.

I visited the O2 to engage in a birthday activity but also spent some time wandering round the venue.
I enjoyed the atmosphere and wandering round the shops on offer. The shops are what you would find in a standard retail outlet.
I did not visit any of the food outlets but there are a vast number of options on offer.
It was clean and well ventilated. There was also good disabled access.

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!
