If you’re staying nearby, walking is a forgotten art. The O2 is surrounded by the Thames Path and Greenwich Park. It’s a lovely stroll if you’re not wearing platform heels that double as weapons. But here’s a surprising fact: the O2 was originally built as the “Millennium Dome” and was supposed to be a massive indoor theme park called The British Experience. It flopped so hard it became a joke. Now, it’s a concert colosseum where pop stars perform and fans fight for taxi apps.
So, my advice? Tube in, Tube out. Or take the river boat if you’re feeling fancy. But whatever you do, don’t drive. And for the love of all that is holy, pre-order your Uber forty-five minutes before the last song. The surge pricing will be higher than the cable car, but your feet will forgive you. Now go enjoy the show—and maybe skip the nachos.
