Okay, but what if you’re coming from somewhere else? The Jubilee line is your best friend. It connects directly to major hubs like Stratford (for high-speed trains), Westminster (for Central London), and Waterloo (for overground trains). You can plan a whole night out around it.
Up at the O2 | Directions, Location, & Tips
Here’s a pro-tip from a local: after the show, don’t rush for the first train. Let the crowd thin. Instead, hang back in the arena’s plaza or grab a coffee at the nearby restaurant. In 15 minutes, you’ll walk straight onto an empty train car. Pure zen.
But Wait – What About Buses or Boats?
Oh, you’re fancy? You can also take a Thames Clipper river bus! It drops you at a special pier right next to the O2. It’s slower than the tube, but honestly? Sipping a drink while the London skyline blazes by beats any train ride. The station is still North Greenwich for the return trip, so you have options, my friend.
Buses? Sure, they exist. The 108, 422, and 472 all stop nearby. But let’s be real – the train is the fun way. It’s fast, reliable, and you get that glorious “we’re almost there!” rush when the lights flicker and the doors open.
