Do not drive. I am screaming this at you through the screen. The O2 Arena is surrounded by a concrete maze called the A102 and a Blackwall Tunnel that feels like a portal to another dimension—one where traffic has existed since the dinosaurs. Parking costs more than your concert ticket.
Getting to The O2 | The O2
If you absolutely must drive, know this: you will spend 45 minutes going 0.5 miles. You will see the same busker three times. And when you finally park, you’ll pay £30 to leave your car in a concrete cave that smells of regret and old chips. Just don’t.
Surprising fact: The O2 has a bonkers number of parking spaces—over 3,000. But they still fill up two hours before the headline act. This is proof that aliens have landed and are laughing at our traffic system.
