The closest station is North Greenwich. It’s on the Jubilee line. That’s it. No walking, no confusing bus. Just step off the train and you’re basically inside the dome. The escalator ride alone feels like a futuristic spaceship launch.
From the platform to the arena doors? About three minutes. I timed it. You can hear the crowd before you even see the stage. It’s the most efficient, most satisfying arrival in London.
Fun Fact: The Hidden Bus Depot
Here’s the quirky bit. North Greenwich station is built underneath a giant bus depot. Yes, buses park on the roof. You can’t see them from the platform, but they’re up there, chilling.
Also, the station was built for the Millennium Dome project. The dome itself was supposed to be a temporary exhibition. Nineteen million visitors later, it’s still standing. The station? It’s the permanent hero of the story.
