Maybe you thought, “I’ll drive.” Bless your heart. You sweet summer child.
Driving to the O2 is like signing up for a traffic-based escape room you can’t win. Parking costs more than a small car. And leaving after a show? You’ll age ten years in gridlock.
Train is the move. Trust me. Your future self will thank you with a relaxing beverage while the train hums home.
One Weird Trick: Check for Engineering Works
Here’s the thing. The Jubilee line sometimes gets “planned maintenance” on weekends. That’s polite for “we’re replacing your train with a bus.”
Before you go, check the TfL website. Actually, check it twice. Then check it again when you’re halfway out the door. It’s annoying. But less annoying than being stranded in some concrete bus stop in Greenwich.
London Tube Station Near O2 Arena
When that happens, your next best option is London Bridge station. You can grab a Jubilee line train from there anyway—just with a slightly longer route. Or take a Thames Clipper river bus. Yes, a boat. It’s fun, it’s scenic, and you’ll feel like a main character in a rom-com.
