Travelling to The O2 from Kent: Concert & Event Journey Guide
Enjoy the event with your travel plans in place. Sort your arrival, group transport and return collection before the big night.
Concert tickets booked? Give the journey the same attention. Planning how you will get to The O2 and home again helps your group keep the practical details together before the event.
The O2 is in North Greenwich, London. Use its official travel and transport guide for current access information and maps, then discuss your taxi arrangements with United Cars.
Check which venue and event you are attending
Share the event name, date and the exact venue on your ticket confirmation. Check the event page for doors and performance information; a doors-open time is not always the same as the start of the main performance.
Before travelling, review The O2’s current bag policy and entry information. If you have accessibility requirements, check the venue’s arrangements directly and tell our team what travel support you need.
Leave room in the plan for arrival and entry
Decide whether you want to arrive for a meal or go straight to the event. Tell us your preferred arrival time, not just the time printed on the ticket, so we can discuss an appropriate collection time from Kent.
Allow time for the journey, reaching the correct entrance and the venue’s entry procedures. Event-day traffic and access arrangements can affect the approach to the venue. Follow the current official instructions and the drop-off arrangements agreed for your booking.
Choose a vehicle for your whole group
If friends or family are travelling together, confirm the passenger count and whether everyone is using one pickup address. Tell us about any additional stops and bags. Our team can discuss suitable car, MPV or minibus options and availability.
One shared plan helps: nominate a main contact, keep the booking details in your group chat and make sure everyone knows the return meeting arrangements.
Agree how you will meet after the event
Arrange your return time and meeting point with our team before you travel. Check the expected event timings, but allow for leaving the venue and reaching the agreed collection area. Do not assume the pickup point will be directly outside your exit.
Keep your phone charged and available. If the event finishes at a different time or you cannot find the meeting point, contact our team. Ask what waiting or parking charges could apply to your booking and confirm the full quote in advance.
