London

England, United Kingdom

London's large concert venues are spread across Greenwich, Wembley and Tottenham. Choose your route around the actual arena, not a central London landmark.

Overview

London's landmarks are not one concert zone

Tower Bridge, Westminster's clock tower and St Paul's Cathedral are useful visual anchors along different stretches of central London. They can form separate sightseeing walks, but none tells you which side of the city your concert is on. A central hotel may offer several transport choices while still requiring a substantial journey to the performance.

Greenwich, Wembley or Tottenham?

The O2 Arena is on the Greenwich Peninsula, OVO Arena Wembley is in Wembley, and Tottenham Hotspur Stadium is in north London. OVO Arena Wembley and Wembley Stadium are different venues; likewise, the historic centre of Greenwich is not the same stop as the O2's immediate surroundings. Check the full building name before arranging a meeting point. Stadium gate numbers and arena entrances should take precedence over a generic map pin.

Give the show its own travel window

Choose a Westminster walk, a City of London visit around St Paul's, or a Tower Bridge stop as your daytime focus. For an O2 concert, allow time for the onward journey to North Greenwich rather than assuming a riverside sightseeing route ends at the arena. For Wembley or Tottenham, finish central sightseeing early enough to collect bags and make the outward trip without relying on the last possible connection.

Getting there

Check Transport for London for the concert date, including planned engineering work and the return journey. North Greenwich is the Underground starting point for the O2. Wembley and Tottenham each have multiple stations with different walks, so follow the venue’s advice for your entrance.
