If you want the most direct route, the Jubilee line is your best friend. Just hop on a train heading east, and look for North Greenwich station. Seriously, you literally step off the platform and walk out into the entrance of the dome. It’s like the tube was built just for this one place.
The station is designed to handle crowds of 20,000 people leaving a show. You’ll never feel like a sardine in a can—well, maybe a very comfortable sardine. And the best part? The station is inside the O2’s footprint, so you’re sheltered from the rain.
The River Boat: The Chilled-Out Float
Feeling fancy? Forget the noise of the train. Take a Uber Boat by Thames Clippers. It’s not just transport; it’s a mini-cruise with a view. You’ll glide past the Cutty Sark, the skyscrapers of Canary Wharf, and the Emirates Air Line cable car.
Imagine arriving at a gig by boat, like you’re James Bond pulling up to a villain’s lair. Yes, please. The pier is called North Greenwich Pier, and it’s a short, pretty walk to the main entrance. It’s slower than the tube, but way more relaxing.

The Cable Car: The Flying Carpet
Okay, this one is a bit wild. You can actually arrive by flying over the River Thames in a cable car. The Emirates Air Line connects the O2 to the Royal Docks on the other side. It’s a five-minute ride that gives you a bird’s-eye view of the entire dome.
Is it the fastest way? No. Is it the most fun way? Absolutely. It feels like you’re in a sci-fi movie. Just remember: it closes earlier than most gigs end, so use it for the journey there, not the journey home.
