First up, the Jubilee line. It drops you directly at North Greenwich station, which is literally inside The O2. No walking, no confusing turns—just step off the train, follow the crowd, and boom, you’re at the arena doors. It’s a straight shot from central London, so if you’re near Bond Street, Westminster, or Canary Wharf, this is your golden ticket.
But here’s the catch—major events mean mega queues. You’ll be shuffling through a human snake for minutes that feel like hours. Pro tip: avoid the escalator if you’re in a hurry and take the stairs. Trust me, your calves will hate you, but your seat will be warm.
When the Jubilee line betrays you
Sometimes, there’s planned engineering work or a signal failure (because, of course). If that happens, don’t panic. You can take the DLR to Cutty Sark or Greenwich station, then hop on a bus—specifically the 188—which drops you right at The O2. It’s a bit of a faff, but it’s a scenic faff, especially if you glimpse the river.
Or, if you’re feeling adventurous, get off at Canary Wharf and walk through the Thames Clipper terminal. Yes, I’m about to talk about boats. Stay with me.
