ANOTHER AWESOME YEAR AT THE O2
Milestone: The O2 Smashes Records with Over Two Million Tickets Sold
The O2 has racked up another record year, reporting over two million tickets sold to shows at the venue. As we look back on our long-standing partnership with the world’s most popular music and entertainment destination, it is clear that the London O2 Arena seating capacity, which accommodates up to 20,000 people, remains the gold standard for global touring.
A Landmark Year for Entertainment
The London venue holds up to 20,000 people and last year was host to hundreds of shows, with outstanding performances from the likes of Michael McIntyre, Britney Spears and Sam Smith.
The venue’s former VP & General Manager John Langford, who was recently promoted to AEG Europe COO, said:
“We’ve seen a huge amount of activity at The O2 this year, with the opening of Icon Outlet, Oxygen Freejumping and not to mention the record breaking content that’s kept over two million entertained. I’d like to thank each and every person at The O2 and I’m confident that Steve Sayer will oversee another incredible year, when he takes over as VP & General Manager in 2019.”
The Power of the O2 Angels
We’re so incredibly proud to support O2 at their biggest entertainment venue! Last year saw us supply O2 with over 4,000 O2 Angels for event days alone!
Managing the London O2 Arena seating capacity requires a massive logistical effort. Our "Angels" were on the ground to ensure that every one of those two million fans experienced the very best in guest services, from the moment they entered the peninsula to the final encore.
WHAT DOES 2019 HAVE IN STORE?
We’re super excited for another busy year at The O2 Arena! We’re looking forward to supporting shows like:
- Blue Planet II – Live In Concert
- Shawn Mendes
- Rita Ora
- Ariana Grande
