UPDATE – more tours added at weekends though September.
For the next few weeks, the O2 Arena in North Greenwich is hosting behind the scenes tours of the main stage.
The guided tours cover the backstage areas at The O2, including artist dressing rooms and sports locker rooms, and the VIP hospitality areas. Your tour guide will take you through an artist’s schedule and their pre-show routine.
There will be photo opportunities along the tour.
The tours run every half hour daily until the end of August and cost £25 per person. Tickets can be booked here – note when selecting a date, click on “show more times” to see all the options for that date.
Visitors are required to wear face coverings at all times during the tour.
This website has been running now for over a decade, and while advertising revenue contributes to funding the website, it doesn't cover the costs. That is why I have set up a facility with DonorBox where you can contribute to the costs of the website and time invested in writing and research for the news articles.
It's very similar to the way The Guardian and many smaller websites are now seeking to generate an income in the face of rising costs and declining advertising.
Whether it's a one-off donation or a regular giver, every additional support goes a long way to covering the running costs of this website, and keeping you regularly topped up doses of Londony news and facts.

There are magical places to see in England, but the O2 Dome is not one of them, and paying £25 for a backstage tour is usury.
