After years being dubbed The White Elephant, Telefonica bought what was essentially a permanent tent and transformed it into one of the UK's best indoor event venue. The O2 is a great place with lots of food outlets, shops, lounges, breakout spaces and experiences. It is by far the best large-scale music venue for acoustics and the sound quality for live shows absolutely annihilates anything you hear at stadiums and sports venues. It is always a joy to see a band play here and admittedly, when my favourite artists opt for London Stadium, Wembley, etc. I am somewhat disappointed. The only minor gripes with the O2 are that prices are exorbitant and some staff are utter jobsworths. Other than that, it stands as a giant in the live music event scene.
