Access guidance

• Talk to a member of staff at the arena entrance if you have a disability that means you can't queue. They'll sort out priority entry for you as soon as the doors open
• We have two platforms available online. The platforms are wheelchair accessible and have folding chairs for guests and assistants. They are primarily for wheelchair users but may also be suitable for guests with other access requirements. If you are unsure if they will be suitable, please give the team a call before booking.
• We have an accessible drop-off point for cars and coaches. It's about 150m from The O2's main entrance. And it's clearly signposted. If you are coming to an event in the main arena we also offer a wheelchair escort just call 0208 463 2211 once the event doors open (this is usually the time printed on your ticket) and we'll meet you with a wheelchair to take you to your seat.
• Accessible toilets are unisex. And they're available on all levels. They're near our wheelchair bays. We've also got a Changing Places fully accessible toilet by Block 106 on Level 1. Contact your nearest steward for access. Or visit the Level 1 information desk. These toilets are larger than a standard wheelchair accessible toilet and include a height-adjustable changing bench, a hoist and room for up to two PAs. If you need to use the Changing Places unit on a non-event day just ask at AEG reception and access can be organised.
• Assistance dogs are welcome in all of The O2 venues. Water bowls are available too. Just ask. For The O2 arena assistance dogs can stay in wheelchair bays. For other areas of the arena talk to the nearest information desk and they'll look after your dog for the whole event. Or for any period during the event.
• Customers can now book online by selecting how many tickets you wish to book. If you require a personal assistant, you must also book them a ticket - this will be refunded once your Access Card has been verified. Please note that we can only refund the personal assistant ticket before the event and only refund personal assistant tickets booked via the accessible online portal, other tickets booked outside of the platforms or through other agents can not be refunded.
