    I usually park at North Greenwich tube station.

    It's next door to the o2 car park and is much cheaper. It was £3 something last time I parked there.

    Only problem is that it fills up very quickly so it's advisable to arrive early to get a space.
  • Thank you for the quick reply, how early would you recommend? Doors open at 6.30pm.

    There is a thread on here about similar. £8 to pay weekdays after 11am at the tube station car park (before that season pass holders only).

    One last-resort option which *could* work depending on your timings would be to park in car parks 2 or 4 at the O2 if there is space - you can park there for four hours if you show a cineworld cinema ticket.
    So that would mean, buying one cineworld ticket for a showing on 13/04 online, trying to work out when Kylie comes on, arriving and parking just before that time, get to cinema and get ticket from the card machines at the base of the cinema entrance in the O2. After the gig, take your cinema ticket to the parking office (near the David Beckham football academy) and they will validate your parking ticket from car park 2/4 and you exit car park! Phew! Bit of a palaver but possible if you are desperate :D

    If you dont mind a brisk 10-15 minute walk, we always park for free at the Odeon Greenwich which is in a retail park just behind the Holiday Inn Express. Its really easy to walk from there.

    There is a massive car park (all free) with no signs or barriers giving you a time limit and we have never been questioned by anyone for parking there. We parked there this week for Peter Kay with no problems.

    We usually eat there too (there is a Nando's, Pizza Hut or a Chinese place) to save the massive waiting times for a table at a restaurant inside the O2.

    Hope this maybe helps :beer:

    There are 5 carparks there, go to resturant or cinema parking and you will only pay 4-6 pound. Will be plenty of space.
