    beate we must have been near you we were row 11 block b also.
    the bendy woman was scary but wow. every act was fab. i will definetly buy a ticket and go again with my son. all money taken - some of it is given to an african charity. so please let your friends no what a great show it is to see. It was such a shame though to see empty seats. i saw quite a few unclaimed envelopes at the desk

    Plushchris - did you park for £6 at the O2 then as it says £20 on the site for event days?
  • I applied for tickets using the lion password on Jan 18th to the show on Feb 3rd, had the booking confirmed by email on Jan 23rd but no reference number, no seating numbers and no phone number to call them up and now it's Feb 1st and I've not had a tickets through the post. I can't find a number to call them up and they're not responding to their email address [EMAIL="discover@afrika-afrika.com"]discover@afrika-afrika.com[/EMAIL].
    Is this a scam? Or do I travel to London on Sunday in the hope the email was genuine and I do have 2 tickets set aside for me which I can pick up in the box office.
    Has anyone else just turned up with the email print off and picked their tickets up? Where have you been sitting? Or has a phone number I can use?

    If you've got tickets allocated, you will be sent an email saying so. If they haven't arrived by post, then turn up at the box office at the O2 on the day and your tickets will be waiting for you. That's what I did on Tuesday. As long as you have the email that says 'this is a confirmation of your booking. Take to the box office to receive your tickets' then you'll be ok (Or words to that effect)

    Yeah, just turned up and parked in the NCP (car park 2) got quite close to the station, tickets are £6 or £3 at weekends but if you were going at the weekend and wanted to make a day of it you could go to the cinema as well and get the car park refunded.

    I was pretty impressed with the O2, its nice in there, plenty of choice of places to eat, Zizzis got our pick because of the voucher. Felt like a little bit of a trek as you have to go into the dome and then walk almost all the way around it to get to the tented palaces.

    I wouldnt say there are any bad seats for the show itself unless you are in one of the corners then you may have a lighting post in the way.

    Drew a blank for the Saturday 2nd show at 8pm.

    If there is anybody holding tickets for that show that can't make it Mrs humph and I would love to hear from you.

    i tried it today - only tickets left apparently are for tonight, which is ok for me cos i live local to the o2.

    just waiting for email to say if i got any tickets or not!

    tip for those yet to go to see it. park in the big free car park at the odeon/b&q/sainsburys and either walk for 10mins or hop on a bus!

    I went Last night with the family.
    What a great show, the woman in the second half that could bend in to any shape what so ever, was just unbelievable.

    Parked in car park 4 (which was closest to the main entrance) £5 .
    We took some drinks and food with us, with no problems.
    We had Executive 2 seats in box 3 and 2 in block E row 2, it ended up that the box I was in with one of my children had no one else in it, but my wife and other child had such good seats in block E, they stayed put !! but there wasn't any problems if you wanted to move about to different seats.

    Thanks again to OP:D
