Good viewing area; great atmosphere; staff friendly.

Liked: Layout and ease to move around.
Disliked: Bar prices and long trek for cigarette area, not that I smoke.

A decent sized venue where connecting to the people on stage isn't so hard; best night of my life!

Liked: The bands were absolutely incredible and the small venue was a cool experience.
Disliked: Security really wasn't too bothered about the crowd since a ton of people passed out which I suppose was inevitable when it's so hot and you're constantly moving, but I caught a stick which was snatched from me and then was pushed down by a kid who was behind me the whole time, yet the security wasn't even phased. These things happen I guess.

Enjoyable evening.

Liked: Good viewing.
Disliked: None.

We went to see Frank Turner at the O2, and it was amazing! It was my first time there and was quite surprised. It is a little bit on the small side, but there were plenty of bars on each level and so getting a drink was easy and relatively painless! The staff were friendly, the cloak room very handy as the place turns into a sauna if it's jam packed with happy dancing folk! Can't really comment on cleanliness as it was dark. The bars were clean and the toilets in good condition. Drink prices were a little expensive but it's to be expected at places like this. Plenty of beers and spirits to choose from, all served in plastic cups so no glass fatalities likely to occur. It was easy to see the stage from the different levels - just make sure you don't get stuck behind a really tall person. :) Would visit again!

Liked: Plenty of bars; cloakroom service; friendly folk.

O2 priority queue for O2 customers meant we didn't have to join the large queue.

Liked: 02 priority queue
Disliked: Drinks seemed a bit expensive; a bit crowded.
