The iconic boy band Five are taking over London's O2 Arena for not one, but two highly anticipated nights this week, and fans are buzzing with excitement. If you're lucky enough to have tickets for Wednesday or Thursday's shows, here's everything you need to know to make your night unforgettable.
When to Arrive: Crucial Set Times
Planning is key to catching every moment of the action. The O2 Arena doors will swing open at 6:30 PM, giving you plenty of time to find your seat, grab a drink, and soak in the atmosphere.
The entertainment kicks off with the support act at 7:30 PM, so make sure you're settled in by then. The main event - Five themselves - are scheduled to hit the stage at 8:45 PM. The entire show is expected to wrap up by 10:30 PM, leaving you with enough time to get home (and probably hum their greatest hits all the way).
Getting to The O2: Your Transport Guide
Located in North Greenwich, The O2 Arena is one of London's best-connected venues. The most straightforward way to get there is via the Jubilee Line to North Greenwich station, which is just a stone's throw from the arena entrance.
If you're planning to drive, be aware that parking must be booked in advance through the official O2 Arena website. Given the expected crowds, public transport is highly recommended to avoid any last-minute stress.
What to Expect from the Show
Five - consisting of Ritchie Neville, Scott Robinson, and Sean Conlon - are celebrating their incredible comeback with these special London performances. Fans can look forward to a night packed with nostalgia, featuring all their classic hits that defined a generation of pop music.
From 'Keep On Movin'' to 'If Ya Gettin' Down', the setlist promises to be a non-stop party that will have everyone on their feet. This isn't just a concert; it's a trip down memory lane with one of the most energetic bands of the late 90s and early 2000s.
