Off-street parking
The O2 Arena provides 4 off-street car parks across the Greenwich Peninsula. The postcode to use when locating the venue and these car parks is SE10 0DX. There are thousands of spaces available – but if you are set on parking here on event days, you should always book in advance to avoid disappointment.
The car parks operate 24 hours a day and offer event and non-event day tariffs. The hourly and daily fares at these car parks on any day, however, are still very high – even for London – and particularly so on event days.
JustPark offers a range of reservable off-street spaces nearby – in both council and commercially-run car parks, as well as at hotels, offices and on private driveways. You can browse these options and book a guaranteed space via our website or app.
