What's the Capacity of the O2

You might think the whole "O2" is the arena, but the dome itself is a separate beast. The circular building covers 365,000 square feet—that’s about six football fields, or 1.5 Costcos.

The dome is so tall—52 meters—that you could stack 12 double-decker buses on top of each other inside, and the top bus would still have headroom. Though I don’t recommend trying this; the buses get cranky.

And if you’re wondering about the oxygen in The O2 (get it? O2?), the building’s ventilation system moves 1.5 million cubic feet of air per minute. That’s enough to inflate a blimp every 30 seconds. So no, you won’t suffocate, even if the band plays a slow song.

The Final Verdict

So, what’s the capacity of The O2? 20,000 for a concert, 18,000 for sports, and about 35,000 if you include the folks eating overpriced pizza outside.

But the real capacity? It’s unlimited. Because once you’re inside, swaying to live music, sharing a dodgy dance move with a stranger, and pretending you know the lyrics, the space stops mattering. It’s just you, and 19,999 other people all having the same moment.

Just don’t ask about the parking.
