Skip the hassle of traffic jams and last-minute parking scrambles.
Whether you’re catching a headline act or hosting a client at The O2, you deserve a seamless arrival.
This is your VIP guide to getting dropped off – chauffeur-style – right where it matters. Valet. VIP gates. Zero stress.
And as an official O2 partner, we can confidently say we’ve got this handled.

Key Facts - Chauffeur Drop-Off at The O₂
- Valet Parking: From £54 (pre-booked)
- VIP Drop-off: Meridian Gate via black gate on Millennium Way

Where’s the best chauffeur drop-off point at The O2?
There are two ways to arrive. Only one feels VIP.
- Car Park 1 is your free drop-off zone – accessible to all, clearly signposted off Millennium Way.
- Meridian Gate is the exclusive entrance used for valet parking and VIP guest arrivals. Tucked behind the black gate, it’s private, efficient, and designed for guests who expect more.
Chauffeur tip: The roads around The O2 are regularly hit with congestion – especially post-show. Plan your arrival 60 – 90 minutes before the event for a smooth glide-in.
How does valet parking at The O2 work?
If you’re planning on driving yourself there but still want VIP access, then you don’t want to be parking miles away from the doors. Valet parking at The O2 is strictly for arena events – and it’s worth every pound.
- Price: £54 if you pre-book, £65 on the day
- Access: via Meridian Gate (use the black gate on Millennium Way)
- Hours: Opens 2 hours before doors, car returned immediately post-show
- Booking: Closes 24 hours before the event
Your driver hands off the keys at the gate. You walk straight into the action. No circling for spaces. No queuing for exits.
Arrive. Hand off. Enjoy.
Is there parking if I’m not attending an event?
Yes, but it’s not VIP.
- Car Parks 2 – 4: Best for Outlet shopping, Cineworld and Up at The O2.
- Hourly rates: £7 (2h) to £52 (24h)
- Electric charge points: BP Pulse
- Retail offer: 4 hours free if you spend £35+ at the Outlet
Useful if you’re visiting during the day. But for evening shows? You want Car Park 1 or valet.
