Default O2 Arena - Parking and congestion charge

Are there any other car parks near the O2 arena aside from their own ones? Just that £20 seems a little steep to me!

Also is the O2 arena within the congestion charge zone?

Thanks in advance

yeah u'll be fine then, i go that way to work at canary wharf.

u might get some traffic through the tunnel depending on the time of the day though.

only other thing u could do it park a bit further away and get train or bus to the o2.

Friday afternoon / evening, so I'm thinking it may be a little slow going.

Good point, I'm going with all girls though so I don't think they'd be up for that! £20 is such a rip off, I think a tenner is fair enough personally.

welcome to london. lol

to park where i park in canary wharf its 25 quid a day.

if u buy a season ticket that only drops to 20 quid a day.
so take a few days off and u may as well not bother.

make a deal with the girls. u drive the pay.

on friday anything after about 4 and u'll be in some traffic for the tunnel.
its not that bad though.

just watch out for all the speed cameras on the a12.
i go through about 8 on a 10 mile journey
