O2 Shepherd's Bush Empire Concerts 2026

Over-priced disappointing bar drinks, but otherwise a nice venue. Space to sit and think without being cheek-by-jowl with everyone, and even managed to be civilized and located spare seats to sit comfortably in the bar! Sound was good, place in good repair, big stage, good views all over. Would go again, yes, happily.

Visited for a Caravan Palace concert in April. Fabulous venue and probably the most upbeat concert I've ever been to. Was also amazed at the O2 priority treatment we had.

One of the more iconic venues on London's concert map. Very well-connected, excellent sound system, and a great atmosphere. Perfect for concerts with powerful sounds like rock and metal. One thing to note is to arrive on time, as queues tend to form outside the club, given that usually only 2 entrances are open. Highly recommended!

I’ve gone to concerts here twice. The first time I was on the floor and it was nice to dance with people, although it’s hard to see over the crowd, and if you go to the bar or bathroom you risk losing your spot. Most recently I had tickets for the top level for much cheaper, and although you’re not in the fun chaos down below you can see really well from up top and sit down. It was also nice to be able to get to the bar and bathroom up top super quickly with no lines and be able to put your coat on your chair. Both vibes are fun!

Visited here for the first time in over 20 years. It hasn't changed much. Iconic venue. Queues were managed well and were allowed entry at the proposed time. No bags bigger than A4 were allowed but searchs were made quickly and allowed the queue to enter swiftly. In addition the Paul Weller concert was excellent.
