February 24, 201610 yr Ok, so my plan for the upcoming hours: - charge my phone (doing it right now) - have lunch somewhere - maybe nap a bit in the hotel lobby - check in and head to the O2 directly after that (should be there by 3, i hope) Maybe the first person from the forum to be at the O2 can give us an update q'ing wise.

February 24, 201610 yr Hey guys, I was going to go up early to queue too-- but I was told there is strictly no entry/pre-queuing for the show at Indigo until 8pm via their Twitter team (due to The Brits traffic/people/crowds)...
February 24, 201610 yr Hey guys, I was going to go up early to queue too-- but I was told there is strictly no entry/pre-queuing for the show at Indigo until 8pm via their Twitter team (due to The Brits traffic/people/crowds)... Means what? I'm sure a lot of people will arrive much earlier than 8 pm. Will they send you away or make you wait somewhere else? EDIT: Posted by indigo at the O2 twitter "Please be aware that due to the high cap of people entering for the @brits there will be no early queue system for @Coldplay tomorrow" Sent via Tapatalk
February 24, 201610 yr Hmmmmm, crap. This may make me change my plans. No point in getting there early only to be turned away. Grrrrr. SFK
February 24, 201610 yr yep, its 8pm queue start, they'll move you on if you;re standing there. i'm going to get there at about 6 and go to a bar near the entrance. Or….. there is Deadpool showing at the cinema at the o2 which i might go and watch!!!
February 24, 201610 yr IndigO2 twitter says: Access to @indigoatTheO2 for @Coldplay tomorrow will not be granted until 9PM. Thank you! Also: No support act! Just #coldplay guys. Apologies if the website is not updated. :( SFK
February 24, 201610 yr Yeah that's my thoughts. I would really like to be on barrier but I reckon it's going to be a pain by the looks of it... I'm so confused what is going on. Thankfully I've found myself a hostel for the night as they say that the show is curfewed for 1:30am.

Or….. there is Deadpool showing at the cinema at the o2 which i might go and watch!!! So what if you are just standing there? You are not allowed to stand in a public place just because you want to stand there? Will they put you in handcuffs? [emoji28] Sent via Tapatalk

So if you need some company at the bar (I'm flying solo for the eve, hurrah, and therefore need to make more Coldplaying friends :p)

[emoji28] Sent via Tapatalk Last time I queued for entry at one of their shows (think it was Snow Patrol) and was told there was no queuing before a certain time they had barriers across and a lot of security who escorted you from the area every time... Are you heading in the general direction of Tower Hill/Aldgate after the show? Sent via Tapatalk Afraid not. I'm going back to city centre (hostel is at Russell Square because of the nightbus)
February 24, 201610 yr IndigO2 Twitter just responded to me: @nattatouillez Hi Natt, you can queue after 8 outside of the venue! Have fun So there we go. I'll definitely head up and prowl the area from 6-7ish and hopefully get a nice spot in the queue :D
February 24, 201610 yr On the upside, at least this all gives me time to take a serious nap. Sent via Tapatalk
February 24, 201610 yr It was confirmed just now by the venue on Twitter that the concert will start at 11pm at the very earliest and the end is due to after the tube shuts down
February 24, 201610 yr Sounds like a plan guys, I'm on my own too so will head to the bar across the way from the IndigO2 from around 6:30/7pm and check-in with the board to see if anyone's around for a drink. SFK

February 24, 201610 yr Yep, I'll be around. I'll pop in to see where everyone is and come and find people. I used to say look for the green and blue hair, but I'm having that all cut off in an hour so...!
February 24, 201610 yr If you tell me the exact location. Shall we say The Slug & Lettuce across from the IndigO2? http://www.theo2.co.uk/assets/doc/The-O2-venue-map-2015-North-Greenwich.pdf I'll be the Indian guy that looks like this: SFK

Seems like it's inside the O2, won't it be for people with brits tickets only? And i'll be wearing this hat: Sent via Tapatalk
February 24, 201610 yr Sounds good, do you think we will be able to get there? Seems like it's inside the O2, won't it be for people with brits tickets only? It's inside the O2 complex but outside any of the O2 venues. It's still a public access service so hopefully they shouldn't be able to stop us going for a drink! We can but try. SFK
February 24, 201610 yr we'll be fine to go to bars just not into the arena. We'll probably be able to hear The Brits for free haha
February 24, 201610 yr Right, just booked a cab to take me home, I gambled at 1:15am as they say latest cabs should be booked for 1:30am. I reckon the show will be over by 12:30-12:45am. SFK
