The O2, the world’s most popular live entertainment, leisure, and retail destination, has recorded its best-ever year for sales and footfall. These standout results have been strengthened by significant leasing across the Entertainment District and Outlet Shopping at The O2, as well as the growing importance of ‘social spending’, and reaffirm The O2’s position as a market-leading retail and leisure destination in the UK.

The O2 is celebrating a successful first half of 2024, posting a strong set of sales results and significant levels of leasing activity, as the recently reported concept of ‘social spending’ gathers momentum.

The O2 has announced that Clip ‘n Climb, the international climbing leisure operator, will be joining the destination later this summer, marking the brand’s second site in London.

Stärka, the innovative leisure real estate advisory business co-founded by Sammy Jones and David Bell, has won two high profile instructions from Sunderland City Council that further extend the business’s geographical reach and range of services.

The O2 has announced that its Entertainment District, which is owned and operated by Waterfront Limited Partnership, a joint venture between AEG Europe and Crosstree Real Estate Partners, is now fully leased, following a deal that will bring pan-Asian noodle bar, Chopstix, to the world’s most popular live entertainment, leisure, and retail destination. 

Waterfront Limited Partnership, a joint venture between AEG and Crosstree Real Estate Partners, who own and operate Icon Outlet and the Entertainment District at The O2, is celebrating the opening of the largest BOOM BATTLE BAR in the UK, alongside the signing of Trapdoor, a new restaurant and bar.
