    Plenty of room even at sold out events. Look for toilets downstairs and upstairs to avoid massive queues. There's another bar upstairs as well.

    nice venue, i would have liked if there was wooden floor instead of carpet (easier to dance to), if the arena had an angle so there was greater visibility to the stage, why were the back lights open?

    Been here 5+ times
    Go to Sink the Pink and spend your time marvelling at the costumes. Then wonder how they ever clear up the glitter.

    Heading home via Charring Cross or London Bridge? Grab the DLR to Bank/Monument station and switch to either the Northern or Circle/District to Embankment

    At a sell out concert, there's still plenty of room towards the back. Room is split in half though with steps at sides to get to the front.

    It feels like flying from an international airport. Search for drugs at the door is just stupidly long. Get ready to queue in the street for a long time

    Always used a licensed London taxi or pre-booked mini cab when leaving the troxy. The man in hi viz with a clipboard is illegal - you are not insurred to travel in his vehicles. Be safe

    It's overpriced and only two urinals and one cubicle in the toilets? The queues for the bar and toilets were unforgetable...
