Visitors to The O2 will soon be able to see the famous domed structure from an entirely new angle - from 53-metre high Up At The O2 suspended from The O2's distinctive yellow masts. Open on 21st June 2012, the guided walk over one of London's most successful music and entertainment venues will give visitors amazing views over the great domed building designed by Rogers Stirk Harbour + Partners and beyond. During the Olympics, The O2 will host the basketball, wheelchair basketball, artistic gymnastic and trampoline events so visitors can enjoy the sport and a skywalk. To access the walkway, visitors will be kitted up in special climbing suits, shoes and safety harnesses. Then it's up via a short set of stairs, or lift, to the base of the tent ready to start the climb. From here, climbers will be guided, in groups of 30, to a central observation platform via a 190 metre long fabric walkway suspended between The O2's masts. If you love heights - and you're looking for a physical challenge - then this will be right up your street! Tickets can be purchased at www.UpatTheO2.co.uk or on the day at The O2.
