June 27, 2012 By Rob Powell

River Thames at Greenwich

The O2 was five years old on Sunday. Since its relaunch in 2007, the dome has since gone on to become the world’s most popular entertainment venue, hosting the biggest names in music and becoming the setting for world class tennis, family entertainment, a film festival and even international polo. This summer it will become, temporarily, the North Greenwich Arena and be the venue for London 2012’s gymnastic events.

More is still yet to come at the O2, with a new hotel, serviced apartments and ballroom already approved and outline planning permission for a retail outlet mall up before the council’s Planning Board next month.
