Visit the UK's highest snow globe... on top of The O2

This is summit special.

Something magical is happening at The O2 this festive season. Or should that be ON The O2.

The UK's highest snow globe will perch on top of one of London's most iconic venues, with intrepid explorers invited to reach it via a fairy light-lined walkway.

From 22 November 2024 to 5 January 2025, anyone doing the famous Up at The O2 experience will have a very special present awaiting them at the summit — a walk-in snow globe packed with fairy-lit trees, glowing lampposts, and the aroma of freshly-baked cookies. What could make it even more festive? Oh yes, it's SNOWING INSIDE THE GLOBE!

Take Me To The Globe

White Christmas: guaranteed

While we can’t promise snow over London when you reach the top of The O2, the forecast inside the globe is 100% chance of snow. In fact, it’s a veritable winter wonderland in here: decorated trees, Narnia-esque lampposts, glowing lanterns, snuggly furniture, a free gingerbread cookie — even a bar where you can grab a festive fizz. Reckon this might end up as the backdrop for this year’s personalised Xmas card…

Those views!

While the snow globe’s in situ, visitors will enjoy an extended time of 25 minutes at the top of The O2. That means plenty of time to indulge in both the delights of the globe, and also the staggering 360-degree vistas of London — from 52 metres up. Drink in views of Canary Wharf, the Tower of London, the Shard, Greenwich, Tower Bridge and scores of other world-famous London landmarks. And prepare to switch that camera setting to panorama.

A festive get-together everyone will remember
