The band and the tour

The Strokes are a New York band whose recording career began in 2001.

The O2 connects this tour with Reality Awaits, following The New Abnormal, and identifies Going Shopping as a track from the newer project. These references offer a starting point for listening; they do not establish what will be performed on either London night.

Choose Tuesday or Wednesday

The venue’s dated performance list gives 6 and 7 October, with doors at 18:30 on both evenings.

Fat White Family and Alex Cameron are the named special guests. The general announcement text mentions the first night, but the booking list includes the second as well.

Use the selected performance’s ticket details to settle your date.

Make the support acts part of the decision

A multi-artist bill rewards a little preparation.

Listen separately to the guests and decide whether seeing them is essential to your visit. If it is, check the running order nearer the show and plan arrival around that verified information.

A doors time alone cannot tell you the sequence, set lengths or headline start.

Choose the right venue and ticket

The arena and indigo are different destinations within The O2 complex.

Check the venue printed on your ticket, the exact date and whether your booking is seated or standing. The official event page provides the ticket route; current prices depend on the chosen option.

Keep the full checkout total, including applicable fees, within your budget.

Plan arrival and the return separately

North Greenwich on the Jubilee line serves The O2.

Use TfL’s planner for your actual starting point, date and access needs rather than assuming a fixed journey time. Leave a buffer for reaching the correct entrance.

Choose any meal nearby before booking a restaurant; after-show bookings are difficult to plan without a confirmed finish.

Access, age guidance and practical limits

Open the venue’s accessibility information before buying if you need a wheelchair position, companion arrangements or assistance.

Confirm the specific performance’s age and admission conditions with the box office. The information checked here does not confirm a stage time or finish: use the final event-day running order for those decisions.

Keep the rest of the day flexible

Make the concert or show the fixed anchor.

A meal or short outdoor break can be optional, with an indoor alternative if the weather changes. Do not add a tight sightseeing schedule before a performance simply to fill the day.

Save this guide and the official ticket confirmation, then recheck venue updates before travelling.
