Hotels for Myles Smith: My Mess, My Heart, My Life. Tour

An evening built around songs that trade on candour rather than spectacle, this tour finds an artist known for turning heartbreak and hometown frustration into singalong choruses. Expect a crowd that knows every lyric, phones up during the quiet verses and voices raised for the choruses. A Friday evening slot gives the night an easy shape: doors early, no rush after a working week, home at a reasonable hour.

The set leans on songs about mess and honesty in equal measure, so the mood shifts between hush and full-throated release rather than staying at one pitch all night.

Set beneath its unmistakable tented roof on the Greenwich Peninsula, The O2 is one of the world's busiest indoor arenas, drawing global music tours, comedy and sport year-round. The complex wraps the arena in cinemas, restaurants and riverside bars, with the Thames Path and cable car close by. The Jubilee line reaches North Greenwich in minutes, and riverboats offer a scenic alternative. Staying on the peninsula or across in Greenwich means an easy walk or short hop back after the encore.
