Hotels for RUSH: Fifty Something Tour

Fifty-something years into a career built on odd time signatures and long-form musicianship, this is a band whose audience grew up note by note with them. Expect a crowd that knows every tempo change before it arrives, and a set built for people who came to listen rather than just watch. A Thursday evening slot means an early start suits anyone with a commute to plan around. The occasion carries the weight of a milestone anniversary tour, likely to draw fans who have followed every previous run.

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.
