Hotels for RUSH: Fifty Something Tour

Five decades on from their earliest club dates, this tour marks a milestone anniversary for a band built on odd time signatures, side-long suites and a fiercely loyal following. Expect a set that reaches deep into a long catalogue, drawing as much from sprawling instrumental passages as from the radio-friendly tracks that crossed over.

Fans who travel for this one tend to know every change of pace by heart, and a Sunday evening slot gives the night an unusually calm, unhurried feel. Prog devotion runs deep here, and singing along is half the point.

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.
