It is about 12.9 miles from Romford to The O2 Arena, and we price it as one fixed fare from £45. Expect 30 min on a quiet run, or 50 min if you are travelling through the rush. Drivers come in via A102 Blackwall Tunnel Approach, then Millennium Way, reaching The O2 Arena from the north-east. The price is agreed when you book, so it does not move with the meter, the traffic or the time of night.
A pre-booked taxi from Romford to The O2 Arena costs from £45 for up to 4 passengers and takes about 30 min off-peak, covering roughly 12.9 miles. The price is fixed before you travel and includes tolls, waiting time and luggage.

From Romford (RM1, RM2, RM3, RM7) the natural line out is the A12 and the A127, joining A102 Blackwall Tunnel Approach, then Millennium Way for the last part of the journey. The whole thing runs to about 12.9 miles. Traffic is the variable, not the distance: 30 min off-peak becomes 50 min when the network is busy, which is why we build the timing around your arrival rather than the clock.
Private hire pickup is next to Car Park 3, past the Tesco on Millennium Way - not the main Entrance A forecourt, which is coach and black-cab only. The Blackwall and Silvertown tunnels are free between 22:00 and 06:00, so a return leg after a late finish costs the same as the outbound.
Address: Peninsula Square, Greenwich Peninsula, SE10 0DX.
Any address in Romford works, along with the wider RM1, RM2, RM3, RM7 area of East London. House, hotel lobby or office reception, whichever suits you on the day.
We cover the whole of Romford - RM1, RM2, RM3, RM7 - including the residential streets where a passing cab is a matter of luck rather than timing.
Doors are usually an hour before the gig starts. Allowing 50 min for the drive from Romford plus that hour is the timing that works on a busy night.
Book both legs together and the driver is in position before the gig ends. Getting out of The O2 Arena is the part that costs people an hour; this is how you skip it. The return to Romford is the same £45.
A saloon is from £45, an estate from £55, a 6-seat MPV from £65 and an 8-seat minibus from £85. The price is fixed when you book and covers the whole journey.
