As well as offering an unforgettable experience, Up at The O2 provides an engaging school trip for Geography, STEM, Art & Design, History and Business Studies or as a brilliant team building activity for your students.

Accompany your trip with their free teaching resources – including education packs, teaching ideas and activities that link directly to the national curriculum.
