London coach departures

[u05emk2]

Hi everyone. Last year for London coach package tickets the buses left from near the O2 arena. Does anyone know if they'll be leaving from the same place this year? I can't find any info on this in the email I got from seetickets. We're looking to book a hotel for the Tues night and want be be as close to the departure spot as possible (5am coach). Cheers!

They are always from the O2 Arena, but I can't find any definitive info either for this year.

They go from Victoria too - which is obviously closer.

I'm pretty sure only the National Express coaches go from Victoria?

They went from Embankment in 2011. I think they should let you know when you pay your balance.

National Express from Victoria and See Tickets from O2

Annoyingly

When you pay the balance you get an e ticket that confirms the location.

Does anyone know of coaches to the festival early on the Tuesday?

Yeah they went from Embankment until a few years ago but now all SEE coaches go from the o2. Always found that strange - it's the wrong side of London!

I think that's what adds an extra hour to the journey to be honest... I guess it's because they need a big empty coach park and the O2 has one?

Thanks Glastoworker, I am a worker!

Not for me. I live in Greenwich!

(But I'm driving anyway)

in a previous posting { may even have been a different site } there was some crews asking ' them ' for a early Tuesday coach so you would be wise to contact them as the more people who request this the more likely they will put one on - its a good price as well.

The key is to not head through central/West London at all

Lewisham's not too shabby.

Didn't go last year, didn't fancy it. Tempted to go this year for Manics and Elbow on the same day. Depends as I might be on Honeymoon at the time. The idea of a festival I can just stagger home from appeals greatly.

You?

For the record I spent my first years in London in the south east. It's still a ballache for getting to Glastonbury from! Coach drivers insist on taking the sightseeing route...
