The Salvation Army
The 2015 International Congress will be held at The O2, a large entertainment district located on the Greenwich peninsula in East London. Housed within The O2 are numerous restaurants, cafes, piazzas, a cinema, exhibition space, live music venue as well as the showpiece venue, The O2 arena. With a volume equivalent to ten St Paul’s Cathedrals, as high as Nelson’s Column and with enough space for 72 tennis courts, The O2 is a truly expansive venue and will hold almost all of the events during the congress. With everything quite literally under one roof, you won’t need to go anywhere else...except for the march down The Mall!
