With over 100,000 people
passing through its doors,
London’s most forward-thinking
club and entertainment venue
can be found only at The O2
THE FACT OF THE
matter
It’s precisely six months since
UNKLE and Carl Cox
headlined the opening
weekend of matter, the
purpose-built music venue
housed within the The O 2.
Half a year has flown by with
thousands of people passing
through the venue’s doors,
accolades from leading music
magazines, stunning nights
embodying a wide range of
musical genres and
experiences, and corporate
events that have helped
underline matter’s versatility
and suitability for
experiences beyond the reach
of other venues.
The matter project began 3
years ago when The O 2’s
owners AEG approached the
founders and directors of
Farringdon’s famously cutting
edge Fabric nightclub,
Cameron Leslie and Keith
Reilly, to create a bespoke,
credible, forward-thinking
entertainment venue.
With the venue continuing to
evolve, 2009 is set to be a key
year for one of the most
exciting venues in the capital.
