What's on at The O2

Black Sabbath
Categories, Music
- Critics' choice
The mighty masters of morbid rock have returned (again). Sabbath bear the responsibility for some of the most monstrous riffs ever created, and there aren't many contemporary rock bands who are totally free of their influence, so a huge tour and a new...

Depeche Mode
Categories, Pop and rock

Dave Gahan, Martin Gore and Andy Fletcher draw on their immense back catalogue and plug their new album, 'Delta Machine' (which is surprisingly brilliant – read our review here). Expect a night of darkly melodramatic and sleazy, stadium-scaled electro...

Disney on Ice: Dare to Dream
West End, theatre & performing arts (kids)
Dancing on Ice meets Eurodisney, and does it's best to borrow the general magic of Christmas, in the latest Swarovski-encrusted Disney on Ice extravaganza. This time characters otherwise entirely unrenowned for their skating prowess will include favourites...
Fleetwood Mac
Classic rock
- Critics' choice
Despite denials and solo projects, the Mac are to return to these shores – still lacking Christine McVie, but otherwise with the classic line-up miraculously intact – for their first UK shows since they sold out Wembley in 2009. It'll be a greatest-hits...

Jessie J
Categories, Pop and rock
- Critics' choice
Motormouth 23-year-old electro/'urban' Essex popstrel JJ offers plenty of lascivious, Rihanna-styled US R&B/soul-pop with attitude. NB: this show has been rescheduled from Mar 10; original tickets remain valid.

JLS
Categories, Pop and rock
So, the JLS story has (almost) come to an end. As boy band break-ups go it's hardly on the scale of Take That, but with four top-three albums and five Number One hits since 'The X Factor' spat them out in 2008, they're still kind of a big deal. What Marvin...

Stand-up, Solo shows, Big-name talent
- Rating: 4/5
‘In 2011, my career took off, and I became famous,’ says Micky Flanagan, not beating around the bush at the start of his new solo show. But it’s not the paparazzi, or signing autographs, or having to keep his trademark locks so bouncy, that frustrates...
