Nine Inch Nails at London’s O2 Arena: start time, tickets, potential setlist and what you need to know

Nine Inch Nails are one of the planet’s top live acts. Trent Reznor has been unmissable on stage for over 30 years, and since Atticus Ross joined the project in the 2010s NIN have become even more of a spectacle.

Needless to say, when your town is getting a Nine Inch Nails show you do not want to miss it. And that’s exactly what is arriving in London this week. Reznor and Ross are at Greenwich’s O2 Arena as part of their current Peel It Back tour, which marks their first live shows since 2022. 

Heading down to southwest London to see Nine Inch Nails live? Here’s everything you need to know, from timings and potential setlists to any remaining ticket availability.
