SeatView UKBlock 405 at The O2 — view and verdict
Upper tier, close to the stage end. The upper tier is steep, which helps: you look down on the stage rather than over heads. The best-value route to a near-stage view.

The view from Block 405, in words
Angle. You sit in a corner, looking diagonally across the pitch: near-corner action feels very close, while the far corner takes the longest sightline in the ground.
Distance and height. You sit about 58 metres from the centre spot and roughly 22 metres up. That mid height is often the sweet spot — close enough for faces at the near end, high enough to read the game.
Tier. Upper tier. The upper tier is steep, which helps: you look down on the stage rather than over heads. The best-value route to a near-stage view.
Who Block 405 suits
Value gig seats with a real view. If that sounds like you — and the price is in line with its 4.0/5 rating rather than a premium block's — this is a sound buy.
Who should look elsewhere
Anyone paying a premium for it. This is a perfectly decent block at a fair price, but Block 107(4.8/5) is the upgrade to compare it against.
