Getting to O2 Academy Leicester
O2 Academy Leicester is the venue for Enter Shikari's Leicester show. The listed address is University Road, Leicester. Check the venue's entry times and bag policy before the day, and plan your route home in advance, as large concerts often finish when public transport is at its busiest.

Travelling to Leicester for the concert
A Thursday date usually means less competition for rooms than at the weekend, but getting home the same night after a weekday concert is hard, so staying over is the safer plan.
With a 19:00 start, the show will end late in the evening. Check the last train or bus back to where you are staying before you set off, and fly in the day before so a delayed flight does not cost you the concert.
