TRAVELLING IN GENERAL
Your friend in managing London travel is the TFL (Transport for London) website http://www.tfl.gov.uk/ Use postcodes a lot, they are the most accurate way to get good travel information in London.
GETTING TO THE FESTIVAL
From Westminster station or Waterloo station, take the Jubilee Line (grey) Eastbound to North Greenwich station (20 minutes)
When you get out of the station, follow the signs for the O2 stadium, Ravensbourne College is the building with the lovely mozaic facade.
The Entrance is next to the entrance to the O2 stadium.
TAXIS
Taxis are reasonably expensive but friendly and very safe. Expect to pay up to £40 if you're wanting to go from the hotel to the Festival venue and up to £60-£100 if you want to come from an airport. Always tell a cabbie (cab driver) your destination before getting in. They will lower their windows when you hail them. Try to tip around 10%
