The Emirates Air Line connects the Greenwich Peninsula to Royal Docks and Royal Victoria DLR station. On 14 June it will be operating an extended service after the show finishes, enabling customers to connect with DLR services (towards central London, Stratford and Beckton) post event. London Underground tickets will be accepted for single and return journeys throughout the day, while Oyster and contactless users will be able to touch in as normal.
