Millennium Dome Show London 2000

The Show at the Millennium Dome December 2000, now called the O2 Arena. The Millennium Dome Show was a multimedia, Cirque du Soleil-esque show created specifically for the year 2000. Peter Gabriel wrote the music, available in the album OVO.

The show detailed the story of a fictional set of beings, that transition from agriculture to industry, while segregating different races. Ovo is the offspring of both races, and is set to sail the sky after a catastrophe occurs.

My pleasure, glad you found it....I have more footage, but had only just bought my first DV camera so my video technique was not good, and video was forbidden too!!!! I will try and revamp the footage and edit off the black spaces...

@mystermoores I'll remember it for the rest of my life as I met and later married one of the managers from there (Skyscape and Central Arena - Area 7) and we had two children together, one named Millennium and the other named Dome. Haha...kidding. After meeting her, the Dome had an even bigger magnetic pull for me. Anyway, I just played this video and looked at my wife. She started smiling and looked over. A magical eleven years and two kids later and she still misses the place.

this was the best and still is the best show on earth, i saw this show like almost every day for a year, i know its bad but when i hear the music i can still see the show in my minds eye, and i was bad as i filmed the last show,

It's such a shame that not everyone went to the dome because i guarantee everyone who did will remember it for the rest of their lives. I was only six and i was so inspired by it that it fuelled my ambition to become a scientist which is still what i want to do now. It really was a one off, extraordinary space and they should have made it a permanent weekend attraction. The show was incredible too, i went five times in the end! such a shame it got slaughtered in the press for no good reason :(

We saw this show twice, there was so much going on all the time, and excellent use of the space. There was also a wheelchair dancer and it was amazing watching the way he performed and how the others lifted him onto the dias almost without missing a beat.
