The O2 puts new acts on the big stage with a month of free gigs in December, where over 100 up & coming acts of all genres will play live over 20 nights.

Kicking off on December 3 and finishing on December 22, each night will see five bands take to a specially constructed stage in London Piazza at The O2. December Sessions at The O2 gives these new acts a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to play to a huge audience, at London's most famous entertainment venue.

There are some real treats in store, with some of the most hotly tipped acts of 2012 already confirmed to play. These include Nikki Garnett, hailing from Manchester and described as a Winehouse meets Lily Allen; The Sea and I – former Hoosiers frontman Irwin Sparkes’ new band; London based trio Belakiss, whose bassist Tatia is Ringo Starr’s granddaughter; Tree Top Flyers who recently won the Glastonbury Emerging Talent competition; and Son of Jack who are fresh from touring and recording with Chrissie Hynde.

As well as the live music, there will be plenty more on offer at December Sessions, including a photography exhibition by world famous live music photographer, Carsten Windhorst; a ‘Silent Gig’ – presented by Sennheiser; and the British Music Experience's moving museum on board one of London's iconic red double decker Routemaster buses.
