The last tube on the Jubilee line from North Greenwich is at 00:16 and the last Thames Clippers service is at 23:20.
However, we are looking into the demand for chartering a Thames Clippers service to run after 01:30, when the afterparty is due to end.
Depending on demand this service will cost between £6 and £8 per person. If you want this service to run please email clippers@studentradioawards.co.uk and put the number of tickets you would want in the subject header. If enough people are interested we will hire a boat.
