The final should be held at the O2 arena
Its been the best year for ages, highest ratings ever etc and a higher level of talent. This year has had somewhat of an emphasis on the O2 arena with auditions and bootcamp both being held there. With this years "new look" show (with Cheryl and the new bootcamp format), I think it would be a good move to take the show back to the O2 arena and have a massive final in front of thousands of people. I think it would be much better than staying in the studio, would make this years final actually feel like an event (which its shaping up to be) and give the finalists a taste of what their life could be like. It works for American Idol, nothing saying it won't work for X Factor.

I think that would be REALLY good actually.
They could also have alot more people in the audience and a much grander feel to the whole event. Someone start a petition! |

They do it on Idol they do the final 24 up to the final at CBS Television City in Los Angeles perform for an audience of at least 3,400 then the final is moved to the Nokia Theatre which holds an audience of over 7,000
so they could easily do the Same on X Factor with the 02 |

It was reported in 2006 that ITV were planning this... Quote:
ITV is planning to turn next year's final of The X Factor into an even bigger television event at a high-profile venue, as the broadcaster confirmed it had signed a new three-year deal with the show's creator, Simon Cowell. The X Factor's producer, Fremantle Media, is understood to be considering plans to make next year's final more of a national spectacle, along the lines of the finals of Pop Idol talent shows - which the company also makes - in other countries. Quote:
The revamped final of The X Factor would also become more of a "red carpet" event with celebrities invited along, while the show's sponsor, Nokia, would be given scope to invite many more competition winners.
Quote:
It is thought venues such as the Millennium Dome, now renamed The O2, or Alexandra Palace could be used.
http://www.guardian.co.uk/media/2006...oadcasting.ITVITV filled The O2 for a New Years Party last year and that is not a time of huge ratings and high advertising for commercial broadcasters, so you would have thought it possible they could do it for the X Factor final - but I guess its more down to the production company. |

I think that would be good, although after all the performances they have given on the XF stage they would feel comfortable there and maybe give a better performance there.

I think something like this would be great. The X Factor final will be such a huge event this year and I personally believe it should be staged inside a big arena like the O2.

Yeah, I think it would be great to make it into more of an event. It has been rumoured every year, usually about the Royal Albert Hall, but never happened.

O2 wouldn't be possible this year anyways due to an Elton John concert on the same day as the final.
