Liminal spaces are the subject of an Internet aesthetic portraying empty or abandoned places that appear eerie, forlorn, and often surreal. Liminal spaces are commonly places of transition (pertaining to the concept of liminality) or of nostalgic appeal.

The challenge is, can you figure out where it is.

Not Wembley. Wembley is remarkably efficient in its space usage, so no big open cavities.

O2 Arena is the millennium dome. It was sold and renamed.

Yes, the arena is inside the fabric.

The whole thing was rebranded as the O2 Arena. You won't see millennium dome anywhere onsite.

Haven't seen the dome since it was built, it will always be The Millennium Dome in my heart.

Charming, like the resonance sway of The Millennium Bridge on opening week.

Same here. Apparently the media teams had the terminology change drummed into them quite hard. They really wanted the rebranding to stick.

I didn't have any jobs there over that period, so that's second hand info.
