Tickets go on sale for News Year's Eve Fireworks
100, 000 passes will be available
Tickets for London's famous New Year's Eve fireworks display go on sale today
Around 100, 000 tickets for the world renowned celebration will be made available in two stages with Londoners being charged less than those who live outside the Capital.
Tickets go on sale at midday and are expected to sell out
It is essential to buy a ticket to watch the fireworks in person from the specially designated viewing areas, as those without tickets will not be allowed to enter these areas. Only tickets bought from the authorised outlet Ticketmaster will be accepted. No official tickets will be sold by any other websites and those bought through any other means will not be valid.
This year ticket prices for Londoners remain £20 and £35 depending on the viewing area. Tickets for people who live outside the capital will be £40 and £55.
The Mayor of London, Sadiq Khan, said:
“There is no better way to welcome in the new year than by uniting with Londoners and visitors on the banks of the River Thames for our spectacular celebrations. Every year the eyes of the world watch as our capital’s unique fireworks, lighting and music display shows off the very best of London. It’s a fantastic advert for our city and a huge boost for our hospitality and tourism industries, as we build a better London for everyone. The only way to experience this unique show in person is by buying a ticket, so I urge anyone wanting to attend to do this as soon as possible.”
Rose Wangen-Jones, Managing Director at Visit London said:
“London has one of the biggest and best New Year’s Eve celebrations: we see visitors travel from around the world to be a part of the annual tradition. In addition to the fireworks, visitors and Londoners can make the most of the big night by booking one of many parties, river cruises, shows and dinners across the capital. The festivities continue through to the next day with the London New Year’s Day parade - making it an excellent time to visit London as the city comes together in celebration.”
Robin Goodchild, Senior General Manager of the London Eye, said:
“London’s New Year’s Eve fireworks are celebrated worldwide, and we’re proud that the London Eye once again takes centre stage as the icon of the city’s skyline. Working with the Mayor of London, we’re honoured that this spectacular event unites Londoners and captivates global audiences. As we conclude the Eye’s 25th anniversary, a spectacular display of colour, light, and storytelling will illuminate the Thames—welcoming 2026 from the heart of this incredible city.”
