The last tickets for London’s flagship New Year’s Eve fireworks celebrations go on sale at noon on Monday 24 November.
This will be the final chance for Londoners and visitors to secure their place at the world-renowned spectacular, with tickets only available through official ticket partner Ticketmaster.
Set along the banks of the River Thames, the event is one of the biggest nights of the year as around 100,000 ticketholders unite for a spectacular display of fireworks, lights and music.
The show will celebrate the key moments of 2025 and look forward to the year ahead through thousands of fireworks, hundreds of lights and an amazing soundtrack.
It will be broadcast live to millions worldwide, showcasing London on the global stage and delivering a significant boost to the economy. Ticketholders generate around £14m in additional revenue for London’s businesses and economy each year.
Tickets must be purchased in advance and are only valid if bought through the authorised outlet Ticketmaster. No official tickets will be sold by any other websites and those bought through any other means will not be valid.
Ticket prices for Londoners are £20 and £35 depending on the viewing area, while tickets for people who live outside the capital will be £40 and £55.
As in previous years, attendees have the opportunity to donate to TAP London, a charity dedicated to supporting Londoners experiencing homelessness.
Those who miss out on tickets are encouraged to celebrate the new year at one of the capital’s wide range of bars, restaurants, pubs and clubs across the capital, or watch live on BBC One in what is one of the most watched TV moments of the year.
The Mayor of London, Sadiq Khan, said: “Our New Year’s Eve firework display is renowned across the world and the best way to experience it is by joining Londoners and visitors along the banks of the River Thames. Every year our show gets better and better as we light up the night sky with a spectacular display of colour and sound. This is your final chance to get tickets, so I encourage everyone who wants to be part of this special evening to book through our official outlet. The event is an unforgettable experience and provides an incredible advert for our capital and a huge boost for our hospitality and tourism industries, as we build a better London for everyone.”
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.”
