Summary of request
Your request
Who is responsible for this, please. Can we follow the French and have a laser show which will still cost but avoids smoke and noise pollution took. I know tourists pay £25 last year. The year before it cost £2M how much as covered by the price of the tickets?
Our response
The London New Year’s Eve celebrations are paid for and organised by the Greater London Authority, for the Mayor of London. The budget available for the event was £3.85m, with additional costs being supported by ticket revenue of £1.75m. The GLA does not hold the final costs for the 2023 event – these are still being reconciled.
