London New Year’s Eve Fireworks

Planning your visit

Wait for the new viewing-zone and ticket rules. Plan a late-night journey home and do not assume unrestricted riverside access.

Tickets: what to check

Use the official 2026 event page for the ticket-release announcement. A sightseeing cruise or party ticket does not give access to the official viewing zones. Confirm access and entry arrangements before booking other plans.
