Final Batch of Tickets for London’s New Year’s Eve Fireworks Goes on Sale Monday
The clock is ticking! The last chance to snag tickets for London’s iconic New Year’s Eve fireworks display is coming up fast.
At midday on this coming Monday, (2nd December), the final batch of tickets will go live on Ticketmaster, the only authorised seller. So if you fancy ringing in 2025 with Big Ben’s chimes and a jaw-dropping display by the London Eye, this is your moment.
Why You Don’t Want to Miss This Spectacle
Every year, London’s fireworks show is a world-famous extravaganza, blending pyrotechnics, lighting, and music into a 12-minute display of pure joy. With the London Eye celebrating its 25th anniversary, this year’s display promises to be extra special. Not only is it a feast for the eyes, but it’s also a global showcase for London, as millions tune in on the BBC to watch the capital light up.
Last year, the BBC’s coverage of the event was the most-watched TV programme in the UK, proving this isn’t just a fireworks show—it’s the New Year’s event.
Ticket Details: What You Need to Know
Tickets range from £20 to £50, depending on the viewing area. You can see more information about the viewing areas on our previous article all about London's 2024 New Years Eve celebration.
If you’re a Londoner, you’re in luck—you’ll get a £15 discount per ticket, meaning you can enjoy the show for as little as £20. Tickets are only available through Ticketmaster, and organisers are stressing the importance of buying through the official channel to avoid fake tickets.
Last year, counterfeit tickets caused chaos at the gates, leading to delays, disappointed revellers, and some genuine ticketholders being turned away. Learn from their misfortune: if it’s not from Ticketmaster, it’s not worth the risk.
Why the Price Increase?
While ticket prices for some areas have doubled, there’s good reason behind it. City Hall has ramped up spending on security, crowd management, and stewarding, ensuring a safer and more organised experience for everyone. Last year’s hiccups have been addressed, with improved ticketing systems, more robust security, and better signage.
Supporting a Good Cause
Buying a ticket doesn’t just guarantee you a prime spot for the display—it also offers an opportunity to give back. Ticket buyers can choose to donate to TAP London, a charity supporting homeless Londoners. What better way to start the year than by spreading a bit of kindness?
What If You Miss Out?
If you’re not lucky enough to secure a ticket, all is not lost. You can still catch the display live on BBC One or soak up the festive spirit in one of London’s many pubs, restaurants, or bars. We've also collated the best spots to watch London's New Year's Eve fireworks for free.
A Word from the Mayor
Mayor of London Sadiq Khan has urged people to act quickly:
“I’m proud that every year the eyes of the world look to London to see how we welcome in the new year. Our spectacular display of fireworks, lighting, and music entertains and delights Londoners and people from across the globe. Our tickets are always in high demand, so I urge anyone wanting to attend this fantastic evening to buy them as soon as possible from our only authorised outlet.”
The Final Countdown
With demand sky-high and tickets in limited supply, Monday is your last chance to secure a spot at the capital’s biggest night of the year. So set a reminder, get your Ticketmaster account ready, and be quick off the mark when the clock strikes midday.
Because let’s be honest: there’s no better way to start 2025 than with fireworks, friends, and London’s iconic skyline lighting up the night.
