South Bank London

South Bank New Year's Eve parties to book now!


The capital’s biggest night of the year, New Year's Eve sees tens of thousands of ticket-holders gather by the river to watch the incredible fireworks display in front of South Bank’s lastminute.com London Eye. 

To ensure the safety of the event, London's world-famous fireworks show is ticketed. If you don't manage to get tickets to watch the fireworks, or you just don't want to be out in the cold all night queueing for food trucks, you can still join in the fun by booking for one of the many New Year's Eve parties happening at South Bank's restaurants.

Note that you must book for these parties well in advance – especially as access to the South Bank is restricted to only ticket holders on New Year's Eve.

Pay very close attention to the exact instructions supplied by the venue with your booking about how to access their space on the night. There will be numerous checkpoints and restricted access areas around the South Bank that you may need to navigate to access the venue on the day and the large crowds could cause you delays.

Here's a look at the many different NYE parties to book for this year in South Bank.
