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.
Here's a look at the many different NYE parties to book for this year in South Bank.
Accessing South Bank's restaurants on New Year's Eve
** Note that you must book for all of these parties well in advance! Access to the South Bank is tightly controlled on New Year's Eve and restricted only to valid ticket holders. Pay very close attention to the exact instructions supplied by the venue with your booking about how to access their space on the night and what arrangements you might need to make in the days before the event to ensure you can access the venue on New Year's Eve.
There will be numerous checkpoints and restricted access areas around the South Bank that you will need to navigate to access the venue on the day. Large crowds and the stringent security checkpoints could cause you delays.
