Before you book

Three clear
decisions.

01

Choose one colour zone

Keep your whole group together. Tickets for different colours use different gates and routes.

02

Add an experience separately

Choose a cruise instead of zone viewing for the same midnight countdown, or book different options for different guests. Cruises have separate boarding instructions.

03

Review before payment

Check the quantities, total price and booking terms before Square securely processes your card.

London New Year’s Eve 2026: booking questions

When are London's New Year's Eve 2026 fireworks?

The event is on Thursday 31 December 2026, with the midnight countdown welcoming 2027. City Hall lists the event from 8pm on 31 December to 12:30am on 1 January. Follow the arrival window printed on your ticket.

Which London fireworks viewing zone should I choose?

Compare the perspective, price and approach route. The traditional layout places Blue and Red on the north bank, Pink on Waterloo Bridge, Green near the London Eye, White on Westminster Bridge and Orange in an accessible area on Albert Embankment. Final 2026 gates and routes must be checked against your ticket instructions.

Can I book London NYE tickets for a group or as a gift?

You can add multiple tickets to one Skycore booking and select the gift option at checkout. Choose the same colour zone for guests who want to stand together, and check any ticket transfer or identification conditions before buying for someone else.

Does a Thames cruise include fireworks zone entry?

No, unless the listing expressly says so. Cruises and boat parties have their own boarding arrangements and viewing positions. A zone ticket and a cruise at midnight are normally alternative ways to experience the same countdown, not consecutive activities.

How much are Skycore's London NYE 2026 tickets?

Blue, Pink and White Zone tickets are £165 per person. Red, Green and Orange accessible-zone tickets are £120 per person. Thames experiences range from £155 to £575. These are Skycore's selling prices, not the organiser's face values; review your booking total before payment.

Where do I get final entry and boarding instructions?

Use the instructions issued for your booked ticket or experience. Our entry guide describes the traditional layout, not a confirmed 2026 map. For booking support, email bookings@londonfireworksnye.co.uk with your Skycore reference.

Ask the Skycore bookings team about tickets, group plans or access requirements.
