Tickets for the mayor of London’s spectacular New Year’s Eve fireworks display have gone on sale.

More than 100,000 people will gather on the banks of the famous River Thames to say farewell to 2023 and hello to 2024.

The mayor of London, Sadiq Khan, said: “Celebrating the new year in the heart of our capital while watching our spectacular fireworks display on the banks of the River Thames is the best ticket in town.

“Millions around the world will see our capital’s skyline illuminated by an extraordinary celebration of fireworks that will show London is for everyone.

“The only way to enjoy the fireworks in person is by buying a ticket in advance, so I urge anyone wanting to join us to book their ticket as early as possible so they can come and enjoy another wonderful show.”
