A limited number of early release tickets for the Mayor of London’s New Year’s Eve fireworks celebrations will be made available in June.
The early release of tickets will be available to the public from midday UK time on 19 June at £10 per person, which covers printing, infrastructure and other costs associated with ticketing. The main batch of tickets will be released in September.
The Mayor of London Boris Johnson said: “We are planning another stunning display to celebrate New Year and showcase London around the world. As in 2014 you will need a ticket, as part of our efforts to ensure the event is as safe as possible, but even if you do not have one there will be plenty of fantastic celebrations going on across the capital to help non-ticketholders bring in 2016 with a bang.”
Following the introduction of ticketing, on 31 December 2014 crowds were estimated to have been reduced significantly from 500,000 in 2013 to less than 350,000 – making the event more enjoyable for people and reducing the pressure placed on the emergency services.
