LONDON’S New Year’s Eve fireworks celebrations are to be ticketed for the first time. 

This year 100,000 tickets –at £10 each – will be available to the public.........

People from anywhere in the UK or overseas will be able to book up to four tickets from Friday, September 26 at 12 noon (UK time), by going to www.london.gov.uk/nye.

VisitBritain says no profit will be made from ticket sales, the revenue from which will be used to pay for administration costs and ensuring the event is safe.

The capital’s mayor, Boris Johnson, said: 'London's New Year's Eve fireworks are phenomenally popular, not just in the capital, but across the world and we want to ensure it continues to be a safe, enjoyable and sustainable event for the long-term. We are introducing ticketing to help manage crowd numbers and create a better experience on the night. For anyone without a ticket, the fireworks are again being shown live and in full on television, meaning you can watch it in glorious HD colour without missing a single second.’
