London New Year's Eve fireworks
A Thames-side New Year escape with London to explore beyond the celebration. Pair a city-night experience with time around Westminster and the river, keeping the trip bigger than a single countdown.
Destination background
The New Year's Eve festivities in London, England, have regularly consisted of a midnight fireworks show. The focal point of the festivities are the South Bank, where the chimes of Big Ben at midnight signify the arrival of the new year, and pyrotechnics are launched from barges along the River Thames and from the London Eye observation wheel.
