Only available for purchase via Ticketmaster, this next batch release of tickets went on sale on Monday, December 2 at midday.

Tickets cost between £20 and £50, depending on whether the ticket-holder is a Londoner and on the quality of viewing area selected.
The tickets cannot be resold or transferred.
City Hall said ticket prices have increased compared with previous years “to facilitate enhanced security and crowd management within and around the operational footprint, ensuring ticket holders feel able to celebrate safely”.
Individual purchasers can buy up to four tickets. For bigger families and groups, another adult in the family or group can buy up to the same number of tickets, according to City Hall.
However, groups hoping to watch the fireworks together have been advised to travel to the event together and ensure they have booked the same viewing area and entry gate - as moving between viewing areas on the night will not be allowed.
The ticket purchaser may also be asked to show photo ID to enter.
The post on the Ticketmaster reads: “Welcome 2025 in style at the Mayor of London's New Year's Eve Celebrations. It's set to be a night of unmissable moments, and it is one of the biggest celebrations of its kind in the world. To come to this event, you will need a ticket. These must be bought on this website. Tickets will not be available on the night.”
Westminster Bridge, the Golden Jubilee Footbridge and Waterloo Bridge will all be closed before and after the event, with City Hall warning ticket-purchasers to “consider carefully how you will travel to your preferred viewing area on the night”.The London mayor’s office adds: “Stations will be very busy when the event ends. Choose the side of the river you want to be on afterwards to get home more easily.
“Remember, central London will be very busy on New Year’s Eve. There will be many changes in how the city and transport runs on the night. Do plan your night and allow plenty of time to get in.”
