London Eye 25th Anniversary

London Eye turns 25 at New Year's Eve with fireworks!

25 Years of the World’s Most Iconic Ride

Join us this year, as we celebrate 25 years of the London Eye – the world’s most iconic ride. Built for the millennium and host of London’s biggest annual showcase on New Years Eve, the London Eye has celebration in the fabric of its DNA.

From first dates to ‘I do’, Hollywood royalty to actual royalty, our 32 pods have seen it all. Standing tall on the banks of the River Thames, we're one of the UKs most popular attractions and have taken over 85 million people on a journey into London’s skyline since 2000. This year, on Sunday 9th March, we celebrate our biggest milestone yet, a quarter of a century.

Our Story

“The ingredients of the London Eye are simple – a universal desire to see the Earth and cities from a great height, and the natural fascination with scale, daring structure and beauty.”

Julia Barfield, Mark Barfield Architects

Official Partner for Mayor of London's Fireworks

The London Eye kicked off its 25th anniversary celebrations as the official sponsor to the Mayor of London’s New Year’s Eve fireworks display!
