Not sure which ticket to choose?
Compare standard timed-entry tickets for the best price against multi-attraction bundles if you plan to visit SEA LIFE or the London Dungeon nearby. Booking online in advance is essential to secure the £29 base rate, as walk-up prices in May 2026 can reach £39 or sell out entirely during peak sunset hours.

4 things to know before your visit
- Entrance: Boarding is located at the base of the wheel on the South Bank, but the ticket office is inside the adjacent County Hall building; with a mobile ticket, bypass the office and head straight to the boarding area. Join the queue at your designated time: Entrance A is for Standard tickets, and Entrance F is for Fast Track. Note that while Fast Track skips the main boarding line, all visitors must clear a mandatory security and bag check. Arrive 30–45 minutes before your slot to ensure you pass security in time. For combo tours (e.g., Westminster Abbey), the meeting point is usually off-site at the Abbey Shop, followed by a guided walk to the Eye.
- Price: Official standard tickets for May 2026 start at £29 for adults when booked online in advance, offering a significant saving over the £42–£45 walk-up price. Fast Track entry typically starts at £44. While partner rates generally align with official advance prices, multi-attraction bundles—such as the £59 London Eye & SEA LIFE combo—provide the best value for visitors planning to visit multiple Southbank attractions.
- Discounts: Adult pricing applies to visitors aged 16 and over, while children aged 2–15 qualify for a reduced rate. Infants under 2 enter free of charge, but a 'Free Infant' ticket must be added to your booking for capacity. Guests with disabilities pay the standard rate and are eligible for one complimentary carer ticket; this can now be reserved online during the booking process. Valid documentation (e.g., DLA/PIP letter, Blue Badge, or Access Card) may be requested upon arrival. Student and senior discounts are generally unavailable for standard tickets.
- Timing: Arrive early enough for security checks, ticket scanning and wayfinding.
FAQ
Frequently asked questions
Do I need to print my ticket or can I show it on my phone?
Digital tickets are standard; you can scan the barcode directly from your smartphone. Ensure your phone is charged and brightness is turned up for the scanners.
Does a Fast Track ticket skip the security line?
No, every visitor must pass through security. Fast Track only grants access to a dedicated, shorter queue for boarding after the security check.
What happens if I miss my scheduled time slot?
If you miss your slot, staff will attempt to accommodate you on the next available rotation, though this is not guaranteed and depends on capacity. Arriving 15 minutes early is highly recommended.
Are there any items I am not allowed to bring into the cabin?
Suitcases and backpacks over 55x40x20cm are prohibited. There are no on-site storage facilities; use 'left luggage' services at Waterloo Station.
Do infants and children need their own tickets even if they are free?
Yes, infants under 2 enter free but must have a 'Free Infant' ticket added to the booking to comply with cabin capacity limits.
Can I cancel or reschedule my London Eye ticket if it rains?
The Eye operates in rain and tickets are typically non-refundable. Check if your seller (e.g., GetYourGuide) offers a '24-hour cancellation' option for flexibility.
Is it cheaper to buy tickets at the ticket office on the day?
No, walk-up prices are significantly higher (up to £45). Booking online in advance saves up to 20% and secures your time slot.
