Buying guide

Not sure which ticket to choose?

Compare standard timed-entry tickets for the most direct access to the 72nd-floor skydeck, or choose a champagne package for a more relaxed, celebratory experience.

Quick picks

Choose by your situation

Before checkout

What is often not included

  • Large-bag restriction

    bags or backpacks over 55 x 38 x 20 cm may not be admitted, and the venue says it cannot store them. Plan to leave bulky luggage elsewhere before arrival.

  • Security preparation

    after ticket scanning, visitors pass through security and may be asked to remove jackets, bags, belts and pocket items; restricted items can include food, drinks, tripods, selfie sticks and prams.

  • Late arrival and weather check

    entry is permitted up to 15 minutes after the printed time, but later arrival may require rebooking. The View Guarantee must be claimed before leaving and may exclude selected third-party tickets; check the applicable terms.

Insider tips

Good to know before your visit

  • Entrance

    The entrance is on Joiner Street, near London Bridge station, which the official site describes as about a two-minute walk. There are 15 steps from Joiner Street to the booking hall, with a small lift and an automatic-door alternative. The official FAQ states that step-free access continues from the booking hall to Level 72. Security screening takes place after the entry gates; check your voucher for arrival instructions and current accessibility guidance.

  • Price

    The supplied seller rows show prices in both EUR and GBP across different products, including standard entry, champagne entry, city passes and bundles. Compare like-for-like inclusions, availability and cancellation terms, then verify the final checkout total. No official direct price is supplied in the current offer data, so avoid comparing these rows with an asserted official total.

  • Discounts

    Check the selected seller and official venue terms for age-based reductions and proof requirements. The official ticketing page states that children under 4 go free. Disabled guests who require assistance can obtain a free standard-entry carer ticket upon arrival with accepted proof of entitlement; this carer ticket cannot be pre-booked. Partner products may apply different eligibility or voucher procedures, so verify them before checkout.

  • 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 use my phone?

Use the ticket format stated on your voucher and allow time for the entry process. Timed or priority labels do not remove venue security screening; check the seller voucher for exact arrival instructions.

What happens if the weather is bad and I can't see anything?

The official View Guarantee applies to paid tickets: if weather prevents you from seeing at least three of five listed landmarks, terms may allow a complimentary revisit voucher. If booking through a partner, verify how this benefit is handled on the seller voucher.

Are there any closures or maintenance works in July 2026?

The official maintenance notice covered February through May 2026, so the May restrictions should not be presented as current for July visits. Check the current venue notice and your voucher for any partial closures or access changes.

What is the policy for large bags and luggage?

Security screening takes place after entry gates; visitors are asked to remove jackets, bags, belts and items from pockets for screening. Check the current venue guidance before bringing bulky luggage or restricted items.
