Top Tips to Beat The Queues
- Our busier times are weekends and school holidays (Christmas, Easter, Summer and UK Half Term holidays). If possible, try to avoid these days and/or visit us at a quieter time - we recommend booking a morning slot.
- The time stated on your ticket is the time you enter the queue-line. There may be an additional wait from here, which in our peak times can be up to 45 minutes long. Please plan your visit accordingly.
- Travel light! Please check our prohibited items here to clear our security checks as fast as possible.
- If you have any accessibility requirements, click here to find out about ride access provisions and wheelchair time slots.
- Of course, the best way to reduce queuing time at the London Eye is through upgrading to fast-track entry! With a dedicated entrance and priority access, you'll be in the sky in no time. Consider upgrading your visit with Fast Track tickets available here.
