Do I need to show ID?

Yes. Guests may be asked for a valid photo ID to verify age, especially under the Challenge 25 policy.

Can children join the Champagne Experience?

Yes, children can join. However, they will be served a non-alcoholic alternative drink. Children aged 15 and under must be accompanied by an adult aged 18 and above. Guests under 2 also require a ticket.

Can I buy an extra drink on board?

Typically, the Champagne Experience includes one glass per person. It is not possible to purchase additional drinks on board during this specific experience.

Is this experience good for couples?

It’s made for couples! The romantic views, hosted drinking session, and cozy atmosphere are a dream combo for anniversaries, proposals, or just a spontaneous date idea.

When is the best time to book the London Eye Champagne Experience?

Sunset slots are the most romantic and popular, so if you're eyeing those golden hour views, book well in advance. Weekdays and early mornings tend to be less crowded.

While it's best to arrive on time, if you are late, please speak to a member of staff at the VIP desk at the Ticket Office. They will do their best to accommodate you on the next available rotation, though this is subject to availability.

Is there a dress code?

There is no strict dress code, but smart casual attire is recommended, especially given the premium nature of the experience.

Can I bring my own food or drink?

No, outside food or drink, except bottled water, is not permitted on the London Eye.

What if I have vertigo or motion sickness?

The London Eye moves slowly and smoothly, so it’s typically fine even if you’re not a fan of heights. But if you’re unsure, maybe keep the fizz light and let your travel buddy enjoy it for you.

Is the Champagne Experience private?

No, the Champagne Experience is a shared experience. You will share a capsule with other guests who have purchased the Champagne Experience.

Can I book the entire capsule for a private celebration?

Not through the Champagne Experience, but you can book private capsules for special events directly through other premium experiences.

Things to know before booking your London Eye Champagne Experience tickets

Advance booking recommended: To secure your preferred date and time, especially during peak seasons, weekends, or for sunset slots, it is highly recommended to book your Champagne Experience tickets in advance.
What’s included: Your tickets include priority boarding, allowing you to skip the general queues with fast-track entry, a chilled glass of Moët & Chandon Impérial Brut or a non-alcoholic option for guests under 18 or those who prefer one, served by a dedicated host within your capsule, a full, uninterrupted 30-min rotation on the London Eye, and 360-degree views of London's most famous landmarks.
Age restrictions: To comply with Challenge 25, guests must be 18 years or older and may be asked to present valid photo ID. Guests under 18 will be served a non-alcoholic alternative. Children aged 15 and under must be accompanied by an adult aged 18+.
Shared experience: Please note that the Champagne Experience is a shared experience, meaning you will share a pod with other guests who have also booked this VIP experience.
Accessibility: The London Eye is fully wheelchair accessible. Each pod can accommodate up to two wheelchair users, with a maximum of eight on the entire Eye at any given time. A free carer ticket is available for disabled guests with valid documentation. Ramps are available, and the Eye can stop its rotation to facilitate boarding if needed.
Cancellation policy: Your tickets can be cancelled 24 hours before your experience begins, and you will get a full refund.
Security: All guests are subject to security checks before boarding, similar to airport procedures. Prohibited items include alcohol brought from outside, large bags/rucksacks, tripods, and sharp objects.

Couples: A romantic setting with unbeatable views—ideal for proposals or anniversaries.
Celebrators: Mark a birthday, graduation, or just life itself with a glass of Moët in the sky.
First-time visitors: Combine sightseeing with indulgence for a one-of-a-kind introduction to London.
Small groups: Share a toast with friends or colleagues in a refined, intimate setting.

Highlights of your experience

Toast a glass

Your ride includes a glass of Moët & Chandon Impérial Brut, a balanced blend of Pinot Noir, Pinot Meunier, and Chardonnay. Expect bright notes of green apple, citrus, and white flowers, with a refined, toasty finish.

Host service

A friendly, dedicated host welcomes you aboard and serves your chilled Moët & Chandon or a non-alcoholic alternative.

Group intimacy

Although shared, the small guest capacity of max. 25 people per pod ensures a more personal, less crowded ride.

Panoramic gazing

Floor-to-ceiling windows provide unobstructed 360° views of London, perfect for sightseeing or romantic moments.

Perfect backdrop

Whether it’s Big Ben, the Shard, or the Thames, your capsule becomes a floating photo studio.

Elegant interior

Clean, modern London Eye capsule, paired with soft ambient lighting, sets a relaxed, upscale tone.

Plan your visit

London Eye on the Thames River with nearby historic buildings, UK.

Daily: 10am to 8:30pm

Note: The London Eye's opening hours vary throughout the year. It's essential to check the official website for the most up-to-date schedule for your specific visit date.

Timings

London Eye capsules against a blue sky, part of the river cruise experience.

When you book this premium experience, timing is everything—both for ambience and lighting:

Golden hour (about 1 hour before sunset): Arguably the most magical time to ride. The golden tones cast a warm hue over London’s rooftops, perfect for romantic shots or stunning cityscapes.
Evening slots (after sunset): The city sparkles after dark, and the capsule transforms into a cozy retreat with a festive glow.
Midday: Offers the clearest visibility and views stretching up to 40km on a clear day—ideal for first-time visitors keen on seeing all the landmarks.
Avoid peak weekend hours if you prefer a quieter, more relaxed experience.

Directions

Guests enjoying champagne inside the London Eye capsule with city views.

Choose a sunset or evening time slot to enjoy your Champagne as London transforms from daylight to a glittering cityscape.
Arrive 15–30 minutes early to make the most of your Fast Track entry and ensure a relaxed start to your experience.
Take your time with your drink. The 30-minute rotation gives you plenty of time to sip your Champagne while enjoying the changing views.
Walk around the capsule instead of staying in one spot—you'll get different perspectives of landmarks like Big Ben, the Houses of Parliament, and The Shard.
Capture the moment thoughtfully. Enjoy the views first, then take photos once the capsule reaches its highest point for the widest panoramas.
Celebrate a special occasion. The Champagne Experience is perfect for anniversaries, birthdays, proposals, or simply making your London visit extra memorable.
Check the weather forecast before booking. Clear skies offer the best visibility, letting you see up to 40 kilometres across London on a good day.
