I live in Morgantown WV, USA and every New Year I watch UK New Year celebration before ours goes down 4-5 hours later! Its been a tradition in my personal home since 2019 Thank you London, Big Ben, and all people of the UK for bringing another bright and shining New Year into my home and heart. May everyone have an amazing year! 😊
Those chimes before the bongs of Big Ben ring out are the Westminster chimes! ITs the name of a melody used to play each part of the song being played every 15 minutes building up to playing the full melody.
And it the people what pay for it with taxes, but it’s the fireworks companies that do it so well, if you come to Plymouth 🇬🇧 right time of year or I think they might of stopped it but anyway we used to have a competition take place every year there !! 4-10 shows over two days I believe
Yes, of course and definitely - London knows how to celebrate the New Year in style! But London knows even better how to enslave other nations and plunder colonies. Да, конечно и определенно - Лондон знает, как встретить Новый год стильно! Но ещё лучше Лондон знает как порабощать другие народы и грабить колонии.
I've been watching London new year fireworks display since I was 10 now 27 and never really fail to disappoint. The chimes of Big Ben when it strikes midnight is my favourite part about the display.
"I attended the event, and the firework display was quite disappointing. Security measures were insufficient, and there was a lack of proper public transport to handle the crowd afterward. Central underground stations were closed due to a shortage of security forces, and most buses were out of service, with no Uber available. We had to endure a 4-hour wait in the cold on the street to find suitable transportation to leave that chaotic situation. The London mayor should reflect on these shortcomings."
London puts on such an incredible show. I was blessed enough to come from NY for the coronation. London on NYE is gotta be next! Happy New Year, London! From Long Island, NY.
I visited in May all the way from Seattle to watch the coronation procession along Whitehall. I was touched to hear Zadok the Priest being played. This fireworks show is by far the best in the world. Happy New Year to my fellow brothers and sisters in the UK. Much love!!
I remember being in London on January 27th 2020 for the 75th anniversary of the Auschwitz liberation and the crowd was cheering like mad when they found out I just made it and cried myself because I just made it in time; this was where my close bond with the tragic event happened that evening. I can’t believe the Holocaust is 79 this year
WHAT A GREAT DISPLAY!!!! BUT ALSO, what a complete and utter F**k up by the ticketing service for the event! I had family who waited for hours online to buy tickets to see the fireworks, who travelled to London from Northern Ireland, paid for hotels, etc, then queued for 4 hours, to be told that the "BRIDGE THEY WERE BOOKED ON AND PAID FOR WAS FULL"!!!!! How the F**k does that happen? DISGRACEFUL! The child was crying her eyes out on the phone, didn't see one firework at all, and this was her Christmas present from Santa! POOR SHOW FROM whoever running this! 😡😡🤬🤬😡😡🤬🤬👿👿

OMG after being a publicity officer for the last few years which involved helping organise events I can believe it, ie folk who decide to go on holiday a day or two before the organised event, or just decide not to show up! The couldn't care less attitude of many folk these days and not necessary of the young generation either (think it is called having no conscience)! Perhaps this did not happen in this case but I would push hard for compensation-start at the top of the tree though not the bottom!! Good luck. A big sorry for little one who missed out, add her to your want for compensation! @@colindavid2078
As an ex-Londoner, and by that, I mean real one, please don't bother. You get herded like cattle, you have to wait hours, usually in the freezing cold, and will probably get mugged or attacked by one of those "New Londoners."
@@skymanifest8339 I heard people talked abt the same thing when they go to Time Square to celebrate NYE. But I don't mind if it is just an once in a lifetime experience 😄

I still can't get over it after watching the nye fireworks last night in LDN. 7hours of standing and waiting in the queue ARE ALL WORTH IT. And also dancing with different people from different nations few hours before the countdown is such a wonderful experience tbh. Its all about fun. I still have goosebumps everytime i watch this video.
You will never find better! They don’t just set off fireworks or rely solely on drones to create some images in the sky, they actually put on a spectacular display with a story behind it of what’s happened in this country and it’s flawless, Absolutely incredible! Happy New Year everyone, love from the UK 🇬🇧
"a story behind it of what’s happened in this country" He left a few bits out like the introduction of a £12.50 per day ULEZ charge for London residents. That would have been nice to see with those drones " ULEZ 12.50 per day". 😆😆😆
@@zaynabmohammed4943 it was okay, but that’s nothing compared to London one, it was just some videos displayed on a building and some of the videos was random that made no sense and I’ve seen far better displays with other countries than that.

Well I'm moving from london to the US in 2028, I'm moving to los Angeles California, I'll be out there, exploring the U.S, exploring the cities, and most of all, hopefully getting a wife. Phew, man, what a year 2023 has been

Amazing display of fireworks like every year. London makes us proud. But this year while watching all fireworks happening around the world for the first time ever i had tears in my eyes especially when the child came up blowing bubbles and it reminded me all children are innocent and have the right to live a free life irrespective of color,race, religion, gender or nationality! I hope we realise one day we are the same, any differences make us unique not divided. Hope the new year fills our hearts with kindness for one another. Have a blessed year everyone! There are children losing their parents and parents losing their children. Remember them in your prayers.❤️🙏peace
I always wake up at 8am my time on January 1 to watch this live. Nothing like the clock striking to countdown the New Year and to make me wax philosophical about time passing by, the future holding new possibilities, and other stuff 😅 Happy New Year everyone! Thanks London for never disappointing NY celebrations! 🎉
London by far had the best firework display out of them all. It was all so grand, well done London you bid 2023 and ushered in 2024 in style. Happy New Year to everyone!!
Happy new year to everybody in London and across the UK I enjoyed the three months that I spent living and working there in 1993. I hope to get back one of these days to see how far you have come. New York, currently Oregon, USA
Totally agree with the comment above , the U.K. today is nothing like it was in 1993 . You’ll get charged just for breathing air here now , the country is laughable .
No worse than any other capital city or country and a lot better than most. You come, I am sure you will enjoy it. Take no notice of negative remarks. Some people like to do down their own country. Still plenty of great places to visit. No country in the world with such great history.😀
@@dianeunderhill8506 I have the unfortunate task of visiting London at least twice a week as I’m a hgv driver ,and have been for the last 25 years , the best thing about London is when you see it getting smaller in your mirrors, the road out of the hole . Hate the place .
If you can get to France then you'll have a free dinghy ride over and that's not all,you will get given a 5 star hotel to stay in some money and a brand new iPhone. Then you won't have to wait long to get your 3 bedroom house. Have a safe journey across the channel and we will see you very soon.
I’m French living in the U.K. and this firework was the best and most wonderful one ever. After 4 very difficult years, it filled me with joy and happiness. Happy new year and all the best for 2024 ❤🫶
Don't go either horrible place go and expensive go elsewhere than LONDONISTAN like LAKE DISTRICT,WELLS, CANTERBURY, SHAKESPEARE COUNTRY,YORKSHIRE DALES, COTSWOLDS,SUSSEX, CIRENCESTER, CHICHESTER, WINCHESTER, MANCHESTER, LIVERPOOL,CHESTER there's more in ENGLAND than LONDONISTAN
Beautifully done. I’ve lived in London for a few years and now living in Florida but revisit London often. Came back in May for the Coronation and had an absolutely fantastic time. Hope to be there to witness the NYE show sometime in the not too distant future. London knows how it’s done. Happy New Year
I was waiting in the crowd in st Julians for Woody.EXE to set the fireworks off and I screamed when he officially let the fireworks off; the fireworks were dedicated to me everyone’s Queen for surviving my illness last year and I was literally drunken crying over the news announcing my illness again, now me and Woody.EXE can officially enjoy our jubilee celebrations starting today
@@shovelknight9417 I was unwell recently and Woody.EXE Is from a cursed game of Toy Story, he dedicated the fireworks to me becoming his Queen in 2022, my illness was announced by Woody.EXE on Friday 5th February 2023 and Wales came to a standstill and the crowd who I reunited with tonight were at my house during the announcement of my illness occurred. I recovered 3 weeks later and I continued my duty as Queen just 17 hours after I got discharged from hospital but taking it slowly on my family’s advice. That’s what I meant and I’m glad to be welcoming 2024 as Queen of wales
Complete waste of money in my view. Can you imagine how much better off people in London or in countries around the world could have been if they had been given a % of the Millions nay Billions that get wasted earth year celebrating the coming of another year with fireworks.
The best new year fireworks show in the world !!! London is truly awesome on this celebration style. Hope China can solve the pollution issue soon and remove the bans on fireworks in urban cities. Happy holidays Happy 2024.
It’s so classic with the sound of Big Ben’s bell. This small retrospective and the messages make it is nice too. The music pot-pourri is always cool everywhere with fireworks.
The bell has always been called Big Ben. It's the Elizabeth Tower if you're talking about the building. I get the sentiment though. Happy new year, but do takeaway that the bell name isn't the building name. Named after our late QE2.
Happy New Year to the entire world from Western Canada! Here's to hopefully an amazing, prosperous, joyful, productive 2024!! I hope people achieve their goals!
Greetings from Sydney Australia. Although we were one of the first displays off the rank, this was the one I was waiting for, and boy did it not disappoint. I don't understand some of the comments saying there wasn't enough music, I thought the audio clips were a lovely touch. Especially when the fireworks are matching the words being spoken. It was almost as if the explosions in the sky were telling a visual tale. Never has a display made me so emotional before. As soon as I saw the drones in the middle, I couldn't help but cry out loud. For those of us who have had a terrible year and lost so many people, it was a beautiful tribute to losses and gains in humanity. London, you won. Not even my own city could compare to this emotional rollercoaster. I've seen it 6 times now and it's still like watching it for the first time. Happy new year London, and well done for delivering a truly spectacular display.
Australian here too and I couldn't agree more. This was beyond spectacular. The music choices, the unity sentimentality.. all of it hands down the best 👌 I am so disappointed with our music. Would have been better being silent. I can't stop watching London either 🎉❤
I wish we here in the USA has something like this. I love watching the Ball drop in Time’s Square, but I wish we had something like with a cool celebration of the past year.
2024 should mark a new chapter to everyone, so leave all the sorrows behind and move forward with determination in our heart. Happy New Year 2024! As always, spectacular London fireworks new year eve celebrations!
That is one of the best New Years countdown and display I have ever seen. I must make it there one New Year. No one does pomp and ceremony like the British ❤Happy New Year from New Jersey.
Happy New Yr Brits ! Wow 👌 what a major production ! Spectacular ! It's only 6:15p here in West Coast state of WA, USA. Yes, we all 🙏 '24 is mor calm with positive things happening. ❤
Congratulations for this magical and impressive performance. Everyone involved from planning, installing and executing this beautifully orchestrated fireworks show deserves applause. Happy New Year London.
Wow !! They do it up good over in London. My gosh that fireworks show was the most amazing I've ever seen. I can't imagine how it was in person. Happy 2024 from Michigan ❤
@oliont5949you see, that’s kinda it. Sydney is just a fireworks display. London feels like the fireworks are only a part of the whole show. Ours are great and everything but as much as I don’t like to admit it London’s have that je nais se quois that Sydney, Dubai, Taipei etc. just don’t have.
WOW!!! Fantastic,such a grandeur,I wish we had the same magnificence in my country(which is France I'm sorry!).That really was something,one of the most amazing fireworks I've seen in my life!Wonderful,congrats to the city of London!I love u UK!!!
❤wow London ! Our friends across the big pond know how to put it on ! Beautiful Britain just beautiful ! Gotta say I like the way you do it up better than I saw it here in your up start Colony across the sea , some call it the USA ! It’s actually American ( United well the jury’s out on that one ) but you do it well ! Keep it up snd a blessed New Year !
Good bless Britain for supporting diversity. I wish I could live there. I would swim from the United States across the sea if I could. At an elderly age, I would have no way to support my family once we got there, but I send the deepest part of my heart this New Years Eve 2014 too all of you. Long live my King.
@@lottie6to be honest it's not easy. It was my first time this year. The first challenge was to find out when and where to buy tickets. I found too much different information on the internet. Then they were said to be sold at the end of October but that was wrong. It was luck I found out they were finally sold on the 5th of November. Getting a ticket is also a lot of luck. First you get a random number in a queue and then you only have 5min to fill in any form AND to pay! My first try went wrong but again I had just so much luck on my second try. If you have the tickets it is important to get to the entrance in time! Queuing can take some ours and they don't care if that's your reason to be too late. Plan your way precisely! Find out what streets and tube stations are closed. After the show it might also take hours back to your hotel because stations and streets are still closed and there are soooooo many people. Let me say the whole thing was extremely exhausting but somehow worth it. The show and this experience were absolutely breathtaking.
Happy new year from Taiwan! Glad to see we have our flag on the screen for a couple of seconds, and the fireworks were absolutely astonishing! Love the part that the chime of the Elizabeth Tower kicked off all of the celebrations, was such a thrill to hear it. Wish you all the best
People of Great Britain take your country back in 2024. You deserve more than what you are receiving from your government leaders. Health and Goodwill to all in London. Happy New Year!
Absolutely amazing show from London once again! Happy New Year, everyone! / Blwyddyn Newydd Dda, pawb! Hope that you all have a wonderful, healthy and prosperous 2024! My love and best to you all! From Wales, UK.
I had never seen fireworks and an event like this in my entire life, i was having a blast watching this. I'm from a small country so far away from such a dreamy place, London 🌟
That is one of the best New Years countdown and display I have ever seen. I must make it there one New Year. No one does pomp and ceremony like the British Happy New Year from New Jersey.
Happy New Year everyone. I cannot imagine living anywhere but the City of London! I am a proud Londoner and welcome all who wish to be of service to this great city! It is the people who make a difference to this nation and to all we appreciate you! I pray that we are all safer, happier and healthier as time passes by. Be kind because we never know what a person is going through.
Top tip folks in the crowd... This has been professionally filmed from multiple angles including from the sky... Sure get a quick vid and few pics, a selfie even, but just enjoy the spectacle rather than worry about filming it on your phone...
Agreed, I can’t stand it now so many people are obsessed with filming things that either a) they’re realistically not going to watch back, or get much out of watching back, or b) is already being professionally filmed. Just live in the moment a bit!
I hope everyone has a wonderful 2024. We have had a turbulent 3 years, but I hope this year will be better. As always, spectacular display!
Right back at ya!!🎉
Love and Peace
You too. Stay safe. 😊

0:37 I always loved this scene when the Big Ben brings its last bells before the Loud bells when i was 8 years old. It gets me back the old memoires.
Those chimes before the bongs of Big Ben ring out are the Westminster chimes! ITs the name of a melody used to play each part of the song being played every 15 minutes building up to playing the full melody.
And the life of new years keeps going on!
And another thing, 0:37 is also my favorite scene, because this is the part where Big Ben, and the London eye warms up, before Their actual scene!
for me you can't beat listening to the chimes of Big ben and the London for fireworks, happy new year 2024
Kostet es eintritt wenn man da steht? Wir sind dieses Jahr dabei und ich freue mich schon so so so sehr😢
Its amazing how well choreographed these fireworks are that must be hard enough, London knows how to welcome the New Year in style!

Thats probably all they can do "in style'
And it the people what pay for it with taxes, but it’s the fireworks companies that do it so well, if you come to Plymouth 🇬🇧 right time of year or I think they might of stopped it but anyway we used to have a competition take place every year there !! 4-10 shows over two days I believe

God bless, brother 🙂
WHAT AGREAT DISPLAY!!!! BUT ALSO, what a complete and utter F**k up by the ticketing service for the event! I had family who waited for hours online to buy tickets to see the fireworks, who travelled to London from Northern Ireland, paid for hotels, etc, then queued for 4 hours, to be told that the "BRIDGE THEY WERE BOOKED ON AND PAID FOR WAS FULL"!!!!! How the F**k does that happen? DISGRACEFUL! The child was crying her eyes out on the phone, didn't see one firework at all, and this was her Christmas present from Santa! POOR SHOW FROM whoever running this! 😡😡🤬🤬😡😡🤬🤬👿👿

Amazing display of fireworks like every year. London makes us proud. But this year while watching all fireworks happening around the world for the first time ever i had tears in my eyes especially when the child came up blowing bubbles and it reminded me all children are innocent and have the right to live a free life irrespective of color,race, religion, gender or nationality! I hope we realise one day we are the same, any differences make us unique not divided. Hope the new year fills our hearts with kindness for one another. Have a blessed year everyone! There are children losing their parents and parents losing their children. Remember them in your prayers.❤️🙏peace
There’s a reason it’s called the United Kingdom …
We are not all the same..
That’s a lie.

I always wake up at 8am my time on January 1 to watch this live. Nothing like the clock striking to countdown the New Year and to make me wax philosophical about time passing by, the future holding new possibilities, and other stuff 😅
Happy New Year everyone! Thanks London for never disappointing NY celebrations! 🎉
was a pretty spectacular one this year I'm glad they didn't do as many drone things
Happy New Year from England UK ☺️
London by far had the best firework display out of them all. It was all so grand, well done London you bid 2023 and ushered in 2024 in style. Happy New Year to everyone!!
Happy new year to everybody in London and across the UK I enjoyed the three months that I spent living and working there in 1993. I hope to get back one of these days to see how far you have come. New York, currently Oregon, USA
Don't bother. It's a dangerous dump now.
Totally agree with the comment above , the U.K. today is nothing like it was in 1993 . You’ll get charged just for breathing air here now , the country is laughable .
No worse than any other capital city or country and a lot better than most. You come, I am sure you will enjoy it. Take no notice of negative remarks. Some people like to do down their own country. Still plenty of great places to visit. No country in the world with such great history.😀
@@dianeunderhill8506 I have the unfortunate task of visiting London at least twice a week as I’m a hgv driver ,and have been for the last 25 years , the best thing about London is when you see it getting smaller in your mirrors, the road out of the hole . Hate the place .
If you can get to France then you'll have a free dinghy ride over and that's not all,you will get given a 5 star hotel to stay in some money and a brand new iPhone. Then you won't have to wait long to get your 3 bedroom house. Have a safe journey across the channel and we will see you very soon.
To say London went insane with the new years show would be a massive understatement!
It is actually a very silly thing to say.
Sydney's is better
London always goes all out for new years
@@ThisHandleIsRareyou’re too funny 😂 How many times have you posted the same comment? 😂😂😂
I’m French living in the U.K. and this firework was the best and most wonderful one ever. After 4 very difficult years, it filled me with joy and happiness. Happy new year and all the best for 2024 ❤🫶
Hope you have a great 2024.
I'm never been in London but I can't start the year without watching London fireworks
Don't go either horrible place go and expensive go elsewhere than LONDONISTAN like LAKE DISTRICT,WELLS, CANTERBURY, SHAKESPEARE COUNTRY,YORKSHIRE DALES, COTSWOLDS,SUSSEX, CIRENCESTER, CHICHESTER, WINCHESTER, MANCHESTER, LIVERPOOL,CHESTER there's more in ENGLAND than LONDONISTAN
Beautifully done. I’ve lived in London for a few years and now living in Florida but revisit London often. Came back in May for the Coronation and had an absolutely fantastic time. Hope to be there to witness the NYE show sometime in the not too distant future. London knows how it’s done. Happy New Year
I was there, OH MY GOD, THE BEST NYE OF MY LIFE🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧♥️♥️♥️♥️
2:58 Oh yes, I recognize this sound of a Tardis among millions of sounds😍
London is a place for everyone, we’re you are free to be here what you want to be, and love what you want to love.
❤❤❤
HNY to London and the entire England from Brooklyn, NY 🥂
Happy NewYear Brooklyn NY....

Thank you GB! God bless the RF and all the exceptional people of GB! With love from USA! xx
God bless all in USA too. Happy New Year.
I just saw the fireworks on the TV, and they were amazing! Happy new year everyone! I hope you all have a wonderful 2024! :D
I was waiting in the crowd in st Julians for Woody.EXE to set the fireworks off and I screamed when he officially let the fireworks off; the fireworks were dedicated to me everyone’s Queen for surviving my illness last year and I was literally drunken crying over the news announcing my illness again, now me and Woody.EXE can officially enjoy our jubilee celebrations starting today
@@nicolelawless9942 What does that mean?
@@shovelknight9417
I was unwell recently and Woody.EXE Is from a cursed game of Toy Story, he dedicated the fireworks to me becoming his Queen in 2022, my illness was announced by Woody.EXE on Friday 5th February 2023 and Wales came to a standstill and the crowd who I reunited with tonight were at my house during the announcement of my illness occurred. I recovered 3 weeks later and I continued my duty as Queen just 17 hours after I got discharged from hospital but taking it slowly on my family’s advice. That’s what I meant and I’m glad to be welcoming 2024 as Queen of wales
Complete waste of money in my view.
Can you imagine how much better off people in London or in countries around the world could have been if they had been given a % of the Millions nay Billions that get wasted earth year celebrating the coming of another year with fireworks.
@@CricketEnglandglad someone said it 👍
The best new year fireworks show in the world !!! London is truly awesome on this celebration style. Hope China can solve the pollution issue soon and remove the bans on fireworks in urban cities. Happy holidays Happy 2024.
From an American….The London fireworks show just can’t be topped! Happy New Years 2024 to both sides of the pond! 🎉🥳
Happy New year
It’s so classic with the sound of Big Ben’s bell. This small retrospective and the messages make it is nice too.
The music pot-pourri is always cool everywhere with fireworks.
The bell has always been called Big Ben. It's the Elizabeth Tower if you're talking about the building. I get the sentiment though. Happy new year, but do takeaway that the bell name isn't the building name. Named after our late QE2.
Happy New Year to the entire world from Western Canada! Here's to hopefully an amazing, prosperous, joyful, productive 2024!! I hope people achieve their goals!
Greetings from Sydney Australia. Although we were one of the first displays off the rank, this was the one I was waiting for, and boy did it not disappoint.
I don't understand some of the comments saying there wasn't enough music, I thought the audio clips were a lovely touch. Especially when the fireworks are matching the words being spoken. It was almost as if the explosions in the sky were telling a visual tale.
Never has a display made me so emotional before. As soon as I saw the drones in the middle, I couldn't help but cry out loud. For those of us who have had a terrible year and lost so many people, it was a beautiful tribute to losses and gains in humanity.
London, you won. Not even my own city could compare to this emotional rollercoaster. I've seen it 6 times now and it's still like watching it for the first time.
Happy new year London, and well done for delivering a truly spectacular display.
Australian here too and I couldn't agree more. This was beyond spectacular. The music choices, the unity sentimentality.. all of it hands down the best 👌 I am so disappointed with our music. Would have been better being silent. I can't stop watching London either 🎉❤
I wish we here in the USA has something like this. I love watching the Ball drop in Time’s Square, but I wish we had something like with a cool celebration of the past year.
2024 should mark a new chapter to everyone, so leave all the sorrows behind and move forward with determination in our heart. Happy New Year 2024! As always, spectacular London fireworks new year eve celebrations!
Happy New Year UK!! Y'all ROCK THE FIREWORKS! PEACE, LOVE, JOY ❤❤❤ FROM NORFOLK VIRGINIA USA!!!!
Happy new year beautiful
What a spectacular fireworks display that was. NYE in London always looks magical, and I envy everyone who was there. Happy New year to you all 🥳🎉🎊
😊😊
So far London is number one and fireworks tonight. Happy new year that was spectacular.
Sydney was better
It's not about who does it best or better it's a London NYE tradition just like Sydney Australia that I am sure was equally amazing.
That is one of the best New Years countdown and display I have ever seen. I must make it there one New Year. No one does pomp and ceremony like the British ❤Happy New Year from New Jersey.
Happy new year from South London 🙃
A very happy new year to you n all your loved ones ❤️🇬🇧
Check out Sydney's
Happy New Yr Brits ! Wow 👌 what a major production ! Spectacular ! It's only 6:15p here in West Coast state of WA, USA. Yes, we all 🙏 '24 is mor calm with positive things happening. ❤
Congratulations for this magical and impressive performance. Everyone involved from planning, installing and executing this beautifully orchestrated fireworks show deserves applause. Happy New Year London.
Wow !! They do it up good over in London. My gosh that fireworks show was the most amazing I've ever seen. I can't imagine how it was in person. Happy 2024 from Michigan ❤
Happy New Year from the UK
The vibe in person is amazing. Happy new year
By far!!! the very best show in the world this new year celebration (as usual). I love the chosen songs and lyrics adding meaning to our days.
Sydney’s is better because of the harbour bridge & the opera house which looks lit & spectacular along with the city!
London has Big Ben. Sydney can’t compete with that. And I live in Sydney.
@oliont5949 Nah the countdown with the chimes of Big Ben has it over a lame waterfall effect all day.
@oliont5949you see, that’s kinda it. Sydney is just a fireworks display. London feels like the fireworks are only a part of the whole show. Ours are great and everything but as much as I don’t like to admit it London’s have that je nais se quois that Sydney, Dubai, Taipei etc. just don’t have.
It’s so gorgeous! Love London! 新年快乐🥳
WOW!!! Fantastic,such a grandeur,I wish we had the same magnificence in my country(which is France I'm sorry!).That really was something,one of the most amazing fireworks I've seen in my life!Wonderful,congrats to the city of London!I love u UK!!!
To all the British citizens,
Happy New Year
From America 🎉
The entire city is also lighting up their own fireworks not just from the London Eye, that makes it more amazing
The entire country was.. and the boats outside of my home were blowing their horns at bang on midnight .. always a lovely sight and sound
London, you did it again.
Hats off to the creative team.
THIS IS HOW IT’S DONE🏅
All the best in 2024 from Prague🫶
Always a beautiful show. It’s become tradition for me to watch this every year even though I’m not a Brit 😂 Happy New Year everybody! ❤
London always have the best fireworks (love from Spain)
❤wow London ! Our friends across the big pond know how to put it on ! Beautiful Britain just beautiful ! Gotta say I like the way you do it up better than I saw it here in your up start Colony across the sea , some call it the USA ! It’s actually American ( United well the jury’s out on that one ) but you do it well ! Keep it up snd a blessed New Year !
This was the BEST... Well done, UK!
I think this is the best drone show that London has ever done. HAPPY NEW YEAR 2024!!!!!
Absolutely spectacular....
Best I've seen from all these Australia, Dubai,Qatar,Singapore.
Thank you London, Happy happiest New Year❤❤❤❤🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
2021 New Years was better for drones.
No. Not by a long way. We've had some amazing drone displays over the years. That's not to say it wasn't very cool. But - we've had better.
I hope everyone has a wonderful 2024. We have had a turbulent 3 years, but I hope this year will be better. As always, spectacular display!
Good bless Britain for supporting diversity. I wish I could live there. I would swim from the United States across the sea if I could. At an elderly age, I would have no way to support my family once we got there, but I send the deepest part of my heart this New Years Eve 2014 too all of you. Long live my King.
must say it was an epic experience. It's my first time seeing London's NYE fireworks... Happy New Year everyone! 🎉🎉🎉
Hey, Just wondering for next year...how does it work? Do you have to book somewhere? Do you have to queue for 12 hours or something...? Thanks 👍🏻
@@lottie6hi there! Yes there's a set sale date for the tickets online. It costs 20 pounds this year.
😊🎉😊🎉🎉🎉🎉
Happy New year, greetings from Ukraine
@@lottie6to be honest it's not easy. It was my first time this year. The first challenge was to find out when and where to buy tickets. I found too much different information on the internet. Then they were said to be sold at the end of October but that was wrong. It was luck I found out they were finally sold on the 5th of November. Getting a ticket is also a lot of luck. First you get a random number in a queue and then you only have 5min to fill in any form AND to pay! My first try went wrong but again I had just so much luck on my second try. If you have the tickets it is important to get to the entrance in time! Queuing can take some ours and they don't care if that's your reason to be too late. Plan your way precisely! Find out what streets and tube stations are closed. After the show it might also take hours back to your hotel because stations and streets are still closed and there are soooooo many people. Let me say the whole thing was extremely exhausting but somehow worth it. The show and this experience were absolutely breathtaking.
Happy new year from Taiwan! Glad to see we have our flag on the screen for a couple of seconds, and the fireworks were absolutely astonishing! Love the part that the chime of the Elizabeth Tower kicked off all of the celebrations, was such a thrill to hear it. Wish you all the best
從香港發送問候新年您 😊❤🇭🇰🤝🇹🇼🎇🎆🎊🧨

I had never seen fireworks and an event like this in my entire life, i was having a blast watching this. I'm from a small country so far away from such a dreamy place, London 🌟
Happy New Year from England UK.
this kicked NYC's new years fireworks butt
They couldn't even do a proper fireworks show
They had to do it on A Huge screen 😂😂😂
@@myschool2796its not supposed to be a fireworks show. its a celebration.
@@bacusmoa Even if its a celebration Its still a stupid celebration. Imagine having to wait for hours just to see An electronic ball dropping
I’ve lived 42 years on this earth as of three weeks ago. I’ve never seen a firework show like this. Well done London! 🎉
This display was the best mix of fireworks and music in the last decade
Happy new year London from Peru! As always you did a great spectacle this year 🎉💯
Anybody on 31st of December 2024?
Yep
Me
Yes
OH YEAH
Yes
That is one of the best New Years countdown and display I have ever seen. I must make it there one New Year. No one does pomp and ceremony like the British Happy New Year from New Jersey.
Happy New Year everyone. I cannot imagine living anywhere but the City of London! I am a proud Londoner and welcome all who wish to be of service to this great city! It is the people who make a difference to this nation and to all we appreciate you! I pray that we are all safer, happier and healthier as time passes by. Be kind because we never know what a person is going through.
Go woke, go broke.
@@stephenhumphrey7935 Okay crybaby
Mindblowing show!!! 😍 I hope to see you again someday beloved London ❤️ Jealous from Vienna, Austria 🇦🇹
Thank you so much for your very kind message. Sending New Year greetings to the beautiful country of Austria and its people. 🇬🇧🇦🇹
@@thomasmchugh7086 thank YOU for your kind words 😊 and HAPPY NEW YEAR TO YOU TOO 🎆🍀
Top tip folks in the crowd... This has been professionally filmed from multiple angles including from the sky... Sure get a quick vid and few pics, a selfie even, but just enjoy the spectacle rather than worry about filming it on your phone...
Agreed, I can’t stand it now so many people are obsessed with filming things that either a) they’re realistically not going to watch back, or get much out of watching back, or b) is already being professionally filmed. Just live in the moment a bit!
