@ The Bar At Temple on Thursday 31st December 2026

Fancy partying on a boat this New Year's Eve? Head to The Bar At Temple, a 1911 Dutch barge that has been converted into a cool floating bar, which just so happens to have a brilliant vantage point of the fireworks at midnight.

Tickets start from £175, including access to bottomless drinks from the bar. You'll also receive a hot meal of chilli con carne to kick off the evening, before boogieing to tunes from a live DJ.

There's no better view this New Year's Eve than one from the Thames, which is where you'll find yourself if you hop aboard London Party Boats to wave goodbye to 2025. Expect bottomless drinks, chart-topping tunes and views of all the best landmarks in the city.

They've got two different options to choose from on the 31st, starting from £254.40 per person. This includes five whole hours of free-flowing drinks, as well as a tasty buffet, lasting until 1.30am.
