Family-Friendly New Year's Eve Events In London

If you feel like treating yourselves this New Year's Eve, Comptoir Libanais is the place to be. This vibrant Middle Eastern restaurant can be found on the Southbank, boasting amazing views of the fireworks display at midnight.

Kick things off with a glass of prosecco and nibbled, before indulging in a three-course meal of chargrilled chicken shish, aubergine tagine, crispy falafel and much more. Plus, on the entertainment front, you can expect live DJs, drummers and belly dancers.

Skip the crowds and celebrate New Year's Eve with a little icy adventure. Club Curling at Coal Drops Yard offers a fun, active alternative for all ages, where even the kids (under 12) play for free.

After your match, explore the Club Curling Lounge for immersive sensory stations and festive fun. Toast your victory (or laugh at your misses) with a cosy drink and start 2026 on a playful note.

The Montague on The Gardens Hotel is one of the most luxurious spaces around, boasting four stars and a prime location right by the British museum. There are multiple stylish dining spaces to choose from for your New Year's Eve feast, with the option to book your own private room too. Bring along your family for an indulgent meal from their a la carte menu, which features everything from herb-crusted lamb rump to chargrilled asparagus and sea trout with crushed new potatoes.

Countdown to 2026 in true rock 'n' roll fashion at Hard Rock Cafe Piccadilly. With an exclusive New Year's Eve menu, cocktails, live entertainment, and packages for adults, teens, kids, and VIP tables, it's a night of legendary food, drinks, and fun in London's iconic European flagship.

Putt in the Park is a brilliant family day out. Tee off with the kids at this quirky New Year's Eve spot in Battersea and you'll be able to play 12 holes of outdoor mini-golf, with refreshments in the form of tasty Neapolitan-style pizzas.

As far as Fly-Kid is concerned, raving has no age limit. Get your little ones down to Pop Brixton from 11am for the very best of hip hop, R&B, soul and pop, plus hourly confetti filled countdowns. 

There's all sorts to keep the young'uns entertained, including BBC 1Xtra's Emily Rawson behind the decks, face-painting, street dance lessons and a visit from Bluey and Stich. Tickets to this daytime send off for 2025 start from just £8.80 per kid - any party people too little to walk get in free. 

Don't worry, The Chesterfield Mayfair's gorgeous afternoon tea is still around on the eve of 2025. Nab a children's winter wonderland ticket for the little ones and maybe a Champagne-laced affair for the adults, so you can toast in style (we are celebrating after all).

Looking for a New Year's Eve bash in Ealing that won't break the bank but still brings the bang? Head to The Drayton Court Hotel. From 7pm, it's strictly over 18s only, with a DJ spinning classics and crowd-pleasers from 8pm, a midnight fireworks countdown, and late-night dancing until 2am.

Your £20 ticket includes a welcome drink (prosecco or Peroni), and if you fancy going all out, book a VIP heated booth for six, stocked with prosecco, beers, and hog roast vouchers for the table.

The whole family are invited to epic an New Year's Eve at the Rivoli. One of London's oldest ballrooms is opening its doors to anyone over the age of six for a night of DJs, party poppers and Auld Lang Syne.

Rivoli's low-hanging chandeliers, plush interiors and epic dancefloor demand elegance, so be sure to dress up for the occasion. Tickets to this all ages evening of entertainment start from just £16.50 for kids and £27.50 for adults.
