Capital Pleasure Boats

Having been hosting private hire functions and events for over 20 years, you can count on Capital Pleasure Boats for a brilliant New Year's Eve party. There are two different boats to choose from on the 31st, with tickets to suit all budgets. 

You'll set off from Blackfriars or Temple Pier, before cruising down the Thames for four hours and soaking up the city's sights at night - including the fireworks at midnight. Boogie to live DJs playing disco tunes, and there's even the option to add on bottomless drinks.

London Party Boats Ltd

Take in all the greatest sights along the Thames on M.V. Jewel of London or M.V. Pearl of London - two options from London Party Boats. These stellar cruises are all-inclusive, meaning you'll be sipping the night away with unlimited fizz, beer and spirits.

Tickets start from £240 per person, and you'll get to see landmarks like Tower Bridge, the O2 Arena and Big Ben along the way. Plus, there'll be a tasty buffet to keep you fuelled for a night of dancing.
