The View from The Shard Ticket

Situated at the top of London’s tallest building, The View from The Shard offers unrivalled 360 degree panoramic views, stretching over 40 miles of London’s skyline for as far as the eye can see.

The equivalent of the height of 57 double-decker buses, The View from The Shard is London's highest viewing gallery and a must-do for all London visitors, enabling guests to experience the capital like never before!

Your journey begins in the extraordinary high-speed lift that carries you to the show-stopping heights of Level 69 and Level 72. Here you will find the viewing galleries, two Moet & Chandon Champagne bars, and more. Level 69 is indoors and offers guests comfortable, unparalleled 360-degree views for up to 40 miles taking in all of the city's iconic landmarks at once. From the ‘open-air Skydeck’ on Level 72, kick back, relax and feel the sun (hopefully!) on your face and the breeze in your hair as you gaze down at the London below. An unforgettable experience!

The View from The Shard closes one hour after the final admission time.
