After New Year's Eve, look forward to the grand New Year's Day Parade also known as LNYDP and join this grand street party, the largest event of its kind in the world. In addition to representatives from London's 32 boroughs, the parade typically features numerous marching bands from around the world, dancers, acrobats, cheerleaders, and musicians, each contributing to make this grand celebration special with 10,000 performers. The event is free, but there are some paid grandstands at Waterloo Place, near Trafalgar Square, which will open at 12:00 PM, while the grand celebration will take place from 1:00 PM to 3:30 PM.
This is a London tradition that attracts spectators from all over the world. The event, held since 1987, has become a landmark for the city. Each year, the parade raises funds for numerous charitable organizations, making it not only a festive experience but also an opportunity to support important causes. The parade also includes a Street Food Village, where you can sample a wide range of culinary delights from around the world.
