"Getty The final batch of tickets for the official viewing area for London's New Year's Eve firework display have been released for sale on Monday. City Hall closes off an area on the bank of the River Thames from Lambeth Bridge to Blackfriars Bridge which will be ticketed to watch the fireworks on New Year's Eve."
"Prices have increased for non-Londoners this year for enhanced security and crowd management. Tickets for London residents are 20 and 35, but those living outside the capital will pay 40 and 55, depending on the tier. The mayor's office said the price increase was to comply with Martyn's Law, created following the Manchester Arena attack in 2017."
"The reforms require venues with a capacity of more than 200 to have a plan in place in case of an attack on their premises. There are six different ticketed viewing areas blue, red, pink, green and white, plus an orange accessible viewing area. City Hall said only tickets bought from the authorised outlet Ticketmaster will be accepted and that no official tickets will be sold by any other websites."

City Hall will close the riverbank from Lambeth Bridge to Blackfriars Bridge for ticketed viewing. Prices have risen for non-London residents to support enhanced security and crowd management. London residents face two tiers priced at 20 and 35, while non-residents will pay 40 and 55 depending on tier. The price rise is to comply with Martyn's Law introduced after the 2017 Manchester Arena attack. The law requires venues with capacity over 200 to have an attack plan. Six ticketed viewing areas include an orange accessible zone, and only Ticketmaster tickets will be accepted.
