The London Eye celebrates its 20th birthday in March, and will be transforming its pods into immersive experiences for the ‘ultimate party’. Visitors will get to ride in a garden, pub, and Buckingham Palace.
The attraction is giving visitors the opportunity to ride in 20 uniquely themed pods from March 6 to March 9, 2020.
Some of the pods will be decorated to reflect London’s offerings, while others will host one-off experiences celebrating culture, arts and entertainment in London.
In one pod, guests can take a selfie with the Queen Elizabeth figure from Madame Tussauds while sitting on a royal throne with the backdrop of Buckingham Palace.

In another, guests can immerse themselves in flowers in a pod inspired by London’s Royal Parks, while a third will offer performances of songs from the West End, and a fourth will become the world’s first elevated British pub.
Additional experiences include a spinning class with Boom Cycle Waterloo, music sessions with artists from Busk London, a silent disco in the sky, and stories for kids with Hamleys.
