London, consistently voted as one of the world’s most popular destinations, packed full of landmark buildings, world class tourist attractions, restaurants offering cuisine from around the globe and, for the past 30 years, The London’s New Year’s Day Parade is more fondly known by Londoners as LNYDP. Running alongside the parade is the LNYDP concert series and the Grand Finale of the London International Choral Festival performed in internationally acclaimed music venues across the nation’s capital.

Destination Events, in partnership with the City of Westminster and The London Mayors’ Association and supported by The Corinthia Hotel, BBC Radio London, Comm-Selmer and Telenet Global Logistics have all come together to produce yet another truly wonderful series of indoor and outdoor performances, culminating in the spectacular London’s New Year’s Day Parade starting at 12noon, January 1st, 2018 on Piccadilly.

A far cry from the inaugural parade in 1987 with 2,000 performers, the 2018 Parade promises over 10,000 participants from the USA, UK, Europe and beyond to delight our street audience of over 500,000 and our TV audience which reached more than 300,000,000 in 2016.
