Which New Year's Eve event in London is centered on fireworks beside the London Eye?

The New Year's Eve event in London centered on fireworks beside the London Eye is the London New Year's Eve fireworks display.

The modern public celebration takes place along the River Thames, with the London Eye and the surrounding Westminster waterfront forming its best-known visual setting. Fireworks are launched from barges and landmarks near the river, creating a timed display at midnight. The event is organized by the Mayor of London and has become a major ticketed public gathering.

The London Eye, also called the Millennium Wheel, opened to the public in 2000 and is a Ferris wheel on the South Bank. Its illuminated capsules and circular structure are frequently used as the centerpiece of televised coverage, although the fireworks involve a wider stretch of the Thames.

This event is separate from the Lord Mayor’s Show, which is an annual civic parade generally held in November. It is also distinct from Notting Hill Carnival, a summer street festival. London’s celebration follows Greenwich Mean Time in winter, when the United Kingdom observes UTC.
