On the day Grandstand Seats

Grandstand seats for the Lord Mayor's Show go on sale in the early summer and are normally sold out by the end of September. Watch this space for news of how to buy tickets for the 2010 Show.

lastfew_03 For the very best view of the Lord Mayor's Show, book a seat in the Grandstand at St Paul's. They're very popular, and space is limited, so they always sell out.

Notes for ticket holders

All seats must be occupied by 10:45am. Please allow enough time to get to your seats, keeping in mind the size of the crowds and the closure of many nearby streets. The nearest Underground Stations are St Paul's, Mansion House and Blackfriars.
