After a sell-out run last year, Zip Now London returns to London’s South Bank for one last summer of thrills
Zip Now London remains the world’s longest and fastest city zip line. Soar through the sky on a 35-meter high, 225-metre-long zip wire that takes in the sights of the Houses of Parliament and the London Eye from Archbishop’s Park in Lambeth.
The zip line reaches speeds of up to 50kph, and this year comes complete with two added new thrills; a third line so you can along with two friends, plus a Mega Drop free-fall experience at the end so you can return to earth fast in style – heart-in-mouth!

Plus, you can now ride till later, open every day from 22 May until early September from 12noon until 8.30pm, so you can make the most of those glorious summer evenings.
‘Last year’s event was so successful we wanted to return for one more year, and have worked hard to make the event fresh for riders that are paying us a repeat visit,’ says founder Barry Shaverin.
‘The Mega Drop jump landing means riders are in for an even greater thrill. The additional wire adds to the social experience that so many riders last year asked for, and the extra days and later opening hours mean that we can entertain even more people than we did last year.’
The entire Zip Now experience lasts 40 minutes which includes a thorough safety briefing.
Adult tickets start at £22.50, children £16.50, family £50 (group packages available). Tickets sold out quickly last year, with over 30,000 riders taking the leap, so do book early.
