Visa & entry
If you need a visa, start the process well before August 14, 2026 — processing can take several weeks.
Visa requirements depend on your nationality. Many travellers can visit the UK visa-free for short stays, while others need a Standard Visitor visa or an Electronic Travel Authorisation (ETA) before travelling. Check eligibility and apply on the official UK government portal at gov.uk.
General guidance only — always confirm requirements with the official embassy/consulate for your nationality.

Airport → venue & getting around
The Underground (Tube), Overground, Elizabeth line, buses and DLR cover the whole city and are the fastest way around the centre. Buses are cashless — you tap on with a contactless card or phone.
Contactless bank card or phone (with daily/weekly fare capping), or a pay-as-you-go Oyster card
Licensed black cabs can be hailed on the street or booked via FREENOW; for minicabs always pre-book through an app rather than accepting unsolicited offers.
