Belmond has announced the British Pullman New Year’s Eve 2026 journey, a special December 31 departure from London Victoria with a four-course dinner, Champagne, wine pairings and live entertainment.
For anyone looking for something different to the usual London hotel, restaurant or party on New Year’s Eve, this is a pretty good option. You spend the evening aboard the British Pullman with dinner, Champagne, wine and live entertainment, returning to London shortly after midnight.
The train departs London Victoria at 7:00pm and returns at approximately 12:20am on January 1, 2027.

The journey departs London Victoria at 7:00pm on December 31 and returns at approximately 12:20am on January 1.
Private New Year’s Eve aboard Celia
For a much more private celebration, it is also possible to reserve Celia, one of the British Pullman’s private carriages.
Celia can accommodate up to 12 guests, with the entire experience priced at £20,400.
The private experience includes:
- Private use of Celia for up to 12 guests
- Champagne welcome reception in the onboard private lounge
- Dedicated private DJ
- Four-course dinner
- English wine pairing
- Champagne at midnight
- Live musicians, singers and magicians during the evening
- Private transfers for up to six cars between London Victoria and addresses within Greater London
- Dedicated private chef and steward team
For a group of 12, that works out at £1,700 per person.
It could be particularly good for a family or group of friends who want to celebrate together without dealing with one of London's huge New Year’s Eve parties.
British Pullman New Year’s Eve dress code
This is a formal New Year’s Eve journey. Belmond requires black tie for gentlemen, with evening gowns or formal dresses for ladies.
It is very much intended to feel like an occasion rather than a normal dinner train journey.
Does the British Pullman stop for the London fireworks?
No.
This is worth knowing before booking. The train does not stop for a view of London's New Year’s Eve fireworks. The focus is on the celebration taking place onboard, with Champagne served at midnight while the train is still travelling.
The scheduled return to London Victoria is 12:20am.
