Shard London Bridge soars 310 metres over the London skyline and is one of the most recognisable buildings in Europe. The 95-storey skyscraper was designed by iconic Italian architect Renzo Piano and makes a striking impression with its splinter-like design and sleek glass façade. Within Shard London Bridge are some of the most coveted offices, hotel rooms and restaurants in the capital.

Floors 69 and 72 are public observation platforms where you can enjoy sweeping views over London. It’s almost twice as high as other viewing platforms in London, with vistas stretching for more than 60 kilometres on a clear day. From champagne parties to silent discos, the venue hosts exclusive events throughout the year.

Aqua Shard occupies the 31st floor and features soaring three-storey-high ceilings and tilted glass walls. It’s the perfect place to sip an artisan cocktail and admire London from a bird’s eye perspective.

Getting there

Shard London Bridge is located in Central London, just steps from London Bridge Train Station and London Bridge Underground Station on the Northern Line. Local buses stop within a five-minute walk of the building while limited parking is available on the street and at nearby garages. Heathrow Airport is a one-hour drive away.
