All of the London attractions require pre-booking online through their web sites. Adult ticket is £12 but check to see if all of the Abbey is open. The main aisle and altar were closed when we visited, so it was a waste of time and money.

Thank you for your message. We are currently open for private prayer only. We are working on plans to re-open for visiting soon. Please keep an eye on our website regarding dates and times that may be available in July. Best wishes Visitor Experience Team Westminster Abbey

I remember when it was free! In March last year I just turned up on the day and bought the ticket then and there. I didn't have to wait long. I think you can buy the tickets online about 2 to 3 months beforehand. They have discounts for seniors. I don't know if they'll still offer discounts to teachers from EU countries. The information should be on the website. Try to go early or you'll be caught in the crowds - not a nice experience.

Hi It looks like you may be trying to book for 21 Feb. If so, we have a special half-term offer on for families. You should select the £11.00 option (1 adult and up to 4 children). Best wishes Visitor Experience team Westminster Abbey

If you wish to tour the Abbey we would encourage you to visit during our tourist visiting hours: mon-fri - 0930-1530 wed Lates - til 1800 sat - 0900-1300 (1500, May-Aug) The Abbey closes following Evensong and there is no opportunity to tour the Abbey following the service. Best wishes Visitor Experience team Westminster Abbey

If you buy your tickets via our online ticketing site you receive a discount on the gate price and priority entry into the Abbey, which greatly reduces queuing time in busy periods (Apr-Sep, Easter, Christmas and New Year). Priority entry applies to online tickets via the Abbey's own website and not to those offered by any third parties. We look forward to welcoming you to the Abbey soon.

Thanks for your question. The Abbey was not used as a location for any of the Harry Potter filming, though many visitors see a similarity between our Cloisters and those featured in the films. Christchurch Cathedral in Oxford, Alnwick Castle and Lacock Abbey are places you may wish to visit and of course if you come to London we would love to welcome you to Westminster Abbey too! Best wishes Visitor Experience team Westminster Abbey

For services please come to the Great West Door entrance (in the Sanctuary) at least 15 minutes prior to the start of the service. Full details of services and times are on our website in the 'Worship & Music' section. We look forward to welcoming you to the Abbey soon. Best wishes Visitor Experience team Westminster Abbey

You should allow up to two hours to see the whole of the Abbey, including the Queen's Diamond Jubilee Galleries, Cloisters and Chapter House. We offer a free multimedia tour (in 14 languages, a family version, and a British Sign Language version). This takes up to an hour. Verger guided tours are also available (bookable on arrival) and these last 90 minutes. If you purchase your ticket via our own website then you will also be offered priority entry (following security) which substantially reduces wait time in the entry queue.

Ticket prices and up to date opening times can be found on our website. All tickets (excluding Lates and Highlights) offer a free media guide (available in 14 languages). Regards Visitor Experience team Westminster Abbey
