Putney’s New Year’s Eve scene is firmly adult-focused this year – so far we’ve been unable to find any family-friendly early countdown events in the area.
Parents with young children should look to Central London venues like the Rivoli Ballroom or Ministry of Sound’s Raver Tots events for family options. For everyone else, here’s your complete guide to seeing in 2026 across Putney, Wandsworth and nearby areas.
From budget-friendly pub parties to premium Thames cruises, the area offers something for most celebration styles and wallets.
Budget celebrations (under £20)
The Arab Boy on Upper Richmond Road leads the free entry options, with the wonderful Stephie Grace performing from 9.30pm, bringing great energy, amazing vocals and the perfect vibe to welcome 2026!
The Ram in Wandsworth will also be welcoming revellers from 10pm to 3am with DJs spinning party classics. Standing room is free, or secure a seat for £5.50.
Le Fez in Putney offers tiered pricing for late-night club vibes. Entry costs £15 before 10:30pm, rising to £20 before midnight and £25 before 1am. The Black & Gold themed party runs until 4am with disco funk, confetti explosions at midnight, and a bubbly toast.
The Railway turns back time with its “Back In Time” party, featuring 80s, 90s and 00s hits from 9pm to 2am. Tickets are £16.50 and include a welcome drink on arrival.
Mid-range options (£20-£60)
Tequila Mockingbird offers two ways in. General admission starts at £11 for DJs playing RnB, hip hop and garage until 3am, or opt for the bottomless option at £54 for two hours of unlimited pizza, pints, prosecco and pornstar martinis from 8pm to 10pm.
The Telegraph on Putney Heath splits its offering between a £20 drinks-only option and an £89 dining package with three courses, fizz on arrival and DJ TommySolo. Both run from 7pm to 2am.
The Half Moon brings live music to the table with City Funk Orchestra performing soul and funk classics from 8:30pm. Tickets cost £35, with a three-course set menu available and DJs in the main bar for those who can’t snag concert tickets.
Duke’s Head combines dinner and dancing in its Rowing Club space, offering a three-course meal with DJs for £54, running from 7pm to 1am.
Premium celebrations (£75+)
Coppa Club delivers riverside elegance with a £75 three-course menu, fizz on arrival and their signature heated igloos available until 1am. Perfect for those wanting a stylish but not excessive night out.
For the biggest splurge, Uber Boat’s Thames cruise departs from Putney Pier at £195. The package includes welcome drinks, champagne at midnight, snacks and prime views of London’s fireworks from the water.
Nearby options worth the journey
The Anglers in Teddington (about 20 minutes from Putney) offers two tiers: £20 for fireworks viewing with a welcome drink from 10pm, or £65 for dining plus fireworks. Part of the proceeds supports charity.
The Bridge in Barnes (15 minutes away) serves its regular menu on New Year’s Eve but recommends booking well ahead for guaranteed seating.
All venues are over-18s only after 7pm, with most running until the early hours. Book ahead wherever possible, as New Year’s Eve in Putney tends to fill up quickly despite the lack of family options.
