Fly the London Eye with Hayley Westenra 

Join Hayley Westenra on the London Eye in a private capsule with 10 guests. Sip champagne and take in the stunning views while listening to Hayley’s beautiful voice.

Hayley Westenra began performing when she was just 6 years old and released her debut album Pure at the tender age of 16. It became the fastest-selling debut album from a classical artist, and reached the Top 10 of the pop charts in 11 countries.

Her popularity has brought many opportunities, including offers to perform for royalty and Heads of State – from Her Majesty the Queen and Prince Charles to President Bush and Tony Blair.  

Now is your chance to enjoy the beauty and purity of Hayley’s voice in an exclusive performance on the London Eye. You and 10 of your guests will join Hayley for a 30 minute rotation on the eye in your own private capsule. You’ll have the chance to chat to Hayley and hear her sing accompanied by a guitarist while enjoying amazing panoramic views of the city. A London Eye host will serve champagne and soft drinks during the rotation of the capsule.  

The prize includes:

  • The chance to listen and chat to Hayley Westenra in a private London Eye capsule.
  • One Private Capsule for one rotation (c.30 minutes) for 11 guests.
  • Fast Track entry, 4 bottles of Pommery Champagne, water and juice served by a London Eye host.
