Tower of London- Ceremony of the Keys Tickets for September

A reminder that Ceremony of the Keys Tickets for September will be released tomorrow, 1 August.

This month they are being released at 1600 (4pm) UK time, so people in the United States do not need to set their alarm clocks for the middle of the night, even on the West Coast.

Thank you! I have my reminder set for tickets late Nov-early Dec. but extra reminders are always good for me!

Thank you--OF COURSE I need to be in the car heading for a doctor's appointment (if it were work I'd just show up late!) at precisely 8 am, so I'm going to see what I can do--I'll have 4 nights in September. I already intend to visit the Tower, as always--this time I need to meet the newest raven, Rex!!

ETA—-I did it!!! Got in the online queue at 8 am, huge wave of dismay when it said approximately 40 minute wait, and I chose to be notified via email when it was my turn, then I drove to my 9 am appointment and sure enough, sitting in the parking lot at 8:40 I got in and got my preferred day, 9/21. I am positively giddy with glee 😉

I remember the days when all you had to do was write to them and give them several dates you were available. They sent you the tickets back in the self-addressed envelope you provided. The only hardship was having to buy an international stamp for the envelope. :)
