The View from the Shard
An Overview of The Shard
The View is situated at the top of The Shard, Western Europe’s tallest building, on floors 68, 69 and 72 and is almost twice the height of any other viewing platform in London.
It is the only place to experience 1,000 years of history with views of up to 40 miles across one of the greatest cities on earth. The View offers a triple-height viewing gallery on level 69, with unrivalled 360 degree views. Guests may also ascend to the highest accessible point of The Shard, level 72, an open-air viewing platform exposed to the elements and sounds of the city below, for the chance to gaze up to the shards of glass that form the top of the sculptural building as they disappear into the sky. The View from The Shard is a truly unique venue for London and a jaw- dropping setting for a wide range of exclusive event.
