ArcelorMittal Orbit

• Your ArcelorMittal orbit tickets let you stroll across the Welcome Pavilion to learn more about the architects and the history of the tower.
• Discover about the legacy of London 2012 and the prospects of Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park.
• Enjoy breathtaking panoramas of London and use the dynamic touch screens to approach the city's well-known sites up close by downloading the app.
• From here, one can see up to 20 miles away, and the skyline of London includes the Crystal Palace antenna to the south, Wembley Stadium to the west, Alexandra Palace to the north, and Epping Forest to the east. Five of London's top football stadiums are visible to soccer fans.
• Before riding The Slide, consider making your best look at the photo location. Don't forget to post your photos on Facebook or Instagram for everyone to see.
• As you pull back underneath and gaze up at the enormous 84-ton cylinder dome, you can sense the echoes.
• Buy tickets for ArcelorMittal Orbit and get yourself a souvenir from the ArcelorMittal gift shop to keep memories of visiting this amazing tower.
• With the help of two enormous inverted mirrors by Anish Kapoor, you can flip the skyline and experiment with the sculpture’s hushed gallery soundscapes. The elevators will take you 80 meters up to the observation decks, where you can enjoy the spectacular perspective of London. The world's tallest and longest slide is then available for you to dare your friends and family to; this adventure is not for the faint of heart.
• Your ArcelorMittal Orbit tickets also let you ride Carsten Höller's The Slide's turns, falls, and spirals. It descends for 40 seconds and makes 12 loops all around the sculpture.
• Remember that after riding the world's biggest tube slide, you can return to the top of the ride to take in the breathtaking skyline views, flip the world on its head in the amazing concave mirrors, and savor the acoustics if you decide to descend the stairs.
• When it's time to leave, you can descend the 455 stairs with a custom composed London soundscape backdrop, or you can use the elevators to reach the ground level.
