Since Buckingham Palace is only open to visitors during the summer months, you can imagine tickets can be difficult to come by.

Booking Buckingham Palace tickets in advance is nearly always required, not only to avoid the crowded lines, but to ensure access to the King's private residence on your schedule.

Choose the right Buckingham Palace tickets for you:

• Entry tickets to Buckingham Palace include access to the State Rooms – lavishly decorated public rooms in Buckingham Palace for important royal events
