At noon on the 21st of August, Big Ben will fall silent for four years. Big Ben is one of the most iconic tourist attractions in the UK and the ringing of this famous bell will be dearly missed by locals and tourists alike.

Whilst we will all miss these trusted times, the restoration work that will be undertaken during this time is vital to ensure that Big Ben will still be working for generations to come. Big Ben started chiming 157 years ago with very few disruptions.

We really hope that you will be able to make the trip to London to hear this piece of British heritage ring, before falling silent for 1,460 days!
