Get the adrenaline pumping with a ride on The Slide at the ArcelorMittal Orbit.

Whizz down the UK’s tallest public artwork with a 40-second ride on the tallest and longest tunnel slide in the world. Twist and turn your way down the sculpture at speeds of up to 15 miles per hour (24km per hour) as you glimpse London’s skyscape passing by through sections of light.

Anish Kapoor, creator of the ArcelorMittal Orbit, has worked in collaboration with artist Carsten Höller to create the 76m (250ft) high and 178m (584ft) long tunnel slide that intertwines with his Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park sculpture. The slide is made up of 12 twists and turns, including a tight corkscrew named the bettfeder, and ends in a thrilling 50m straight run to the ground.

Tickets for the slide are in addition to standard admission to the ArcelorMittal Orbit.

Standard admission to the ArcelorMittal Orbit: adult ticket £10, child ticket (4 to 16 years old) £5, senior and student ticket £7, family ticket £26, children under 4 years old go free.

You must be least 1.3m in height and under 149kg in weight to ride the slide.
