Fun activity and very forgiving for the unexperienced
Handy location just a short walk from Stratford station. The team were super helpful and guided us through the whole process. It was a fun activity to do and the end piece looked great despite having zero previous experience and generally not being skilful in arts & crafts.

The best way to spend an afternoon!
Definitely recommend the two hour experience! We had a great time as a group of colleagues together. The flower is beautiful and a fun challenge.

Super fun glass flower workshop!
We did the 1-hour taster workshop and it was really fun to try something new and have a fun piece to bring home. The staff did a great job explaining the process and walking through safety instructions. Definitely recommend if you want to try something new and crafty with a partner or friend(s)!

Great Experience
The directions from Stratford Train Station were very easy to follow taking note of every junction and turn. We walked from the station to the venue in less than 15 minutes. Upon arrival we made our way to the third floor and along the corridor and found the unit we needed with no wrong turns or hiccups along the way. Our session was booked for 2:30pm and we arrived at 2:10pm and didn’t have long to wait. We went into the room at 2:15pm where we were welcomed by the staff members who were friendly and welcoming. They checked us in and gave us each a branded apron for protection from the craft we had chosen. We then had a few minutes to choose which project we wanted to try. For ease of the demonstration it was recommended that we both choose the same project, which we were happy to do. We were then seated at the comunal table and had our own tools and lamp to work with. After being shown what to do for each step, we set to it. The staff members were happy to answer any questions we had and if we needed another demonstration they were happy to assist. We both felt very comfortable and were very happy with the time we’d chosen. We selected the 2 hour session, which was ample time to get our whole project completed. After we had finished, the project was set, after it had cooled down, and were gifted a small plant pot to showcase our design. From start to finish we felt at ease, all safety concerns were explained to us and the friendliness of the staff and their professionalism and passion for their craft was greatly appreciated. Would definitely recommend this craft activity to anyone who is looking for a hands on experience with friends, family, or couples on a date. Thank you to everyone at FirePetal Studios. A fantastic experience.

give it a try
Not quite beginner level. Maybe an easy intermediate. I was completely brand new, never having done anything like this. I felt a bit behind. The instructor was clearly very skilled and very nice, although this did not necessarily translate into the beginner instruction i think i needed. Others in the class seemed more advanced and instructor was easily able to meet them where they were at. Overall, a good experience and I would try again. The 3hr class would have been more beneficial. Definitely do 2hr at the minimum. 1hr is simply not enough time for anything. Also this class was a challenge to find, especially given train delays and reroutes required, i was about 10 minutes behind. I tried to call number provided with no luck. If another shop owner would not have given me access to the building I would have missed the class completely.

Lampwork Glass Workshop Experience in London: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for London.
How much does Lampwork Glass Workshop Experience in London cost?
+
Prices start at $66 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in London usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Lampwork Glass Workshop Experience in London take?
+
Plan for about 2 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in London is not rushed.
Is Lampwork Glass Workshop Experience in London worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 64 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.9/5 across 10 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in London, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Lampwork Glass Workshop Experience in London?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Lampwork Glass Workshop Experience in London suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 2-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Lampwork Glass Workshop Experience in London?
+
Around 4 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in London can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in London and add a light layer if any part of the 2-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Lampwork Glass Workshop Experience in London start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central London within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in London?
+
London's best attractions split cleanly: the museums are free and need no booking, so the paid market is about views, theatre and getting out of the city for a day. That makes value scoring unusually important here, and the Outty Ranking penalises anything charging premium prices for access you could get for nothing. On Outty we rank every London experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include The Great British Rock and Roll Walking Tour, Soho Music & Historic Pubs Tour, London Small Group Tour of Historical Pubs. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit London?
+
May to September for long evenings, December for the Christmas markets. Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in London?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
What is included in Lampwork Glass Workshop Experience in London?
+
Included: Admission fees. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.
Where is the meeting point for Lampwork Glass Workshop Experience in London?
+
Once you arrive at Stratford Workshops, enter the building and follow the internal signage. Take the stairs or lift up to the 3rd floor and continue following the unit signs to Unit 341 (FirePetal Studio) Hotel pickup is not included, so plan your own transport and arrive 15 minutes early.
What languages is Lampwork Glass Workshop Experience in London offered in?
+
It runs in English. Pick your language when choosing a date and time, as not every departure runs in every language.
Will I get instant confirmation and a mobile ticket for Lampwork Glass Workshop Experience in London?
+

Is Lampwork Glass Workshop Experience in London wheelchair or stroller accessible?
+
