London SKY GARDEN: how far in advance can you book free tickets?

With a partner, write a short email to book free tickets for our group on Wednesday April 3rd 2019.

This is the email I sent:

Dear Sir, Madam,

From April 1-4 2019 I am visiting London with my group of students from the Netherlands. We would very much like to visit your Sky Garden. However, I can’t seem to make a booking that far ahead.

Or can I? I would love to hear from you about the possibilities!

Kind regards,

Renny van der Sleen

Dear Guest,
