Picnic At The Palace - Afternoon Tea

Come and join us this summer for a socially distanced outdoor experience in a setting like no other.

Enjoy the splendour of Blenheim Palace whilst feasting on our delicious picnic hampers, sipping on extravagant beverages and listening to beautiful, live music and comedy. What better way to reconnect to your loved ones and reignite your senses, alfresco style.

From Tuesday to Thursday, choose between a luxurious lunch time feast or an afternoon tea treat. On the weekends, we will be offering a delicious dinner hamper in addition to the day time offerings. Due to social distancing regulations, each sitting has been catered to accommodate groups of two, four or six people. Your picnic hamper is full of locally sourced, high quality food, perfect for sharing.

Our caravan bar will be serving all your favourite alcoholic and non-alcoholic tipples, including cocktails, champagne and draft beer. Each group will be assigned their own beautiful pergola with a choice of tables, chairs, deckchairs and a parasol. Your socially distanced set-up overlooks the spectacular Blenheim lake, whilst idyllically positioned to enjoy the live music and comedy on offer.

Haven't been able to get to a festival this summer? Fear not, as each sitting is accompanied by top live music performers. Lunchtime and afternoon tea sittings will have a range of talented musicians and singers. Thursday evenings will be comedy night, while on Friday and Saturday evenings we have some very exciting headline acts. To finish the week, we'llbe hosting a live Sunday jazz session.

There are still so many reasons to celebrate this summer, so we have beautifully crafted our 'special occasion packages' for those who wish to make their experience that extra-bit special!

Midsummer Nightcap hopes to see you at the 'Picnic at the Palace' this summer to enjoy a memorable picnic, one of summer's greatest pleasures, with the ones you love.
