Make the most of your time in the glorious grounds of Blenheim Palace by starting your summer evening with a Fortnum & Mason picnic - the perfect way to relax, basking in front of the Palace and soaking up the pre-concert atmosphere while sharing and indulging in the very best seasonal food and drinks from Fortnum & Mason.

ABOUT THE PICNICS

This year, Fortnum & Mason will be the Official Picnic Partner of Blenheim Palace Festival. Crafted using the very best seasonal ingredients fresh from Fortnum’s famous Food Halls and packed with summer-ready tipples, four delicious picnics will be available for guests to enjoy.

Perfectly prepared for two people, The Fortnum’s Picnic and The Fortnum’s Garden Picnic (v) consist of a starter, a main, salads, a cheese plate, pudding and a bottle of wine, all served inside a Fortnum’s cool bag.

For a more indulgent experience, you can elevate your Picnic to The Fortnum’s Feast and The Fortnum’s Garden Feast (v). Also made for two people, they’re a deliciously decadent affair with an abundance of Fortnum’s fine food and a premium bottle of wine, all housed inside an iconic Fortnum’s hamper.

If you prefer your picnic on the sparkling side, you can upgrade to Fortnum’s Champagne or English Sparkling Rosé for a £35 supplement.

The picnics arrive fully plated in either a Fortnum’s cool bag or Fortnum’s hamper and include plates, cutlery, napkins and glasses. Very occasionally the contents of the picnics may be subject to change without prior notice. For any queries relating to allergen information, please contact the Concierge team at Fortnum & Mason via concierge@fortnumandmason.co.uk or 0207 465 8668.

Picnics can be added onto your order after you purchase your concert tickets.
