Warm up for Wimbledon

27 June 2024

It’s that time of year again – the Grand Slam returns to the iconic grass courts of Wimbledon at the start of July for two weeks of world-class tennis. Get ready for game, set and match with our guide on how to dress the part, where to watch and celebrate the momentous wins!

Don’t miss a game

Head to Hyde Park to catch all the action on the big screen as part of the free activities available at Open House. Settle into a deck chair and while away the hours watching Wimbledon with the sunshine and a picnic for company – what better way to spend the next two weeks?

Can’t take as much time away from shopping or working? Fear not – a large screen is in place at St James’ Market. An ideal spot for catching snippets of matches on your lunch break or if just simply walking by.

Champagne and strawberries

Oxford Street has a variety of restaurants but when it comes to Wimbledon it has to be centred around champagne and strawberries. Afternoon tea at the Bond St Tea Rooms offers an Italian twist on the classic afternoon tea offering, but fear not – champagne and strawberries still feature! Another fitting venue is Berners Tavern at The London Edition. The Early Berners set menu offers 2 courses at £29.50 or 3 for £35 allowing for a quick but classy meal to still be able to watch those thrilling games that extend into the evening. Just wanting a drink? Look no further than The Nest at The Treehouse Hotel. With panoramic views of the city, this is a perfect spot to toast to your favourite winners at the Laurent Perrier wildflower champagne terrace.
