Set at Glyndebourne, opera destination par excellence, this world-class festival<br />
puts on annual performances of six major operas, and attracts not only die-hard<br />
opera fans but also substantial numbers of pleasure-seekers. The dress code<br />
is black tie, and performances begin in the afternoon, allowing for a ‘Long<br />
Interval’ in which audience members retire to the lush green lawns of the<br />
Glyndebourne grounds to feast on strawberries, champagne, and all manner of<br />
picnic delicacies.<br />

First held in 1839, Henley Royal Regatta occurs every summer in June, with<br />
vast numbers of native and international rowers traveling to rural Oxfordshire<br />
to compete in this classic boat race. The standards are incredibly high, with<br />
some participants going on to events such as the Olympics. Watch the boats go<br />
head to head from the enclosure, where Pimms flows freely and strawberries<br />
and cream are a must. Keith Prowse, event organizer, offers a range of Henley<br />
hospitality packages to give the whole experience that little something extra.<br />
