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 />
