World Bee Day

World Bee Day is a yearly event that highlights the vital role of bees and other pollinators in our ecosystem

At Fortnum’s, our love for honey is no secret, and safeguarding our cherished bee population is of a huge importance to us. That's why we proudly celebrate World Bee Day each year on the 20th May, recognising the valuable work of bees and beekeepers!

Our Rooftop Hives

Did you know? On our Piccadilly rooftop there are four stylish beehives standing at six feet high, almost twice the height of a normal beehive, each with a distinct design in a different architectural style – Roman, Mughal, Chinese and Gothic.

Over the last fifteen years, our bees have been busy producing honey so delicious that there's a waiting list for their produce – and what's more, we've recruited the efforts of more colonies across London, meaning our honeys really do provide a true taste of the city.
