Summer Picnic Events
Go Forth and Feast
THE UK'S MOST ICONIC SUMMER EVENTS ARE NEARLY HERE, WHICH CAN ONLY MEAN ONE THING
Nothing sets off summer's starting pistol like a picnic from Fortnum & Mason. It's been this way for centuries and is a tradition we are particularly fond of. Our penchant for al fresco feasting is as strong as ever, with our picnics being exclusively delivered to the lawns, stalls and grounds of Hampton Court to Royal Ascot. Imagine yourself lazily reclining with a satisfied stomach and a glass of Champagne in hand. We would advocate that Fortnum's really is the only way to do it...
