How to celebrate Wimbledon like a true Brit

Posted 19 hours ago

From the courts to your living room

Wimbledon season kicks off Monday 29th June, and runs until Sunday 12th July, and we've got the best ways for you to join in and celebrate like a true Brit, directly from your living room sofa! 

The Ultimate Wimbledon Menu

You can't celebrate the oldest tennis tournament in the world without leaning into these classic British traditions:

🍓 Strawberries & Cream: The undisputed star of the tournament, with a tradition dating back to 1877. Enjoy the fresh strawberries, served with a generous pour of thick double cream!

🍹 The Pimm's Cup: This is the official taste of British summer. Mix Pimm's No.1 with lemonade, and garnish heavily with chopped cucumber, mint, orange slices and a handful of strawberries.

🥪 Afternoon Tea: If you're hosting a Wimbledon watch party, elevate the spread with finger sandwiches, warm scones slathered in clotted cream and jam, and a hot pot of English Breakfast tea.

Set the Scene

🌸 Dress the Part: Lean into the 'country garden' vibe with gingham tablecloths, floral tea sets and stylish straw hats.

🪻Embrace the colours: Decorate with traditional Wimbledon purple and green. If you want to go the extra mile, you can even put lavender around your living room.

Play Like a Champ 🎾

Challenge a friend to a game of tennis: It can be a good way to get into the tennis season and have a laugh with your mates! All you need is 2 tennis rackets, a ball and a suitable spot to play.
