A celebration of British summertime, inspired by the reigns of two Elizabeths!

Few traditions capture the spirit of British summertime quite like the picnic - a leisurely yet refined pastime deeply rooted in the country’s history. Once enjoyed primarily by the aristocracy, picnicking became a symbol of genteel pleasure, particularly under the influence of Queen Elizabeth I’s lavish celebrations and Queen Elizabeth II’s fondness for garden parties and afternoon teas.

Nestled within the historic Hyde Park, once reserved for royalty and now a backdrop to sun-dappled afternoons shared by all, InterContinental London Park Lane proudly stands on the very site of Queen Elizabeth II’s childhood home. It is right here that these royal traditions find a contemporary expression.

Our Royal Picnic Afternoon Tea is a tribute to this enduring legacy. Blending the timeless fun of picnicking with the tradition of afternoon tea, it invites guests to savour a uniquely British experience shaped by centuries of royal customs and summertime celebrations.
