EVENT INFORMATION

There is surely no tennis event quite so thrilling and watched the world over, as
Wimbledon. Take in the atmosphere of SW19 whilst you dine under The Raj
Tent, where we will be showing all the action on the big screen.

Wimbledon fun facts:
• It is the world’s oldest tennis tournament, established in 1877 and is the only Grand Slam event in the world played on grass.
• Up to 40,000 tennis balls will be used during the tournament. Yellow balls were first used in 1986 and will this year be collected by a total of 200 ball boys and girls who have all undergone a rigorous training programme.
• More than 27,000 kilos of English strawberries are likely to be eaten by spectators, topped by 7,000 litres of cream.
• The total prize money for this year’s championships has risen to £35 million (just shy of the £34.4 million on offer at the French Open.

Play commences at 1.00pm.

The Garden is open Monday to Saturday from 11.00am and 12 noon on Sunday.
