Well we have some royal recommendations for you too...

First off, what about one of the royal favourites with our tickets to Royal Ascot? Dress to impress, sip Pimms and Champagne, enjoy casual dining options or take your own picnic and set your blanket out on the Windsor Enclosure lawn against the backdrop of exhilarating races…don’t forget your hat!

Or what about the royal theatre event of the year, The Crown Jewels at the Garrick Theatre, a riotous new comedy based on the most unbelievable royal caper in British history. Charismatic and unpredictable Colonel Blood is planning the greatest heist of all time, stealing the Crown Jewels in plain sight. With a gang of misfits by his side, what could possibly go wrong? But Charles II can't afford a royal scandal, and no King likes people handling their Crown Jewels. Written by BAFTA-nominated creator of The Durrells and Men Behaving Badly, Simon Nye, and directed by multi-Olivier Award winner Sean Foley (Upstart Crow, The Ladykillers), it would be criminal to miss this raucous royal affair.
