Celebrating its 22nd anniversary this year and often described as, “One of the highlights of the summer social Season,” The Boodles, has, in recent years made a habit of attracting some of the biggest names in tennis, while offering guests the unique chance of an opportunity to get up close and personal with the players.

It is hosted within Stoke Park’s stunning 300-acre estate in the Buckinghamshire countryside, perhaps the most picture-perfect setting in the English tennis scene. It also has an intimate purpose built stadium of only 2,000 and with no seat further than ten metres from the grass court, The Boodles allows you to be breathtakingly close to the action!

The Boodles is truly a unique event and the most lavish warm-up for The Championships at Wimbledon – truly a one-of-a-kind entertainment experience. It is a heady mix of high-calibre tennis featuring Wimbledon stars, combined with a day of unmatched hospitality on the manicured lawns of Stoke Park’s 17th century estate.

It has a fun English garden party atmosphere, with world-class tennis being played in intimate and beautiful surroundings. Whether a hospitality guest, or a stadium pass ticket holder, The Boodles is a wonderful experience and is the perfect opportunity to socialise in an exclusive fashion in the midst of the world’s finest athletes in the heart of the British Summer Social Season.

With an exclusive list of official sponsors, such as Patek Philippe, Laurent Perrier and the established status of their title sponsor, Boodles, guests will experience the luxury and service that has become so synonymous with these brands of excellence.
