Cel ebrati ng ten yea rs of Salon Pri vé

Salon Privé has long been regarded as one of the best events on the automotive & social calendars; this year, as we celebrate our tenth anniversary, it’s about to get even better as we move to ‘Britain’s Greatest Palace’, Blenheim Palace.

A visit to Blenheim Palace is an experience in itself but combine that with a collection of the rarest and most valuable modern and classic supercars openly displayed on the lawn, champagne, lobster luncheon, followed by afternoon tea and it’s unforgettable.

Moving to Blenheim Palace will allow us to further refine and develop our event, in turn providing you and your guests with an even greater variety of spectacular dining opportunities as well as automotive and luxury displays. The event will remain exclusive as it always has been, with limited numbers of guests, ensuring that everyone thoroughly enjoys their visit and as usual, our Salon Privé staff all visible in their blue polo shirts will be on hand to help in any way they can.

‘Br itain’s gre at est pa l a ce’

As your guests enter Blenheim Palace through the Woodstock gate the beauty of the Palace, the lake and bridge will never fail to impress. This view, according to Lord Randolph Churchill, is ‘the finest view in England’. Designated as a World Heritage Site, Blenheim Palace offers a unique and truly inspiring venue to host any prestigious fine dining experience.

One of England’s largest houses, it was built between 1705 and 1722 and was designated a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1987. It was designed by the famous architect Sir John Vanbrugh in the rare English Baroque style, and is surrounded by over 2,000 acres of ‘Capability’ Brown landscaped Parkland and stunning Formal Gardens, which represent a perfect example of the English landscape garden movement and style. Famed as the birthplace of Sir Winston Churchill, Blenheim Palace is regarded as ‘Britain’s Greatest Palace’.
