Competition prize
1x Family ‘Palace and Play Pass’ (2 adults, 2 children) which gives visitors unlimited access to Blenheim Palace, Park and Gardens, and Adventure Play all year (worth £165)
Blenheim Palace is marking 75 years since first opening its doors to the public with an autumn of celebration, featuring ‘75 Things To Do’ and more across the Palace, Park and Gardens.
Among the highlights is Life Below Stairs, where costumed characters bring the hidden world of Victorian service to life in the Palace’s original kitchens and servant spaces. Visitors can also step inside The Duke’s Tour, a new immersive experience exploring private rooms, bedrooms and the behind-the-scenes world of household staff.
Art lovers can enjoy rare access to the Marlborough family’s Private Apartments through the Family Treasures Tour, or meet the expert Collections Team for an exclusive look at rarely seen gems, manuscripts and newly revealed casts.
Outdoors, autumn’s natural beauty takes centre stage with daily guided garden tours and the launch of a special Wellieness Walk in partnership with Holland Cooper.
Families can also hop aboard the new Estate Tractor & Trailer Tour, taking in scenic highlights including High Park’s ancient oaks and the famous Harry Potter tree.
For a view like no other, the limited-time Rooftop View experience invites visitors to climb high above the Palace as part of the ongoing roof restoration project.
Film fans can explore refreshed Lights, Camera, Action! trails featuring highlights from Napoleon and Bridgerton, while a new free multimedia app, Archie, lets visitors curate their own adventure through 300 years of untold stories.
With exhibitions, immersive tours, outdoor trails and autumn gardens to explore, Britain’s Greatest Palace promises an unforgettable season of discovery. All experiences are included in standard admission unless otherwise stated.
