Home to the Dukes of Marlborough since 1705, Blenheim Palace was designated a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1987.

Set in more than 2,000 acres of ‘Capability’ Brown landscaped park and gardens, it was designed by Vanbrugh in the Baroque style and is also the birthplace of one of Britain’s most famous leaders, Sir Winston Churchill.

With more than 300 years of history and one of the most significant collections in Europe, the Palace offers a rich cultural experience. Visitors can enjoy a sensational year, jam-packed with unmissable events and exhibitions, including the Food Festival, Flower Show, Jousting Tournament and Christmas at Blenheim Palace (excludes Festive Light Trail), all included with an Annual Pass.

Looking for your next family day out? Head to Adventure Play, where big and little explorers can climb, slide, jump, whizz, and play to their hearts content.

Enjoy fine dining in the elegantly refurbished Orangery Restaurant, a relaxed sit-down lunch in the Stables Café, or a quick bite at the Oxfordshire Pantry. After a fun-filled day in Adventure Play, tuck into a freshly made pizza from the Walled Garden Pizzeria.
