Chestertons Polo in the Park is the largest three-day polo and lifestyle event in the entire UK. Now in its 15th year, the tournament at Hurlingham Park is designed to increase spectator engagement through a faster, more accessible format.

The weekend commences on Friday with an international match featuring the England team, a prime setting for professional networking and social gatherings. Saturday is celebrated as Ladies Day, blending high-stakes tournament heats with a focus on sophisticated fashion and style. The event concludes on Sunday with Finals Day, which doubles as a welcoming family day featuring all sorts of children's activities and entertainment, as well as hosting the legendary Polo Day Party.

Beyond the sporting action, guests can explore a luxury shopping village and the Fulham Food Festival, with refreshments provided by the Champagne Pommery Garden and the Pimm's Bus.

As a cornerstone of the seasonal calendar, the multi-faceted festival gets the London summer off to a lively start. You can find out more and book tickets here.
