Blenheim Palace has announced that English Sparkling Wine producer Nyetimber is bringing its beautifully reimagined 1968 Routemaster Bus to the UNESCO World Heritage Site.

For a limited time only, from Saturday 6th to Sunday 7th April 2024, at 12 noon, 2 pm, and 4 pm, visitors can take in the spectacular views at Britain’s Greatest Palace aboard the iconic Nyetimber Bus whilst enjoying a tutored tasting session consisting of three glasses of Nyetimber English Sparkling Wine for £40.00 per person.*

During the residency, Blenheim Palace visitors can enjoy a glass of award-winning Nyetimber English Sparkling Wine either aboard the bus between 11 am and 5 pm or inside the newly refurbished orangery.

The Nyetimber Bus will be stationed in the Courtyard outside the Orangery at Blenheim Palace, the perfect location for a sparkling pit stop!

Heather Carter, Managing Director at Blenheim Palace, said: “We look forward to welcoming the vintage Nyetimber Bus, which will look and feel right at home here at Blenheim Palace given the synergy between our two brands.

“We’re always looking for ways to excite and inspire our visitors and offer them incredible new experiences, and we guarantee that this is one not to be missed!”

In addition to the daytime residency, there is the opportunity for exclusive evening hire of the Nyetimber Bus during its time at Blenheim Palace for larger groups and businesses searching for a unique experience.

This Nyetimber experience at Blenheim Palace is in celebration of the sparkling partnership between the two quintessentially British brands.

In addition to Nyetimber being served across the Palace and at various activations and events, the duo recently hosted a successful event to celebrate the reopening of the renowned Blenheim Palace Orangery following vital £2 million restoration works and a complete interior transformation.
