Buckingham Palace has served as the official London residence of Britain's sovereigns since 1837. The State Rooms of the Palace are lavishly furnished with some of the greatest treasures from the Royal Collection and are open to visitors during the Annual Summer Opening in August and September.

For the first time ever, visitors will be able to experience the spectacle of the Palace’s Ballroom set up for a State Banquet.

For centuries magnificent banquets have been an integral part of royal ceremonial and the traditional way to mark significant events. Among the most important of these occasions is the State Banquet, held in honour of a visiting Head of State. This is the occasion when Her Majesty and other members of the Royal Family entertain around 160 specially invited guests on the first evening of a State Visit. During the course of her reign The Queen has held 94 State Banquets.

The horseshoe-shaped table traditionally used on such occasions will be dressed with a dazzling display of silver-gilt from the magnificent Grand Service, first used to celebrate the birthday of George III in 1811. Lavish buffet arrangements of jewelled cups, ivory tankards and chased dishes, sconces, shields and basins will be arranged along each side of the room.

In 2008, Buckingham Palace is open from 29 July – 29 September inclusive, from 09.45 to 18.00 daily, with the last admission at 15.45hrs.
