MINT Polo In The Park

Be a part of this unique London lifestyle event which blends fashion, retail and gastronomy with thrilling, high-octane polo.

For the fifth consecutive year, Hurlingham Park in Fulham will play host to one of the most hotly anticipated sporting and social events in London’s calendar; on June 7th, 8th and 9th the hallowed turf will thunder with the hooves of world class polo ponies. Enjoy a day of entertainment at the spiritual home of polo, which is conveniently located in central London. On the field, teams from around the globe will compete to be crowned champions of MINT Polo in the Park 2013.

This year’s event will guarantee a quintessentially British atmosphere fused with the truly international flavour of the sport, courtesy of teams from Sydney, Abu Dhabi, Moscow, Delhi, the polo stronghold of Buenos Aires, plus the home team and 2012 Champions from London. It is the perfect way to kick off the summer social season with friends, family, clients or colleagues.

Eat, drink, shop, socialise, enjoy world-class hospitality and see thrilling polo with the thousands of guests who return year after year to this multi award-winning event.

Winner of the 2010 and 2011 London Sport Attraction of the Year at The London Lifestyle Awards, MINT Polo in the Park is the leading outdoor polo and lifestyle event in Central London. It is regarded highly for its innovative format and provides the perfect introduction for those less well-acquainted with the sport.

2013 Features:
We are delighted to announce a range of off-field features, entertainment and hospitality areas. Some are brand new additions to the event and others are the welcome return of favourites from previous years.

Gourmet Food Court
The Gourmet Food Court is a new pitch-side addition which offers an abundance of fresh produce from Britain and abroad. Providing variety and great value food, the Gourmet Food Court gives you the opportunity to sample some of the finest fresh produce and delicious summer party favourites throughout the three-day event.

The Pommery Champagne Garden
The Pommery Champagne Garden gives spectators first-class service and spectacular views of the polo. Relax on the deck chairs, challenge your friends to a game of table football or simply sit back in the salubrious surroundings and sip on a glass of vintage Pommery.

Stella Artois Continental Garden
Stella Artois has become our Official Beer Partner for 2013 and will bring their brand’s cultural heritage and continental elegance to the sidelines of MINT Polo in the Park. Sample their growing range of premium lager and cider in the sophisticated, salubrious surroundings. The Stella Artois bar will provide the ‘perfect pour’, which means you will enjoy your beer exactly as it should be.

The Polonesia Tiki Bar
Back by popular demand, our ‘Tiki’ themed bar has been enlarged and sits proudly alongside the hospitality enclosures. The popular cocktail menu mixes the traditional with the more adventurous and the pitch-side location means you won’t miss a thing.

Crown & Corgi Pub
A proper British pub is clearly an important addition to such a quintessentially British sporting and social event. The Crown & Corgi provides a fantastic vantage point from which to get close to the on-field action. In addition the bar has been extended from last year so that you can spend less time ordering drinks and more time enjoying them.

The PIMM’S Bus
The iconic double decker bus will provide the centre piece of the white picket fenced PIMM’s garden. Their expert mixologists provide you with possibly the most revered and established summer party beverage, which no British social occasion would be complete without. Recline on the deck chairs and soak up the very best of British.

Luxury Shopping Village
Featuring over 40 exhibitors selling a wide range of quality products, the Luxury Shopping Village is a wonderful showcase of products you might not find on the high street. From hats to Argentine leather goods and bespoke jewellery to exquisite works of art and some of the finest accessories for town and country, our retailers are ready to help you find that extra special souvenir of your day.
