Blenheim Palace experiences in 2025

Blenheim Palace has announced new visitor experiences for 2025 which will only be available for a limited time due to the launch of its most ambitious restoration project to date. The historic roof project is a restoration that aims to preserve the architecture and safeguard the heritage of Blenheim Palace for generations to come.

Alongside the revolutionary restoration work commencing next year, three exclusive new experiences at Blenheim Palace will be live from Spring 2025. Roof Top View at Blenheim Palace will offer an all-new ticketed viewing platform experience, providing visitors with never seen before breathtaking views over the Estate.

In Life Below Stairs, for the first time visitors can go below the palace and step back in history to explore the hidden world of Blenheim Palace’s servants. The new Life Below Stairs experience will provide the opportunity to see the original palace kitchens where visitors can hear the sounds of the staff working as they prepare for an important royal visit.

In Family Treasures, visitors can witness never before seen treasures of the private apartments and follow in the footsteps of dukes, duchesses and their illustrious guests. For a deeper insight into the history of Blenheim Palace, the extended State Room Tours will offer a journey through some of the grandest rooms.

2025 will also see Blenheim’s renowned gardens undergo a stunning transformation with new features to be explored every season.

Blenheim Palace first opened its doors to the public 75 years ago to raise funds for essential roof conservation work. This pivotal £10.4M project is centred on restoring a significant section of the roof of Britain’s Greatest Palace, ensuring it remains resilient against the elements that threaten its historical integrity.
