About Blenheim Palace
What a visit includes
Inside, tours of the State Rooms show the Palace's art and furnishings, and there is an exhibition about Winston Churchill. Outdoors, the Formal Gardens and the wide Parkland, landscaped by Capability Brown, offer walking trails and long views. Families tend to head for the Adventure Play area. Events and exhibitions change through the seasons, from historical displays such as Blueprints of Power to seasonal festivals.
The building itself is a Baroque landmark. No other English country house that is neither royal nor a bishop's residence is called a palace.

Tickets are bought online in advance. Any day ticket can be turned into an Annual Pass at no extra cost. A single visit then becomes a year of unlimited return trips to the Palace, Park and Gardens. Pass holders also pay less in the shops and restaurants on the estate. Tickets are not refundable, though they can be exchanged for another date.
Reduced entry is offered to several groups. Students can verify through Student Beans or show an official student card. NHS workers get a reduction on annual passes, and military personnel and Blue Light Card holders are also catered for.
