Celebrate Afternoon Tea Week 2026

10–16 August 2026

There’s something rather special about afternoon tea. It’s not just about the perfectly brewed pot of tea, warm scones and irresistible cakes – it’s about pressing pause for an hour or two and spending quality time with the people who matter most.

Running from 10–16 August, Afternoon Tea Week is the perfect excuse to catch up with friends, treat a loved one, celebrate a special occasion or simply indulge in a little well-deserved “me time”. And the best part? Calories don’t count during Afternoon Tea Week… or at least that’s what we’re telling ourselves!

To help you celebrate, our wonderful partners at Virgin Experience Days are offering an exclusive 20% discount on their fantastic selection of afternoon tea experiences across the UK.

The beauty of buying an afternoon tea experience is that you don’t have to enjoy it during Afternoon Tea Week. Once purchased, you’ll have 12 months to book and enjoy your experience at a time that suits you.

Claiming your exclusive discount is easy

Simply click our Explore Afternoon Teas button below, then:

• Select the Book Now button on your chosen experience.
• Copy the discount code from the pop-up window.
• Paste the code where prompted at checkout.

As an added bonus, the same 20% discount can also be used across Virgin Experience Days’ huge range of experiences, making it a great opportunity to save on days out, short breaks and memorable gifts too.

Please note that some experiences may already be at their lowest promotional price, so the discount code may not apply to every product.

Whether you’re planning a luxurious afternoon tea in a grand hotel, a quirky themed experience or a countryside escape with tea and cake, we hope you have a wonderful Afternoon Tea Week.

However you’re celebrating, we hope Afternoon Tea Week brings plenty of laughter, good conversation and, of course, a generous helping of cake. Have a wonderful week!
