Exclusive “Downton Abbey: The Exhibition” Afternoon Tea Offer Now Available

Special reduced-rate offer includes exhibition tickets and Downton Abbey-themed tea

 

 

PALM BEACH, Fla., Nov. 16, 2018 — Get transported to post-Edwardian England during a Downton-Abbey-inspired traditional afternoon tea at The Chesterfield Palm Beach, which is offering an exclusive package in partnership with “Downton Abbey: The Exhibition” throughout its six-month run in West Palm Beach.

 

Fans of NBC Universal International Studios’ beloved series get a double dose of “Downton Abbey” with this unique offer that combines discounted tickets to the exhibition with a traditional British-style afternoon tea at the hotel.

 

Viewers of “Downton Abbey” know afternoon tea was an integral part of the Crawley family’s daily routine. The Chesterfield Palm Beach is the perfect place to recreate that experience. The hotel exudes traditional English style and hospitality, and has offered traditional afternoon tea for decades. The Chesterfield’s special Downton Abbey-themed tea invites visitors to choose from a superb selection of loose-leaf teas and refreshing infusions, an irresistible array of delicious, freshly made finger sandwiches and indulgent sweets served on exquisite three-tiered pastry trays, and authentic, hand-baked British scones with lashings of clotted cream and lavish strawberry preserves. Traditional English shortbread is served at the end, bringing a “veddy British” close to the tea experience.

 

Downton Abbey: The Exhibition is appearing at CityPlace in West Palm Beach from November 10, 2018, and offers an inside peek into Carnival Films’ multi-award-winning global television phenomenon. Guests will be immersed in the fascinating social history and culture of the time period during which the show is set, and see iconic costumes and sets from its six-season run, including Mrs. Patmore’s kitchen and the servants’ quarters.

 

The “Downton Abbey: The Exhibition” Afternoon Tea offer costs $83.70 per person (taxes, fees and gratuities included) and includes afternoon tea between 1:00 p.m. and 5:00 p.m., plus an exhibition ticket that can be used any time. Participants do not have to be a guest of the hotel to take advantage of this special combination offer, and the Downton tea is also available without the exhibition tickets for $40 (plus tax and gratuities). For guests of the hotel, reduced-rate exhibition tickets are also available without the requirement of a tea experience.

 

In addition to The “Downton Abbey: The Exhibition” Afternoon Tea, the hotel offers a range of other afternoon teas: The Chesterfield Champagne Tea; the Scones Afternoon Tea; and the Little Prince and Princess Tea. A Victorian Tea Experience is available for groups of 15, by special request only.

 

“Downton Abbey: The Exhibition” will be located at CityPlace, 575 S. Rosemary Ave., West Palm Beach, FL 33401. It will open daily between 10:00 a.m. and 7:00 p.m., including Thanksgiving, Black Friday, Christmas Eve, Christmas Day and New Year’s Day.
