The 2024 Varsity Matches at our Society’s Suite

Thursday, 9th May 2024

Tickets can be purchased at the bottom of this page

Members: £65
Guests: £67

Numbers are limited to 36 and tickets go quickly, so do book early. All attending members may invite up to three guests.

The Society’s Lord’s Suite Party is one of the highlights of our calendar, and again we will be spending a whole spring’s day in our own private box in the Tavern Stand of the global home of cricket, overlooking the Main Ground and giving first class views of the action. We have both indoor and balcony seating plus a dedicated member of Lord’s staff serving us tea, coffee, soft drinks, wine and beer – all included in your ticket price.

2022’s event was to be the last, but thankfully the powers that be had a change of heart and Lord’s will be hosting this long established tie for at least another four years. In a change to previous years, this spring there will instead be Twenty20 matches for both men and women on the Main Ground. As always we approach this event with huge enthusiasm and confidently expect to triumph on the day. We have said that before of course…but this time it really will happen.

Using our suite as your base, wander around Lord’s at will, watch both matches, visit the shops and buy lunch if you wish, or bring your own picnic and join us in the Coronation Garden under the trees at half time.

Dress code is simply “smart casual” – no jeans, trainers, t-shirts or flip-flops please. Lord’s does not insist on jacket and tie but men may come in their emblazered glory if they wish.

The matches start at 10:30am. Tickets will be sent to you in advance via email.

Entrance is from 10.00am by the Grace Gate, St John’s Wood Road, on the South West Corner of the Ground, postcode: NW8 8QN. Nearest tubes are St John’s Wood, Warwick Avenue, Marylebone and Baker St. Buses: 13, 82, 113, 139, 187, 189, and 274.

*Only members of the Cambridge Society of London (and their guests) may book tickets.  If you are not currently a member and would like to become one, please visit our enrolment page.
