I always consider Polo in the Park to be the start of summer. It's always held on the first weekend of June (see my past posts here), and thus always marks the beginning of 'the season' in London. The whole point of Polo in the Park is that it's an opportunity for everyone to watch polo, it doesn't discriminate and you don't have to be a member or be 'in the know' to go. The crowd is very different from the likes of Cowdray and Ham (my favourite polo blog post I've ever written is the Ham one) but that's what makes it unique. It's right in the city and easy to get to. Unfortunately this year was a little overcast, but we still had a lot of fun!
