All passengers will be given a free Boarding Pass flyer identifying places of music and cultural interest and great places to stop off for lunch, dinner, a quick coffee break or some retail therapy.

You will also be enlightened to some of Richmond's amazing cultural history too. Historically, Richmond was a residence of the English monarchy as well as a popular riverside resort and place of entertainment. Richmond Bridge (1777) is the oldest bridge spanning the Thames within Greater London and sits alongside a riverside development that evokes memories of the 18th and 19th centuries.

Richmond benefits from a timeless charm more akin to a village than a town. Henry VII named Richmond after his favourite Earldom, Richmond in Yorkshire and the gateway of his magnificent Palace, favoured by Elizabeth I, still remains on Richmond Green. The view from the top of Richmond Hill, over the Terrace Gardens and across Petersham meadows and the River Thames beyond has been a source of inspiration for artists and poets throughout the years and was protected by an Act of Parliament in 1902. Beyond the Hill lies the 2,500 acre Richmond Park enclosed by King Charles I in the 17th century as a favoured hunting ground, where large herds of red and fallow deer wander freely.

Also look out for our special guest ticket inspectors who will be able to sign autographs and tell you first hand stories of their musical experiences.
