The Chap Olympiad, London 17/07/2010
Running annually from 2005, the Chap Olympiad has become one of Britain's most eccentric event. Taking place in Bedford Square, a beautiful Georgian garden in London, the Chap Olympiad is a delightful day of themed sporting events from lobster fancing to cucumber sandwich discurs! Hosted by The Chap Magazine (a monthly journal celebrating tweeds, hat doffing and martinis) and beside the hilarious events, the Chap Olympiad is a unique eye-catching spectacle welcoming hundreds of participants where elegance meets quirky panache. In fact, all Olympiads guests and participants are encouraged to come in period-dress, enjoy the old-fashioned activities and entertainment such as drinking pimm's, real ales as well as jive and charleston dancing
