Since its inception, the Boodles has turned into a lifestyle event featuring British luxury brands such as Boodles, Veuve Clicquot and H.R. Owen. Attendances are strictly limited to 1,900 people per day to ensure every guest has a view of both the tennis and the jewelry on display. The tournament was cancelled in 2020 and 2021 because of the COVID-19 pandemic in the United Kingdom. The tournament was also cancelled in 2022 due to renovations at Stoke Park. It is set to return on June 20, 2023.
