- Why this month: June gives you open gardens, long evenings, and the start of the palace's summer concert mood.
- Best time: Late afternoon into evening
- Book by: 2–3 weeks ahead for concert dates
- Crowds: Moderate, rising on sunny weekends
- Walk the formal gardens, then stay for a June concert when the light lingers well past dinner.
- Don't miss: The garden views near sunset when the palace façade softens in the evening light
- Insider tip: Take Tram 17 out and avoid midday heat; the grounds feel better after 4pm.
