The pub industry could be in for an especially prosperous Easter thanks to the upcoming marriage of Prince William and Kate Middleton.

As we’re sure everyone knows by now, the couple will marry on Friday 29 April, creating a unique 4-day bank holiday weekend, and pubs are bound to be busy as the nation goes about celebrating the royal wedding.

It’s also possible that the secretary may deregulate trading hours over this period as was done at the Golden Jubilee, allowing pubs to stay open for longer and boosting trade even further.

We’re encouraging Admiral landlords to start thinking about how they can maximise takings over this important weekend - preparing the pub for a screening of the wedding and putting together a special menu will ensure will draw in customers in their droves.
