It combines the quick service restaurant’s flame-grilled 100% beef Whopper patty with American cheese, tender pulled pork, BBQ sauce, tomatoes, lettuce, onions and gherkins in a warm, classic Whopper bun.

Last but not least is the Ciabatta Chicken Tendercrisp, which comes in the form of a succulent 100% chicken breast in a crispy coating, topped with roasted tomato sauce, Swiss cheese, lettuce, mayo and tomatoes, all wrapped up in a crispy ciabatta bun.

All burgers will be available from a recommended price point of £4.79** or £5.79** as part of the meal, and will be served in differentiated Party in the Park packaging to give customers a full experience of the theme.
