Wimbledon to sell over 29,000kg of strawberries and 275,000 cups of pimms
Wimbledon fans will eat over 29,000kg of strawberries and drink 275,000 cups of Pimms, according to Sportscasting.com traders.
Over 500,000 tennis fans attended Wimbledon in 2023 and with temperatures expected to be high this year and the crowd needing cooling down – these odds are based on over 270,000 cups of Pimms drunk 12 months ago and Wimbledon reporting 1.92m strawberries are eaten each year.
Oddsmakers predict:
- Betting experts say over 29,000 kg of strawberries will be chomped at Wimbledon
- Pimms sales to exceed 275,000 cups over Wimbledon week, according to odds
- More than 25,000 bottles of Wimbledon champagne will be popped, say bookies

Sportscasting.com spokesman Andy Newton, reacted to our ‘2024 Wimbledon’ odds saying:
“During Wimbledon 2023 it was reported that over 530,651 fans passed through the famous SW19 gates and with a similar figure likely this year, food and drink sales will be sky-high.
“If just 5% of these tennis lovers buy a bottle of bubbly – this means the bookmaker’s 25,000+ prediction of champagne sales will be easily hit. While around half of the attendees will need to buy just one cup of Pimms to hit the 275k figure the oddsmakers are saying.
“However, the strawberry odds look juicy to me. According to the official Wimbledon site more than 38.4 tons of strawberries (1.9m) are sold each year. This equates to over 34,000kg – meaning we should certainly be ‘creaming’ up some of the 10/11 on offer for there to be over 29,000kg of the popular red fruit eaten.
