In honor of the upcoming royal wedding, New York City's Downton Abbey: The Exhibition is launching a series of events including royal-themed etiquette lessons.

On two key dates, the midtown exhibit space, which highlights the set and costumes of the beloved Masterpiece series, will serve as a classroom for Myka Meier to inform anglophiles about Royal Wedding etiquette, table manners, and the proper rules of dining. Meier will be stationed by the dining room set to answer any and all etiquette qualms.

Other special events in honor of Prince Harry and Meghan Markle's nuptials will take place throughout the month of May, and include fresh baked scones for visitors, mixology classes, various sweepstakes and giveaways, and guest speakers like royals expert Anne Chertoff.

See the full calendar of events right here.

While Downton Abbey: The Exhibition is temporary, it was recently extended through Labor Day due to high demand. More information, including how to buy tickets, is available over on DowntonExhibition.com.
