10th anniversary surprise

It's our 10th anniversary in April and I have booked a hotel in London for 2 days for a surprise. I'm hoping to book tickets to a show while we are there too. We didn't have an honeymoon and the only holiday we have had since getting married is with family once, so no time alone.
Hubby knows nothing about this but I will need to tell him a bit nearer the time. Can anyone think of a nice way to 'present' his surprise to him other than just saying 'we're off to London'??

Maybe work it round the show. If it's lionking, wrap a ticket in a lionbar etc. I once booked a trip to Rome and put the tickets in a pizza box has ha.Forty and fabulous, well that's what my cards say....0

I bought my hubby tickets to see dara o'briain, and bought him the book, then did a faked hand written invitation to go see the show and stay at a swanky hotel after0

Fill a box with clues, London Bus, A-Z of London, something related to the show?0

When I took my OH to St Andrews for his birthday, I made a certificate all designed with pics of us around the outside and then an itinerary with everything I had booked, I had said to him to take the time off work so he knew I'd planned a surprise but not what it was.
So the itinerary said something like "Friday - train to Dundee then bus to St Andrews, check in at X 4 star hotel, dinner at Y restaurant followed by drinks. Saturday, Visit to the golf museum, gold lesson at 3pm, dinner at Z restaurant and drinks. Sunday, round of golf" and completely by accident the stuff we were doing got better as you got to the end so as he was reading it his voice was getting more and more excited lol.
