Description

Join us for an unforgettable evening as the AIA UK hosts its End-of-Summer Soirée at the elegant Cholmondeley Room and Terrace at the House of Lords. This exclusive space, rarely open to the public, showcases the timeless Victorian grandeur of original Charles Barry and Augustus Pugin designs—the master architects behind much of the iconic Palace of Westminster.

Enjoy a spectacular setting overlooking the Thames, with sweeping views from the London Eye to Lambeth Bridge. Sip wine and cocktails on the terrace, savour delicious canapés, and mingle with colleagues and friends in one of London’s most historic and atmospheric venues.

This special evening is generously sponsored by Herman Miller, who are offering guests the chance to win a legendary Aeron Chair—plus a few delightful surprises throughout the night.

Expect great music, warm conversation, fabulous food, and two hours of complimentary wine, beer, and soft drinks—all in a remarkable setting you won’t soon forget.
