Description
This year SIAS is hosting its 84th Annual Dinner at Tobacco Dock. Experience the magic and opulence of the enchanted forest, get dressed up in your finest gowns and tuxedos and enjoy a night of fine dining and incredible entertainment in the heart of London.
This year's Annual Dinner will be held on Friday 25 November 2022 at Tobacco Dock, Tobacco Quay, Wapping Ln, London E1W 2SF, UK from 6.30pm onwards.
The night will include a sparkling reception, entertainment, a three-course meal and some extras to be revealed! Your ticket includes unlimited beer, wine and soft drinks.
Tickets go on sale on Monday 15th August. SIAS is offering ‘Early Bird’ ticket prices of £85 for a SIAS member and £110 for non-members.
Our event normally has 700 people attend. This year we have decided to sell tickets earlier in order to gauge demand and work out if the event is viable to run with reduced numbers or at all. If you buy a ticket and the event does not go ahead you will receive a refund.
After popular demand, we have also decided to showcase the FIFA World Cup England vs USA match happening that same day. A great way to kick-off the night!
SIAS is looking forward to seeing you for a truly unforgettable evening!
