Gala Dinner

On the evening of the 30th April come and experience the renowned 1Spatial hospitality at this year’s Conference Gala Dinner at the ultra modern, contemporary Radisson SAS Hotel, with the unique Wine Tower Bar. The evening entertainment presents a more informal side to the conference, and a chance to socialise and unwind with colleagues old and new.

The evening will begin with a relaxing cocktail reception in the famous wine tower bar. Standing at over 13m tall, and home to 4,000 bottles of wine, the stars of the show are Wine Angels that ‘fly’ up and down, retrieving bottles of wine for the discerning connoisseur.

The gala dinner itself will feature a three-course haute cuisine menu, following the dinner delegates will be taken on a fantistic journey by our guest speaker, intrepid exporer Monty Halls. Monty Halls was catapulted into the pubic eye in 2002 when he led a multi-national team of adventurers and scientists on an expedition to discover the ruins of a lost civilisation beneath the sea off the Southeast coast of India. As a result, Monty has quickly become one of the rising stars in British exploration.

Moving further into the evening, delegates can try their hand at the traditional 1Spatial casino. Gamble away to your heart’s content, and choose whether to go for broke or steadily build up a fortune to claim the coveted winner’s prize at the end of the evening.

Dress for the evening will be smart casual.
N.B. The gala dinner will only be accessible for delegates that are attending the full Conference. Single day conference passes do not include admittance to the gala dinner.
