We are so excited to celebrate Tate Modern’s 25th Anniversary with you.
The Gala will be an extraordinary evening designed by Creative Director Christopher Woods, celebrating art and artists, with dinner, followed by musical performance from very special secret guests.
The Turbine Hall will be transformed, using sound, light and projections to immerse our guests in the history of Tate Modern. It will be unlike any other dinner we have held before.
Food is by legendary chef Ruthie Rogers, of London’s River Cafe. There will be an opportunity over dinner to buy some unique Tate experiences.
We look forward to seeing you.
