About this event
The world famous and iconic Natural History Museum in south-west London is the stunning venue for the 2013 EIC National Dinner. We are delighted to invite our members and their guests to join us for a night of sumptuous food and fabulous entertainment under the watchful eye of the famous diplodocus.
The Central Hall at the heart of the museum is an example of Victorian architecture at its most magnificent. The EIC National Dinner is the perfect opportunity to view this beautiful building out of hours and without the crowds, all the while in the company of nearly 500 industry experts.
