Set against an immersive forest-inspired backdrop, the evening will transport you into a truly special setting where you’ll enjoy a delicious dinner, the presentation of this year’s prestigious Industry Awards, and plenty of time to relax, connect, and celebrate with peers.

Guiding us through the night will be the legendary Brian Blessed, hosting the evening with his unmistakable voice and captivating storytelling, bringing humour, warmth, and unforgettable tales to the heart of the celebration.

With entertainment details still to be revealed, one thing is already certain: this will be a standout highlight of the conference. Dress to impress, raise a glass, and celebrate the successes of our industry in true IRMS style, it’s a night not to be missed.

Dress Code: Black Tie Optional – Enchanted Forest Elegance
Inspired by the timeless beauty and mystique of Celtic woodlands, we invite guests to wear formal attire that feels comfortable and confident. Options might include tuxedos, suits, gowns, jumpsuits, or elegant cocktail wear. Rich jewel tones, greens, and subtle nature-inspired touches will complement the evening beautifully.

The theme is interpretative rather than costume-based, so there’s no need to buy anything new – just wear what makes you feel your best. Participation in the theme is optional, but smart dress is appreciated for all guests.
