Event Summary

With 20,000 daily visitors to the Natural History Museum, it is no mean feat to transform this iconic venue after the doors close each evening into a world-class event space within just one hour.

In summer 2017 a grand reception event was hosted to celebrate the re-opening of the Natural History Museum's largest event space Hintze Hall. The event revealed the hall's brand new resident, Hope the 25.2m Blue Whale Skeleton. The task of organising the event was undertaken by the Museum’s dedicated in-house Special Events team and carefully selected accredited suppliers.

The event welcomed an array of high-profile guests, including HRH Duchess of Cambridge, for a visual and culinary masterpiece hosted under the Whale skeleton itself. Hintze Hall opened its doors for the first time after a six month refurbishment to rapturous applause, generating global press coverage about the Museum’s biggest transformation in its 136 year history.
