The Margaret Thatcher Lecture & Gala Dinner 2026

THE EVENT OF THE SEASON!
Drinks 6.30pm | Dinner 7.15pm
Dress Code: Black Tie

Last October the Margaret Thatcher Centre’s Centennial Gala lit up the Guildhall and became the unmissable night of the year. This December we close the centenary in even more historic and emotional style.

Join us at the Royal Hospital Chelsea — the elegant home of the Chelsea Pensioners and the very place where Margaret Thatcher’s ashes were laid to rest beside her beloved husband, Sir Denis — for an evening of rare glamour, intellectual firepower and lasting significance.

This year’s Lecture will be given by The Rt Hon The Lord Gove, PC — former Cabinet Minister, editor of The Spectator, and one of the sharpest, most consequential voices in British public life. Expect a night of conviction, conversation and celebration.

Ticket Options:
Single ticket: £195 per person
Full table (to seat 8 people): £1,500 

All ticket options include:  Sparkling drinks reception • Three-course fine dining • Half a bottle of wine per person • Petits fours & coffee

Our bespoke sponsorship packages start at £2,000. Contact Gemma Baldock with all enquiries: gemma.baldock@thatchercentre.com

This is the night that will define the end of Lady Thatcher’s centennial celebrations. Come along and savour the moment.
