RIBA North East Winter Social

We're delighted to invite architects, students and collaborators in the North East to join us for our 2026 Kickstart Social. We’ll be ‘looking back and looking forward for the region’, hear from recognised voices of experience and rising stars alike, raise a glass and welcome in good things for the year ahead.

This year’s social will include an interactive discussion exploring what’s ahead for architecture in the North East in 2026, along with a moment to reflect on key milestones and progress across the region. It’s a chance to share ideas, exchange perspectives, and look forward to the year ahead.

All attendees will receive a food and drinks token, with further menu details to follow. Please let us know any dietary requirements via the order form.

Venue and full event details will be shared shortly.

We’re looking forward to welcoming you and kicking off the year together!

Tickets are limited, so please book ahead, and let us know if you’re unable to attend, once booked.

This event is free for RIBA members and £10 for non-members.

This event is sponsored by Zentia.
