EVENTS/ Covid-19 update
We are delighted to announce that Burlington House will reopen for in person and hybrid events from September (subject to the latest government guidance). Weˇ¦ve introduced a number of measures to help everyone remain safe while theyˇ¦re here. These measures have been outlined in our Covid-19 venue hire information document.
From September-October we will be operating at slightly reduced capacity. We hope to return to our normal conference capacity as outlined in our venue hire brochure from October.
