Celebrating the Autumn Term in Style Aboard the Sunborn, a Luxury Yacht Hotel in the Royal Docks.


As the leaves turn golden and the air grows crisp, The Event School London recently marked the success of its autumn term with a welcome reception for students and staff.


This year's venue was lux and stylish, the Sunborn Yacht Hotel at ExCeL London, a setting that perfectly encapsulated the essence of luxury and sophistication.


A Unique Gathering on the Royal Docks


The Sunborn Yacht Hotel, a floating hotel boasting stunning views of the Royal Docks and ExCeL London, provided an ideal backdrop for this special event. As the sun set over the docks, casting a golden glow on the water, the excitement was palpable. Students from various programs, including evening classes, full-time courses, short courses, and part-time courses, gathered to celebrate their educational journey in the Autumn Term.


A Melting Pot of Aspiring Event Professionals


The reception was more than just a social event; it was a melting pot of future event management professionals. Students from diverse backgrounds and stages of their careers mingled, shared experiences, and networked, creating a vibrant and dynamic atmosphere.


The diversity of the student body added depth and richness to the conversations, ranging from fresh insights by newcomers to seasoned perspectives from more experienced attendees.

Lecturers and Students: Bridging the Gap
