The IOR Annual Dinner is back on 30 June 2022! The 121st Annual Dinner has been moved to a summer date to celebrate our industry’s achievements and to galvanise interest in the RACHP sector alongside World Refrigeration Day activities.

Known to many as the original "Fridge Dinner”, the IOR Annual Dinner is an ideal opportunity to catch up with colleagues, friends, and clients, make new contacts and celebrate the achievements of the refrigeration, air conditioning and heat pump sector.

Booking for the event is now open and tickets start from £147 + VAT for members' individual tickets.  Tables of 10 and 12 are also available. The price includes a welcome drinks reception, three-course meal including ½ bottle of wine per person, awards ceremony, after-dinner speake, awards presentation and late bar. It will conclude with a speech from IOR President Mike Creamer FInstR.
