Return of the IoR Northern Branch dinner

UK: The Northern Branch of the Institute of Refrigeration has announced the return of its annual dinner after a five-year hiatus.

This popular event last took place in 2019, the planned 2020 dinner being cancelled due to covid-19 restrictions. Now it’s back and at a new venue – the Hilton Hotel, Gateshead, on 11 September 2025.

Overlooking the Tyne and the iconic Tyne Bridge, the 254-room Hilton Hotel borders the Quayside area and is less than a mile from Gateshead metro station and eight minutes from the A1 motorway.
