Enjoy a night of feasting and excess, inspired by Tudor decadence.

Pig out on the hog roast, surrounded by Renaissance entertainment including a court jester with a contemporary twist. Listen to foodie talks from Richard Fitch, J Marc Meltonville and Fay Maschler. Watch a screening of Babette’s Feast and see the Turner Prize 2006 and Holbein in England exhibitions for half price. Listen to luscious ambient sounds and the latest left-field minimalism from DJ Ben Eshmade, the man behind Classic FM's Chiller Cabinet and its live offshoot, The Arctic Circle.

To celebrate feasting, Tate Catering is delighted to present a special Late at Tate Tasting Dinner. The five-course menu includes some of the season’s finest produce, matched with outstanding wines. Tickets cost £50 per person and include all food, wines and water. Reservations should be made by calling 020 7887 8825. Download menu (PDF, 41k).
