THT Fundraiser:The Auction – Christies

Terrence Higgins Trust's annual event, The Auction, in support of people living with HIV. The highlight of the gala events calendar is back for another year! On Thursday 17 March 2016 one of our flagship events, The Auction, will once again be held at Christie's. The event is one of Londons most successful charity auctions and a night like no other. A champagne reception is followed by an evening of frantic bidding for world-renowned artwork, luxury travel lots and exciting celebrity experiences. Guests then move to Christies Great Room for entertainment and a standing supper. Last year we raised a staggering 316,000. Over its history the event has raised 3 million to make a difference to the lives of people living with and affected by HIV.

Tickets : £ 160-550 Tickets
