Installation and Celebratory Dinner 2025

The installation of our new Master, Wardens and Court, combines the ancient traditions of the Livery with our modern outlook and values.   This event is open both to Company Members and Non-Members to book.  The || Register Now || button will be visible to the right when bookings can be made.

  
​Our Annual Installation Ceremony and Dinner

The Installation marks the beginning of our Livery Year, when the robes and chain of office are passed from the current master and wardens to the new ‘team’ who will take us forward.  This is therefore a ‘must attend’ ceremony to witness, which is followed by a celebratory dinner bringing together the very best of our Company’s traditions and thought leadership, alongside fine dining and fellowship.

Be part of a defining moment in the life of WCoMC. Join us to welcome our new Master, engage with the future of our company and profession, and enjoy an evening of camaraderie in the grandeur of Painters’ Hall. This hall is the third property on the site in Little Trinity Lane – the first being destroyed in the Great Fire of 1666 and the second by fire in 1941 during the blitz. The present hall is renowned for its oak woodwork grained to simulate marble, two glass painted panels in the Court Room and the recent stained glass in the main Hall featuring various coats of arms.

After the Installation Ceremony, the evening continues with a three-course fine dining experience, accompanied by carefully selected wines from our WCoMC's cellar. We are delighted to welcome Alderman Michael Mainelli, an Honorary Liveryman of WCoMC and a former Lord Mayor of the City of London, who will deliver an entertaining and thought-provoking address during the dinner on “The Future of Management Consultancy”. And in addition to this keynote address, we will present the Satjit Cup to Lt Cdr (SCC) Will Pascoe RNR of the Sea Cadets to celebrate his outstanding achievement, and share a Loving Cup ceremony in keeping with historic livery traditions.

At the end of the dinner, there will be a Stirrup Cup to allow time for social networking and catching up with fellow members.
