The programme includes the annual Royal Gold Medal exhibition celebrating the work of this year’s recipient SANAA, the collaborative practice of Japanese architects Kazuyo Sejima and Ryue Nishizawa, culminating in RIBA Late, an evening of insightful architecture talks, curator-led tours, plus live music and performances from some of RIBA’s creative collaborators.

RIBA’s public programme explores architecture’s excellence and its impact on people, communities, and the planet through RIBA’s world class collections as well as new commissions. You can experience this at 66 Portland Place in London until its temporary closure and at RIBA North on the Liverpool waterfront.

Details for RIBA’s full exhibitions and events programme for the second half of 2025 will be announced soon.
