To All Club Members,
It is my pleasure to announce the planned launch of The Explorers Club, London.
This addition to our community is designed to broaden our commitment to scientific research, conservation, and the human instinct to explore – as well as provide Club Members a unique benefit in one of the world's great cities.
Upon opening, The Explorers Club, London will offer events programs in-line with programming at Club Headquarters, including book launches, film screenings, and workshops with explorers recently back from the field.
Patronage membership of The Explorers Club, London will support our grants program, field research, and the communication of scientific discovery to the public – through the direction of Explorers Club global leadership and our worldwide membership.
All Explorers Club Members will have full access to the London Clubhouse – where there will not only be a library, meeting space, screening room and a recording studio, but two restaurants, two bars, an orangery, and a cigar terrace to enjoy with friends and colleagues.
Situated at 43 Berkeley Square, Mayfair, London, the project received unanimous support of our Board of Directors and will be a fitting milestone for our organisation's 120th anniversary.
The London Clubhouse is a “Grade II” listed historic building, built in 1750 by Sir William Kent, overlooking the famous Berkeley Square, at the epicentre of London's iconic West End.
The Explorers Club, London will be headed up by Stephen Boxall FIH, former managing director of The Ritz London, where he and his team will oversee the refurbishment for a targeted opening in Q1 2025.
I will keep you all updated on progress, and trust you will join me in welcoming our new London home as a giant leap forward in this Club's illustrious history.
Yours in Exploration,
Richard Garriott
President, The Explorers Club
