EuroHedge Awards 2025 | 5 March 2026
Raffles London at The OWO

A venue rich in history


Originally completed in 1906, The Old War Office has played a central role in some of the most significant moments of the twentieth century. Its corridors were once walked by leaders such as Winston Churchill, Lord Haldane and T. E. Lawrence, and the building has long been associated with influence, strategy and global affairs.


Following a monumental multi-year restoration, the building has been reimagined as Raffles London at The OWO. The result is a remarkable combination of historical character and refined contemporary elegance, offering an atmosphere that feels both iconic and intimate.

An unforgettable experience


Guests at the EuroHedge Awards will enjoy an evening of exceptional surroundings, impressive architecture and attentive hospitality.

The venue’s grandeur and attention to detail elevate every part of the event, from the champagne reception to the dinner and awards ceremony.
