ILMC takes place at the Royal Lancaster Hotel in London (W2 2TY) and there’s even more networking ‘space’ available than ever this year, including the Nine Kings Foyer,  The Park Restaurant, and Strangey’s Bar (aka The Black Hole), which is this year hosted by ASM Global.

Each of these areas include comfortable seating, tea & coffee, or bar service.

Additionally, continuing a longstanding trend of ILMC having its own pub for the duration of the conference, we’re taking over The Swan on both Weds 28th and Thurs 29th Feb, which is just a moment’s walk from the hotel.

Also, astronauts can book a table at Space Station Lancaster’s very own onboard Thai restaurant. (Read on for details)

You will need to present your wristband to enter these areas.

BOOK A TABLE AT THE NIPA THAI

Did you know that Space Station Lancaster boasts one of the finest Thai restaurants in London? The traditional, all-female, all-Thai kitchen is led by Head Chef Sanguan Parr who creates menus that reflect authentic Thai cuisine.

Handily located in the middle of ILMC, Nipa Thai is the perfect location for a meal with colleagues away from the hustle and bustle of the main conference, but with limited space, you should book in advance if you think you might like a break from eating rations of dehydrated food during ILMC’s forthcoming space mission.
