THE SERPENTINE SUMMER PARTY 2025

Hosted by Michael R. Bloomberg, Chairman of Serpentine’s Board of Trustees; Bettina Korek, Serpentine CEO; and Hans Ulrich Obrist, Serpentine Artistic Director, this year’s Serpentine Summer Party will be held on Tuesday, 24 June, 2025 in Kensington Gardens.

For the first time since the beginning of the event in 2000, just one artist will co-host The Summer Party: the world renowned Australian actor, producer and humanitarian Cate Blanchett.

The fundraiser will bring together Serpentine supporters alongside leading figures from art, culture, fashion, architecture, business, and technology, creating a dynamic gathering of luminaries around the 25th Anniversary Serpentine Pavilion by Bangladeshi architect Marina Tabassum.
