What is the Imperial Garden Party
The Imperial Garden Party is an annual event that celebrates all staff and students nominated by their managers, peers, and colleagues for their exceptional contributions to Imperial over the past year.
This is a special recognition event rather than a competitive award, there is no single winner. Instead, it’s an opportunity to celebrate and recognise the achievements and excellence of all those nominated (Please note Garden Party attendees are not required to go on stage for the award ceremony.)
This event also recognises staff who have supported important projects, provided excellent service, taken on new challenges or gained a qualification whilst demonstrating commitment to the university’s values and behaviours, Respect, Collaboration, Excellence, Integrity, and Innovation. Nominations can be made by staff from all areas of Imperial.
