A gala celebration is planned; fun for the whole family!

The IHRC event, ‘The Annual Islamophobia Awards’, promises to be an unparalleled night of fun and entertainment! This fundraising banquet will be broadcasted internationally by Prime TV. It will take a satirical look at the year’s events and present spoof awards to the biggest Islamophobes.

Musical performances include ‘Mecca to Medina’ and a traditional Tavashih group. There will also be an auction during the evening which will give guests an opportunity to acquire an array of arts, jewellery and goods, whilst also contributing to a worthy cause.

Press wishing to attend should call the Press Officer on the number below. The ceremony begins at 6.45pm and takes place at the Islamic Centre of England, 140 Maida Vale, London W9.

For further information please contact the Press Officer on ( 44) 20 8902 0888 or ( 44) 7958 522 196, email: info@ihrc.org.

Nothing like naming the infidel enemy to spark an evening of light-hearted entertainment! Par-tay!
