Renowned chefs Tom Aikens and Chantelle Nicholson have today been announced as hosts for the third year of the award-winning Lord’s Dining Club
Lord's Dining Club is a fine dining event where guests enjoy an exclusively designed four-course menu, with paired wines, created by some of the world’s greatest chefs at Lord’s Cricket Ground.
Aikens, who became the youngest British chef to be awarded two Michelin stars, will launch the first event at Lord’s in 2020 on Wednesday 25th March. Founder of Tom’s Kitchen in Chelsea, the celebrated chef is known for his sophisticated and creative British dishes executed with technical flair, and will be the eighth Michelin-starred chef to host Lord’s Dining Club.
Multi-award winning Nicholson is one of the UK’s leading females in the hospitality world, and will host the second event on Thursday 7th May. Chef patron of Tredwells in London’s West End, she has enjoyed an impressive rise on the culinary career ladder, and her New Zealand roots inspire her fresh and vibrant menus.
James de Groot, Food and Beverage Executive Manager at Lord’s, said: “We are thrilled to announce Tom and Chantelle as the first guest chefs for the 2020 series of Lord’s Dining Club, for what has become a highlight in the Lord’s calendar.

The evening concludes with diners gaining an exclusive insight into the careers of the host chefs, their menu creations for the event and a range of other topics in a Q&A session, hosted by former England cricketer Angus Fraser.
