Pavillon Gabriel, at 9 avenue Gabriel in the 8th arrondissement, was built in 1841 and is close to the Champs-Élysées. It is now an events venue run by Potel et Chabot and home to Studio Gabriel.

The reception was four days after the All Blacks beat Ireland 28 to 24 in the quarter-final, and two days before their semi-final against Argentina at the Stade de France. New Zealand went on to play South Africa in the final.

The evening opened with a kapa haka performance, followed by a panel talk on stage.

We then covered the reception: guests, the chefs' live station, New Zealand food and drink, and rugby balls signed for guests.

We're based in London and travel for events like this.
