On Thursday 16 April, the Guardian and Tate will be hosting a private, after-hours event to celebrate the groundbreaking work of world-renowned artist Tracey Emin – and as a valued Guardian reader, you’re invited.

Tracey Emin: A Second Life is the largest ever exhibition of Emin’s work, and features career-defining sensations alongside works never before exhibited.

As part of the Guardian’s ongoing partnership with Tate, we are delighted to invite you to an exclusive event, which includes complimentary drinks and nibbles, a talk from one of the exhibition curators and private access to the exhibition.

Join us from 7pm at the River Entrance, on the north side of Tate Modern, London SE1 9TG.

To sign up for this event, please email rsvp@theguardian.com. Spaces are limited, so you will be entered into a random ballot, and we will let you know in the coming weeks if you have been successful. You will not be able to bring a plus one.

And on Friday 24 April, Emin will be in conversation with the Guardian’s chief culture writer, Charlotte Higgins. She will reflect on her life in art, the ideas behind the exhibition and the experiences that continue to shape her work. Buy your tickets to the livestream here.
