Join Blackening, a welcoming community gathering created for queer Black men to connect, share experiences, and build meaningful friendships in a relaxed and inclusive environment. Taking place on Thursday 27th from 7:00 PM, this social event offers a supportive space where guests can enjoy great conversation, strengthen community ties, and meet like-minded people in the heart of London.
Designed to foster genuine connection, Blackening provides an opportunity to step away from the fast pace of everyday life and enjoy an evening centred around community, belonging, and mutual support.

The event is hosted at The Cock Tavern, located at 340 Kennington Road, London SE11 4LD. One of South London’s best-known LGBTQ+ venues, The Cock Tavern combines the charm of a traditional pub with a modern, inclusive atmosphere. Guests can enjoy a wide selection of drinks, quality food, and comfortable social spaces, while the venue’s regular programme of LGBTQ+ events has made it a popular meeting place for diverse communities across London.
