UK Black Pride is back for 2025!
UK Black Pride is a safe space to celebrate diverse sexualities, gender identities, cultures, gender expressions and backgrounds and we foster, represent and celebrate LGBTQI+ Black and POC culture through education, the arts, cultural events and advocacy.
The meeting point will be outside the Olympic Park main entrance at 2pm. Look for Aaron, who will be wearing a rainbow flag as a cape. Come and celebrate the intersections of being LGBTQIA+ and a Person of Colour.

- LGBTQ+ Women's Social EveningThe Victoria, Surbiton
If you would like to come and meet up with some LGBTQ+ Women who enjoy a get together then do come along to our LGBTQ+ Women's Social Night.
While this is a Women’s social, we don’t want to be too prescriptive for these events as some people who are, for example, non-binary, gender-fluid or questioning may wish to come along. If this event is something you fancy, we’d love to see you there.
Don't worry if you haven't been along before this is a warm & friendly group and we all enjoy getting to know each other.
We know it can be a bit unnerving coming to an event for the first time, especially if the bar is busy, so we will always make sure the bar staff know where we are.
If you would like some introductions, ask for either Lianne or Emma and say hello.
We're looking forward to seeing you there.
Accessibility information about the Victoria can be found here.
