UPCOMING EVENTS

Upcoming Events

what we do

From games and quiz nights to panel talks on sustainability and biryani — we build a mix of events that range from light and social to genuinely thought-provoking. Comedy, screenings, panels: the aim is always the same. A space where people feel comfortable, have fun, and form real connections.

Games Nights

Games Nights are a favourite amongst our attendees, hosted at the wonderful Moot Club. The venue has a variety of arcade games, video games, board games and almost always a game of mafia going on. It's a relaxed and fun networking opportunity that consistently brings people together for a memorable night of connection and enjoyment.
Football Screenings

During the Euros and most recently the World Cup, we hosted a series of screening events that gave people a different way to experience the beautiful game. Across both tournaments we sold over 250 tickets, welcoming a real mix of people — parents and daughters, friends, couples, solo attendees and total strangers — all showing up with serious energy.
We helped create spaces where people who don't always feel at home in traditional pub settings could be part of the moment together. Alcohol-free, inclusive and genuinely buzzing — we even took over Brixton Jamm, one of South London's best known venues, and made it our own.
Comedy Nights

The Comedy Scene is a lively comedy night at Bold Elephant Theatre, featuring a stellar lineup including South Asian and POC comedians. The evening was a celebration of diverse voices and perspectives, offering our community a chance to enjoy a night of laughter and connection through the unique humour and experiences of these talented performers.
Parties

Our parties are a different kind of night out. Think good music, non-alcoholic drinks and a crowd that actually wants to be there. We keep numbers intentional so there's real space to meet people — some dance, some chat, all have a good time. No alcohol, no awkwardness, just good vibes.
Conversations

Our Conversations evenings are where we slow down and go deeper. From exploring the history and ancestry of biryani to what the global south can teach us about sustainability, these are the discussions that don't usually happen in everyday life but probably should.
Led by guests and speakers who know their stuff, these evenings are part panel, part community — thought provoking without being heavy, and always leaving you with something to think about on the way home.

MEET THE TEAM

Run by the community, for the community.

For over two years we've provided an alcohol-free option in London's nightlife — built by a small crew who care about creating spaces where people actually feel at home.
