**Tickets:** [https://tickxts.com/e/kypvsn8L](https://tickxts.com/e/kypvsn8L) **THE KICKBACK: THURSDAY AFTER WORK** **FRIDAY CAME EARLY.** We’re kicking off UK Black History Month with the launch of Thursday After Work; a new monthly after-work social from The Kickback. And it felt only right that we launch at XORA London, a Black-owned venue in the heart of Farringdon. On Thursday 1st October, we’re taking over XORA from 6 PM–11 PM for an evening of good food, drinks, music, games, networking and good people. Thursday After Work is for those who want to meet new people, expand their circles and unwind after work without the awkwardness of a formal networking event. Come straight from work, grab a drink, get involved in the games, make some new connections or simply catch up with friends. Expect R&B, Hip-Hop, Afrobeats, Amapiano and everything in between as we take you from after-work drinks into the evening. 1st October also marks the start of UK Black History Month, so we’re kicking off the month by bringing our community together and supporting a Black-owned London venue. **DRESS CODE:** ALL BLACK 🖤 And when we say all black, we mean ALL BLACK 😂 No “there’s a little bit of black on my trainers”—no creative interpretations. Come correct. **THURSDAY 1ST OCTOBER 2026** **6 PM–11 PM** XORA LONDON 27 Clerkenwell Road Farringdon, London, EC1M 5RN Food available to purchase Games & networking DJs & music After-work drinks 21+ **THURSDAYS • AFTER WORK • LONDON** Friday came early. **STAY CONNECTED** Follow The Kickback: @TheKickbackHQ Join our WhatsApp community for updates, announcements and priority access to future events. **PHOTOGRAPHY NOTICE** Photography and videography will take place throughout the evening.

Hello lovelies 😊, Let’s catch up and enjoy sundowners with lovely views, in the lovely Skylon bar 🥂. Skylon's perched on the South Bank with the kind of setting that makes good conversation feel effortless. Complemented by bronze chandeliers and contemporary design, it's ideal for a Friday catch-up with friends. DM me if you have any questions.

From Young LGBTQ+ Professionals (7k+ members)

\*\* Please RSVP - this helps the venue plan ahead and ensure enough space is reserved for us \*\* Hey everyone! Are you a young professional in your 20s/30s looking to meet other LGBT young professionals? Then we hope to see you at the upcoming Tuesday drinks! Most people come to these drinks by themselves, and half of the people are first-timers, so these evenings are great to meet new people in London. We have tables reserved on the top floor (loft) of The Yard bar in Soho. Go into the Yard, turn left, and head upstairs. Just ask the bar for the tables reserved for the "Meetup". We usually have the tables opposite to the bar. Many have noticed that it can be difficult to meet up with the LGBT community once you leave university or come to a big new city such as London. For this reason we've decided to start organising drinks for young professionals, intended for those who love to have a drink with like-minded people after a busy day of work. Do spread the word, and bring friends, colleagues and family! Frequently Asked Questions: It's my first time and I'm coming alone, should I be nervous? No, you found the right event! Almost everyone joins these drinks alone and there are always a bunch of first timers. Just grab a drink and say hi to those around the reserved tables and you'll be absolutely fine :) I cannot make it at 7.00pm, can I come later? Yes, definitely! There will always be one of the organisers present from 7.00pm onwards, but most people just join whenever they can. There is no official 'start' so to say, and it usually stays busy till around 10pm-11pm. For first timers it can be easier to mingle if you come before 8pm, when it's not that busy yet. How often are the drinks and where are they held? We have drinks every two weeks from 7.00pm at The Yard Bar in Soho. Sometimes we organise other events such as big nights out, pub crawls and picnics. Just keep an eye on the Meetup page. Is there a dress code? Nope, not at all. Just wear whatever you want. Is there a cost? Only for whatever drinks you buy at the bar. That said, if you enjoy the Meetup, we would really welcome any cash donations to help cover our costs for running the events. However, you will never be directly asked for any money from any of our team. Are the Tuesday drinks for networking? No, the drinks are super casual, and not intended to find your new dream job. We have people from all different professional backgrounds, so it's always cool to hear what others are up to. I don't drink alcohol, can I come? Of course! Since it's on a Tuesday many take it easy, so you won't be an outlier. If you have any questions don't hesitate to pop any of our organisers a message. Looking forward to meeting you all! Xx The young LGBTQ+ professionals team Xx

👀 ***Something is happening…*** ***The best way I can describe it is like one member said to me:*** ***‘Tim - It’s like freshers week, every week, but better, with bands and stuff…’*** and that’s how it’s been over the last 7 years since we created this group. It’s honestly the most fun we’ve had and I’m inviting everyone of you because something’s been happening for a while now and you just don’t know about it…It’s a Showcase of some of the Best London bands playing their music in London - and it’s also a MEETUP group, so you can watch the gig with a mix of regular members and newcomers. Feel free to come on your own or bring your friends and meet new people. Look for the ‘MEETUP SIGN’ or ask the Host on the Door when you arrive. It’s an awesome line-up and at one of the Top Venues in London - Great place for a beer, meet new people and see some amazing unsigned bands! 🔥🔥🚒🍻 \* ‼️ **THE ULTIMATE LONDON GIG MEETUP!** ‼️ **LONDON MUSIC SHOWCASE PRESENTS:** The SLAUGHTERED LAMB October 2nd FRIDAY [BITCHCRAFT](https://www.instagram.com/bitchcraft_band/) \- Headliner [DESERT CLOUDS](https://www.instagram.com/thedesertclouds) [NAME YOUR CHILD](https://www.instagram.com/nameyourchildband/) [ASTRO CATS](https://www.instagram.com/astro.cats) \* There aren’t enough emojis for this, so I’ll keep it simple: **BE THERE.** If you’ve been to the MEET-UPS over the last 7 years, you’ll know what it’s all about so come down, bring your friends, bring your foes, cancel your wedding, book Granny out of the retirement home. Whatever it takes, she won’t want miss it 😄🍻 \* **WHATSAPP GROUP:** We’re a friendly mix; English, French, Australian, Portuguese, Italian, Spanish and Japanese people so I’m sure you will meet someone that shares a passion for Rocking Music.
