How do you find your tribe, locate your logical family, detect your ride or die BFF, when your meets with other Black queer men all seem to start with,
- Pic?
- You first
- But you're the one with the empty profile . . . Aaargh!
How can you find people on a level, without the expectation that it has to become horizontal at some point?
Where do you meet the guys who went through it a few years back with insider tips to share, or who are connected to the latest in the field that you've lately realised you want to get into.
What about when the Black employee group looks at you like you're an alien - as does the LGBT group. . .
Feels like a waste of your precious free time when Alan corners you at drinks so that he can list all the Black people he's ever met and claim them as close friends, as a prelude to seeking your validation that Emmanuel was over-reacting when he called him out for his, 'hilarious' Diane Abbott impression.
Exhausting, right?
We've got you - there's a Black queer homecoming going on after all.
To enable an even spread of ages, and to inspire confidence that there will be people at the event that you will be able to vibe with, we have selected to offer tickets in age cohorts. If your age cohort is full - please don't worry - simply add your name to the waiting list and we will be in touch.
The venue is amazing but so shiny and NEW that we haven't yet worked out the menu we want to offer - so are awaiting a conversation with the venue and taking advice from your hosts for the evening before settling on the ticket price - rest assured though, making every effort to keep it affordable and brilliant value, and that no one should be excluded from an event as cool as this one will be because of lack of funds.
Ticket sales for CONNECTED Connections close one day before the event
