Queer Theatre Festive Feast & Awards
Sunday 14th December 2025
Doors 7pm | Festive Feast 8pm | Awards & Speeches 9pm until 11pm
The Railway, Clapham
Join us for Queer Theatre’s Festive Feast & Awards - a cosy evening celebrating the season with our chosen queer family. We’ll take over the upstairs space of The Railway, Clapham’s queer-run pub, complete with our own private bartender, until 11pm. Expect seasonal decorations, music, crackers, surprises, heartfelt speeches, and plenty of laughter as we enjoy a three-course festive feast, followed by awards, prizes, and a celebration of the achievements of LGBTQIA+ theatre-makers and the memories we’ve made in 2025.
Then, we’ll head over to our friends at The Two Brewers to dance off the turkey and sprouts with DJ Demon until 2am.
Dress Code: Festive and Fabulous.
