Pride at The Standard, London

Pride at The Standard, London

We’re going all out for Pride at The Standard, London. Join us for Theirstories: Summer of Sport & a HOWL London Pride Party. 

Theirstories: Summer of Sport

To mark Pride in London and the launch of the Women’s Euros, TheirStories presents Queer Voices in Football—a special event bringing together LGBTQ+ players, fans, and advocates to highlight queer experiences in football and push for progress in the game. Despite strong LGBTQ+ representation in women’s football and campaigns like Rainbow Laces, top-tier men's football still lacks openly queer players. The panel will explore grassroots efforts, challenges like the FA's ban on trans women, and the work still needed for true inclusion.

Panelists include Liz Ward, Joanie Evans, Fae Fulconis, Snake Denton, and Caz Simone, with a spoken word performance, DJ set, and Euros screening to follow. Join us for an evening of conversation, connection, and celebration.

HOWL London Pride Party 

Join us for a party in Sweeties celebrating the collaboration with lube-brand HOWL in honour of Pride Month to celebrate the 'Dial-for-Pleasure' activation, which gives hotel guests exclusive access to HOWL CBD Lube mini love kits. Time to celebrate ALL THINGS PLEASURE this Pride Month. All month long, opportunities to donate to Not A Phase foundation will be available throughout the hotel. 

Turn up the heat during your stay with our in-room Love Kits—featuring condoms and sachets of HOWL’s signature CBD lube for a smooth, elevated experience. Ready to take it further? Dial ‘0’ for Pleasure and treat yourself to a full-size bottle, available discreetly from our Front Desk. Indulgence, on demand.
