Black Meat Market will be hosting a new experience this May titled Mandem Freakhauz. Taking place from 1–4 May 2026 in London, the event will be a four-day, three-night private house stay with a limited group of 20 men.

Guests arrive, settle in and stay. There are no rotating entries, no public

What started as a simple idea: creating spaces where Black men could feel seen, free and c

With AfterDark Circle 2.0, we’ll be taking a much stronger approach to moderation. We’ll be monitoring the group more closely, reviewing activity properly, and making sure the space stays activ
