The North London LGBTQ Scene

What the LGBTQ scene in North London looks like and how it has changed

By Lowri Griffiths, North London.

The Scene

The North London LGBTQ scene -- the specific venues, organisations, and community spaces that the LGBTQ community in North London has developed and maintains -- is less visible than the Soho scene that the national coverage tends to focus on and more embedded in the specific neighbourhoods where the community has lived and built its institutions.

The Venues

The specific venues: the specific pubs and community spaces in Islington and Hackney that have served the North London LGBTQ community for decades, some of which have closed and some of which have survived the specific economic pressures that the venue economy has produced.

The Column

Lowri Griffiths covers the North London LGBTQ scene because the accountability journalism of the community requires covering the specific institutions that the community depends on, and because the venue closures are the accountability journalism of what the neighbourhood has lost.
