Gay Men’s Conference 2027 – London

 

About

The Gay Men’s Conference 2027 is a one-day conference in London for gay men (same-sex attracted adult human males) to connect, discuss, strategise, and be inspired across a range of topics. The Gay Men’s Conference has become an annual gathering for gay men with attendees travelling from across the UK, Europe, and North America.

Unlike many other conferences, this is not a day of passive listening or back-to-back speeches. Our focus is on productive outcomes that benefit gay men and strengthen gay male community life.

The programme will include interactive group discussions, panels, workshops, Q&As, and facilitated sessions designed to encourage participation and practical thinking. Building on our previous work, HGM members will also be able to submit ideas and proposals for sessions, including the option to run a session themselves.

The full programme, timetable, and speaker details will be shared here once confirmed.

Location

For security reasons, the venue will be announced only to ticket holders, and only a few days before the event. The conference will take place in central London, close to transport connections and accommodation. We’ll gradually narrow this down to the relevant part of London as we get nearer to the day, sharing enough information in advance for you to plan travel and accommodation.

 

Passes

Your Conference Pass includes access to all sessions and activities in the programme, as well as lunch and refreshments throughout the day. We’ve simplified the options again this year, while still aiming to maximise access for as many people as possible.

The Signature Pass includes everything in the Standard Pass, plus a commemorative conference T-shirt and a mystery gift. Choosing a Signature Pass helps fund subsidised places and extend participation. It also helps provide places for the volunteer team who make the conference possible.

If cost is a barrier to attending — whether due to income, travel, or other circumstances — please get in touch. We have a limited number of subsidised places available.

Our first conference sold out by the start of November, and last year’s sold out by the end of October. We recommend booking your place early to avoid disappointment.

 

Audience

Passes for this event are exclusively for gay men, on the basis of our protected characteristics as defined by the Equality Act 2010: Sex, Sexual Orientation, and Belief (or lack thereof). If you purchase a Pass and do not meet the eligibility criteria for this event, your Pass will be cancelled without refund and your payment will be considered a donation.

 

Donations, Sponsorship, and Support

If you’re buying a Pass and would like to make an additional donation, or if you’re not buying a Pass and would still like to support the event, or if you are not a gay man but wish to support a conference for gay men, there is a Donations option via the Get Tickets button on the Eventbrite page. You can also make a donation directly on our website.

We offer a range of sponsorship opportunities for organisations wishing to support the conference as a whole or specific aspects of the event. Sponsorship can involve inclusion in direct emails to our members and promotion via our social media channels.

For sponsorship enquiries, please email info@humangaymale.com

 

Exhibition

We offer a limited number of exhibition spaces for organisations that are relevant to gay men. Where an organisation has someone attending the conference as a paid participant, exhibition space is provided at no additional cost. If an organisation would like to exhibit but does not have anyone eligible to attend the conference sessions, a per-person Exhibitor Pass is available. Please get in touch if you’d like to discuss booking an exhibition stand: info@humangaymale.com
