New Year’s Eve at The Cock Tavern in London is shaping up to be exactly the kind of chaos we want to ring in 2025.
Big tunes, big personalities, fizz flowing freely and a room full of people who know how to belt out a chorus when the clock strikes midnight.
If you’ve spent December saying “we’ll sort NYE plans later”, congratulations, later has arrived, and this is a very strong option.
The Cock Tavern is throwing a proper knees-up on Wednesday 31 December, with doors opening from 7.30pm and the party rolling through to 3am. Expect bites to keep you upright, bubbles to keep you smiling, and a packed dancefloor once the DJ booth gets going.
Leading the night is the unstoppable Candy Heals, serving host duties with their trademark mix of camp, charm and crowd control. Behind the decks, Jill Brook and Phil Marriott will be delivering wall-to-wall party classics, hands-in-the-air anthems, and those “oh go on then” bangers that keep you dancing long after you promised yourself just one more song.
And yes, there will be a midnight sing-along, because New Year’s Eve without shouting the words with strangers who feel like mates by 12.01am is simply not it.
This is a night for regulars, friends-of-friends, locals and anyone who wants to see the year out somewhere warm, welcoming and gloriously loud. No pretence, no overpriced nonsense, just a solid LGBTQ+ New Year’s Eve party done right.
Tickets are available now via Outsavvy, and if you’re still dithering, consider this your sign. Grab yours, grab your mates and head to The Cock Tavern to see in 2025 the only acceptable way, together, slightly tipsy and singing at the top of your lungs.
We’ll see you at the bar. 🥂
