New LGBTQ+ theatre and workspace to open on former site of XXL London

  • Southwark Council is investing £1.5 million to develop a new LGBTQ+ venue at the former site of the now-closed Club XXL, with a total investment of £4 million planned for the area.
  • The new LGBTQ+ space in Bankside Yards will include a theatre and workspace, and is expected to open in 2026.
  • The closure of XXL in 2019 faced backlash, with nearly 6,000 signatures on a petition to save it, highlighting the loss of LGBTQ+ nightlife in London.
  • Councillor Helen Dennis stated that the new space will 'massively benefit' the LGBTQ+ community in Southwark.
