Much more than just a running club, Midnight Runners gives you the chance to do something healthy and invigorating with your evening while escaping the confines of your local gym. They're a worldwide movement as well, with clubs in cities across the world such as LA, Sydney, Barcelona and more. Go for it and join in, your body will thank you later. Taking place at Inanna Studio , an intimate private sex dungeon in north London, the events centre completely on the female experience: meaning cis women,trans women, and non-binary people who are exploring their femininity are all welcome. ‘I’ve always been interested in sex and fetish fashion, but it used to be from the perspective of the male gaze – even subconsciously,’ Adriana says. ‘One Night helped me realise that my sexuality is for nobody except me.’ Photograph: Miss Gold / @modestgoldx @the.london.vagabond One Night Neon paint, UV lights and writhing bodies – no, it’s not something X-rated, this is a legit life-drawing class.

Don’t let that put you off though – if you did, you would miss out on one of the best places to eat in central London. Italian cuisine is the name of the game here: a selection of small and large plates that goes far beyond the standard fare you’d expect.

It's taken place at various venues including The Glory and Dalston Superstore, but every Hungama is a super-inclusive mix of Bollywood imagery, hip hop beats and anything-goes gay abandon.

Ok, so it might feel more like a pub, but Bradley's says its a bar, so we will too. With its jumble sale decor and tattered furniture, it puts the 'shabby' in 'shabby chic'. Also home to one of the best jukeboxes in town – think northern soul and disco bangers – and it's free! When to visit: On a sunny evening, the lure of Crate is hard to resist. Failing that, make it a lingering weekend session after a brisk walk by the water. Either way, this place is primed for socially distanced beers. Phonox has the utopian aim of building a welcoming community of likeminded clubbers. No frills, no pretence, just a sound group of people there for the dance.
