Cavendish Street , W1W 6YJ
On the 4th of June 2025, London’s Collective hosted an Eid Market at Casa Café, celebrating community and supporting eight amazing small businesses. Stalls featured everything from Eid cards and crochet pieces to perfumes, Palestinian bracelets, natural oils, and even scrap-made necklaces.
The atmosphere was full of unity as the public came together to browse, connect, and support local creatives. Casa Café, a cosy South Asian café opposite Westminster University, was the perfect venue. A special thank you to Krishna, the founder, whose kindness and hospitality made the day even more memorable.
The event highlighted what London’s Collective stands for: celebrating culture, uplifting small businesses, and bringing people together.

Founders & Creatives Networking – 14th September 2025 kismet cafe Whitechapel E1
On the 14th of September, London’s Collective hosted our very first mixed networking event at Kismet Café in Whitechapel. The gathering brought together founders, entrepreneurs, and creatives in an atmosphere that was both inspiring and welcoming.
The Kismet Café team went above and beyond — their hospitality, the relaxed environment, and the quality of the drinks made the evening unforgettable. Attendees rated their experience a clear 10/10, praising not only the event itself but also the café as the perfect venue.
The event proved to be more than just networking. Attendees shared that they left with new tools, techniques, and perspectives to apply in their personal and professional journeys. Beyond that, many connected with people they hadn’t expected to — strangers became collaborators, and conversations turned into opportunities.
It was a truly wholesome and transformative evening, setting the tone for more impactful mixed events to come.
