About this Event

A night of legacy, culture, and unapologetic pride.

Join us at The Gorton Monastery Manchester on Thursday 25th September from 7:00pm as we launch Black History Month in true Pan-African style marking 80 years since the historic 5th Pan-African Congress, right here in Manchester.

A momentous occasion in 1945 helped shape Africa’s future igniting the fight for independence across the continent and planting seeds of unity, resistance, and revolution.Now, eight decades on, we gather to reflect, remember, and celebrate its enduring legacy.

Expect an evening rich in culture, music, reflection, and community celebration. There’ll be live performances, keynote messages, and creative showcases honouring Black resistance and excellence from the past, present and future.



Why attend?
  • Celebrate Black History Month with purpose and passion
  • Discover the global significance of the 5th Pan-African Congress
  • Connect with changemakers, community leaders and cultural champions
  • Be inspired, empowered and uplifted

All are welcome. Come experience culture, unity and celebration and be part of the story that is changed the world.
