Hyde Park

Hyde Park is a central Royal Park, not a venue, and it has a long history as a cruising area. The gates close at midnight, and being inside after closing is an offence under Royal Parks rules, so anything after that is trespassing. Royal Parks police patrol. Cruising itself is not a crime in England, but sex where the public can see it can lead to arrest for outraging public decency or exposure, and in a public toilet it is a specific offence. Robberies and homophobic attacks on men in London parks do happen. Keep your phone charged, carry little, tell a friend where you are, and report incidents to the police or to Galop, the LGBTQ+ anti-violence charity.
