The Football Black List Regional Celebration arrived in the capital on Wednesday 17th December 2025, taking place at the heart of the Black community in the iconic Brixton House.
Delivered in partnership with The London Football Association, and supported by the FA, the event recognised and celebrated Black achievement across London’s football community — from grassroots and community champions to leaders driving progress in the professional game.
The regional celebration series shone a light on individuals and organisations making a difference in their local areas, complementing the annual Football Black List National Celebration, which honours contributions from across the UK football industry.
Hosted by renowned content creator and presenter Tyra Mills, the evening brought together influential figures from across the football industry and wider sporting landscape. Guests included Hope Powell CBE, one of the most influential figures in the history of women’s football and former Premier League and international manager Chris Hughton.
The London event followed successful regional celebrations in Liverpool and Bristol earlier in 2025, continuing the mission to showcase the depth of talent and impact within Black communities throughout the game.
