The Gathering is more than just a restaurant – it’s a dynamic hub of entertainment, known for hosting a variety of popular events. From the intimate and soulful Living Room Sessions to the vibrant Stereo Sessions and exciting Beefeater nights, there’s always something happening. Their lineup of events also includes Reggae Sessions, Pumpkin Paint and Sip, and Ango_Latin, creating a vibrant social scene for Lusaka’s community. They even make appearances at external events such as Safari Groove at Kwisoko Game Ranch and The Hive at Nkwashi Estate.


The Gathering recently hosted one of its signature weekly Outdoor Cinema nights, featuring the nostalgic classic The Princess Diaries starring Anne Hathaway. Amidst a season of loadshedding and the ongoing Premier League matches, The Gathering has become a go-to spot in the city, offering a perfect blend of accessible entertainment, delicious food, and creative cocktails.


Every Wednesday, The Gathering treats patrons to iconic movies for just K250 per person, with a cosy outdoor experience under the trees. Guests are encouraged to book in advance and bring along blankets to fend off the chill of Lusaka’s breezy evenings.
