Orlando is a city known for its vibrant nightlife and inclusive atmosphere. Whether you're a local or just visiting, the LGBT scene in Orlando offers a variety of bars and nightclubs that cater to everyone. From dance floors that keep you moving all night to cozy spots perfect for a relaxing drink, here's a guide to some of the best LGBT Bars And Nightclubs in Orlando.
Parliament House Orlando
Established in 1975, The Parliament House Orlando holds a piece of Orlando history. With 7 uniquely different bars, you're bound to see ALL walks of life. In addition, you can enjoy a 112 room hotel, swimming pool, cafe, inside/outside stages, and Orlando's largest LGBT dance floor. Parliament House is known for its performers and entertainment, including world-renown drag queens and famous singers such as Keri Hilson, Jennifer Holiday, and Lil' Kim just to name a few.
Southern Nights Orlando
At Southern Nights you can expect to see a line wrapped around the block every Friday and Saturday night. Although the majority of Orlando's LGBT bars and nightclubs welcome ages 18 and up, Southern Nights is definitely known for a younger age bracket. Your best bet is to attend this nightclub on Thursday-Saturday nights. Thursday is their college night, Friday nights are PACKED, and Saturdays are known as Girl The Party (Florida's top-rated largest lesbian night).
Southern Craft
Just right around the corner from Southern Nights Orlando is Southern Craft. This venue prepares specialty, craft cocktails in Orlando and is more of a bar compared to Southern Nights. Owner Rick Kowalczyk says, 'If you're looking for a place to grab a Bud Lite or Miller Lite, I would suggest going next door to Southern Nights."
SAVOY Orlando
Tucked away in Orlando's Ivanhoe Village lies a small gay bar called Savoy. Small only in comparison to the other Orlando LGBT nightclubs/bars. So if a bar atmosphere is more your style, SAVOY Orlando is the place for you. Smoking is no longer allowed inside, so don't light up! Also, the demographic is a little bit older compared to the other bars, but you're bound to see people of ALL ages.
