Overview

This experience was designed to immerse you in Lisbon's Queer Nightlife, creating connections within a welcoming small group.
On this tour, you'll witness an open-hearted community come to life while learning about the Portuguese history and the LGBTQ+ culture in Lisbon.

The focus of this experience turns to the ambiance of each venue.
- You will experience 2 venues and cultural spaces that are currently important for the LGBTQ+ community in Lisbon.
- Learn about their history while sharing tapas and drinks along the way.

The Nightlife Experience is not only a way to connect with the most incredible queer spaces in Lisbon — it's also an opportunity to directly support these venues and services.

This really isn't a bar crawl or a crowded night out — it's an intimate, cozy experience under the night sky, with important glimpses of Portuguese history.
