Gay & Lesbian Stockholm
Stockholm is a popular gay spot with rainbow flags in every district of the city. It has become a hot tourist destination for homo-bi-trans persons, and many like it here because of the Swedish people’s progressive view of HBT issues. But most come here for Stockholm’s glittery parties, charming rainbow cafés, and summer’s big Pride Festival.
Stockholm has no specific gay district; you’ll find gay- and lesbian-friendly bars and clubs in Gamla Stan and Södermalm, as well as Kungsholmen and downtown. For more detailed information on nightlife and what’s happening right now, go to www.qx.se, a webzine geared to gay audiences. You'll also find news, useful tips and guides on the website of Stockholm Gay & Lesbian Network, which is part of Stockholm Vistors Board.
