5 best LGBTQIA+ hotspots in Rio de Janeiro

June is here and with it the pride month, so let's enjoy this special month for LGBTQIA+ people! Rio de Janeiro is the perfect place to enjoy diversity and live incredible tours. We at Omar do Rio, have separated the hottest things to do in the city, so check out these tips to play:

  1. Boleia Bar: a lesbian bar in the heart of Botafogo, made from woman to woman, but embraces everyone with open arms. It is a point full of energy and with a wonderful vibe.
  2. Pink Flamingo: Rio's top gay/queer club, located on Copacabana beach. It works in the American pub style and always has the presence of our drag queens running the party. Each day of the week, there are different styles of music for everyone to throw themselves on the dance floor.
  3. Galeria Café: a party house in Ipanema that hosts an incredible variety of traveling parties. Every day there's a different kind of party: bear party, drag queen contest, pop party, that party that only plays Madonna, samba and Brazilian music. It's guaranteed fun, my friend!
  4. Bar das Quengas: an iconic and super old bar in Rio de Janeiro, located in the bohemian neighborhood of Lapa. It has become increasingly frequented by LGBTQIA+ people and could not be left out of this special guide for pride month. It is perfect for lunch, dinner, snacks and a warm-up before going out for the night.
  5. Bar Dellas: located in the Gamboa neighborhood, it is a mega inclusive and accessible bar. It has a presence of amazing DJs and a super diverse audience. It's the right place to enjoy a sound, dance and have fun.

So, let's enjoy these wonderful tours in Rio de Janeiro! Be who you are, celebrate diversity and let's go to this party together!
Get closer. Let's go together!
