Construction Lisbon

At Margem Sul there's a space for anyone, no matter what sort of night you're looking for. In one part of the bar, you'll find a chilled lounge where you can enjoy a great range of drinks, sit back, and relax. Meanwhile, in another part, a cabaret stage hosts flamboyant shows featuring some of the country's most talented drag acts. Margem Sul aims to feel like home, giving you somewhere comfy to enjoy your night and see some unforgettable shows.

Relatively new on the scene, POSH is a popular dance club that attracts a mixed queer crowd for parties every Friday and Saturday night. Resident DJs create a lively atmosphere with a mix of pop, funk, and house. Young and super friendly staff complete your night, serving delicious drinks and adding to the atmosphere. Regular themed nights mean there's always something to keep you entertained when you visit.

Catering to the bear community with a friendly atmosphere and a room full of friendly guys, Shelter Bar is a popular staple on Lisbon's gay scene. For those who enjoy a drink, the bar offers a great selection of wines, gins, and craft beers. Regular bear and drag events keep everyone entertained, while if you're looking for a more relaxed evening then there's the newly opened Shelter Coffee & Gallery that serves Italian snacks and smoothies.

For a decidedly more relaxed and low-key approach to the gay scene, spend an afternoon at Rendezvous. This is a gay-owned cafe and restaurant, with a bar that serves an excellent selection of wine and is proud of its local roots. The kitchen cooks up a great variety of tapas and traditional Portuguese food, so you can visit and enjoy lunch in a super accepting and diverse space.

One of the longest standing gay clubs in Europe and the largest in Portugal, Trumps truly offers something for everyone. Across two dance floors you'll find people dancing to house and pop, and at the three bars you can sample an amazing range of drinks. Friday is popular with a younger crowd while on Saturday nights the space is full of older guys, but Trumps welcomes everyone any night of the week.

Owned by the same group that brings you Woof X, Construction caters to bears of all kinds but welcomes anyone. The club spreads across three floors, with the top floor being a secluded cruising space where you can get the know the guys you've met. The other floors have a modern dance club atmosphere, home to guest DJs and hosting lively parties, bringing ever more exciting concepts to the club.
