Flux

Reload is LA's favourite Saturday night into Sunday morning gay club and party space in the heart of Hollywood. This after-hours dance club hosts DJs from across the world to provide first-class music for weekly events and parties. Reload is super popular with tourists as well as the local queer community, so the dance floor is always packed, the music is the best in the area, and the loud and lively atmosphere makes for a great night.

Roosterfish hosts inclusive parties on L.A.'s Westside in Venice. Opened in the 80s as a safe haven for the queer community, Roosterfish is now a modern and equally inclusive bar that has not forgotten its roots and status as one of the oldest venues on Abbot Kinney Blvd. It's a favourite of the local queer community, who enjoy the kitschy gay bar featuring pool tables, jukebox tunes & local artwork. The bright interior and modernised drinks have kept this iconic bar relevant.

Gay Night Club in Long Beach with dancing, karaoke, and drag shows. There's a different party feel on each floor so you can always find something to your taste. The top floor hosts drag acts and dancers, the main floor has games and a karaoke lounge, and the lower level is an event room available for parties and private functions. Something different happens every night of the week so it never gets boring in the Executive Suite.

The Bullet Bar is a no attitude men's leather bar in North Hollywood. It claims to have the longest and best happy hour in the valley, running every day of the week with super cheap draft beers, but the drinks aren't the only things that attract a crowd. The casual atmosphere, good pub food, and lively events make this the place for a fun night out with friends. This dive bar is a popular local hangout and definitely worth visiting.

Precinct is downtown LA's largest LGBTQ bar, known for its rock music, drag shows, and parties. Events held here attract many big names in LA's contemporary nightlife, as well as rock and roll lovers from the local queer community. On the second floor you can find a bar, dance floor, stage, and a terrace with views over the exposed brick decor. It's the perfect spot for a beer, while elsewhere in the club you can dance with an eclectic crowd.

Flux was voted by the LA Hotlist as the number one gay bar in Los Angeles County. It's a vibrant and happening hangout for the queer community, both local and tourist, and offers pool tables, TVs, and a patio for a quieter night. Entry is normally free, and drinks are always cheap and served by a number of attractive bartenders. The bar is always pleasantly busy with a good atmosphere and lots of friendly customers.
