GO Gay Bars in Blackpool |
|
|
|
 |
Those looking for great
unpretentious camped-up fun will not be disappointed in Blackpool,
as the town is packed to bursting with drag queens and gay-friendly
pubs and clubs. One of the biggest hits in gay Blackpool over the years is drag cabaret show Funny Girls [map] on Dickson Road. Of course, these days the audience is more hen parties than gay couples but it’s still worth checking out if you want a few laughs. Situated next door to the Funny Girls’ establishment is Bar B [map] , a large retro club, playing mainstream 80s and 90s music to a fun-seeking mixed crowd. The newest gay club on the block is Roxy's [map] on Queen Street, which has a Gothic-style interior, sea views from the balcony and attracts a fairly mixed crowd, including plenty of drag queens. Blackpool’s main gay street is Talbot Road, where you’ll find an array of fun and stylish bars, including Pepe's Bar [map], a huge basement bar with a friendly atmosphere and good choice of drinks. Just down the road is Mardi Gras [map], where local drag legend Stella Artois rules the show. This is a cool bar with great disco music and cabaret entertainment every night of the week. Located next door to a hip-and-happening gay nightclub, The Flying Handbag [map] is situated near the end of Talbot Road. This place is usually bursting at the seams with partygoers and has a more relaxed atmosphere than some of the other gay bars. And then you can head on to the 1,800 capacity superclub, The Flamingo [map], which has four floors and two large dance floors, and is open until 2am six nights a week. This place attracts an attractive young crowd and plays great cheesy music. If you want to comment on our choices or recommend somewhere, why not use our What You Recommend form to let us know. |
