Hamburg Gay and Lesbian Travel

Hamburg’s Lange Reihe Street could be renamed Gay Place. Enjoy a neighborhood of mixed straight and gay families shopping, drinking coffee, chatting, and living alongside one another. Bring your dance moves and stunna shades to “Love Pop” a Hamburg-Altona Gay party held on Wednesdays and every second Friday of the month (www.kir-hamburg.de). Visit www.hinnerk.de to keep abreast of Hamburg’s hottest gay parties.

Cafe Gnosa, Lange Reihe 93 (tel: 040 24 30 34; www.gnosa.de) A Hamburg institution, if an unconventional nightlife pick.

Hamburg’s first gay bar has a laid-back, yet sophisticated atmosphere, with damask walls and revolving art exhibitions in the back room.

Kyti Voo, Lange Reihe 82 (tel: 040 28 05 55 65; www.kytivoo.de) This large and relaxed gay bar keeps things upbeat with quiet electro beats and strategic red lights and disco balls.

Espresso €1.60. Beer €2.90. Cocktails €5.50-8. Open M-F 9am-late, Sa-Su 10am-late.
