Gay ibiza spain

As we've said previously, Ibiza generally is very gay and LGBTQIA friendly, so you will notice welcome in each bar or restaurant, wherever you are on the island.

But there are also many LGBTQIA bars, mostly concentrated in and around Ibiza Town.

Calle de la Virgen is a small pedestrianised highway in the antique port area and the main encounter point of the LGBTQIA scene on the island. Countless small bars, restaurants, boutiques and kink shops line the cobbled lane lit by fairy lights, while drag queens try to lure you into their establishments and the sound of eager voices fills the air. It's so narrow that you can't help but make contact with others. The Catalan name of Calle de la Virgen is Carrer de la Mare de Déu, find it here in Google maps.

Another LGBTQIA hub is the nearby Calle Alfonso XIII, a side highway of Calle de la Virgen(Google maps). In the shadow of the municipality wall you will find one LGBTQIA bar next to the other. On the large terraces and roof terraces a colourful crowd shows off in their most extravagant finery.

Figueretas is a suburb of Ibiza Town and only a 15-minute stroll from the centre. It has a lovely beach and promenade and is very popu

Ibiza is considered one of the highest European LGBTQIA hotspots, with many contending that it's the best of all. Why? Ibiza is a clubbers and hedonists paradise and if that doesn't attract gay and people of all other sexual orientations, we don't recognize what does.

There's so much more to it than that though. Ibiza had one of the first organised, if clandestine, gay scenes in Spain in the 60's – in short the island has a long history with gay culture as you will observe when you saunter around the Male lover and LGBTQIA area in Ibiza Town.

As well as a very good consecrated gay scene, you'll find that many places are mixed: here sexual orientation is pretty much a non-issue. There are some LGBTQIA / mixed nights in the super clubs, though you will find that just about most club nights are going to be LGBTQIA friendly. With so many world-beating and hugely formative club nights, you owe it to yourself to construct it part of your experience.

Gay bars and clubs are mainly located in Ibiza Town, the fortified old town Dalt Vila and the suburb Figueretas – it's the gay hub of the island, especially in and around the street of Calle de la Virgen in the port area where you'll see much col

About Ibiza and its gay life

When dropouts and hippies began to discover Ibiza for themselves in the 1960s, no one would have guessed that the Balearic island would soon become one of Europe's most popular summer tour destinations. Today, more than two million tourists approach to the island every year and the population has more than quadrupled since the 1960s: 150,000 people now live on the island, abou
