Best gay bar stockholm

Being older than years, Stockholm today is a modern, technologically-advanced, liberal and ethnically diverse city. Many visitors are impressed by the beauty of the city on the fourteen islands and enjoy the relaxed and friendly atmosphere. Sweden is one of the most liberal countries in the world regarding gay rights.

It was one of the first countries introducing civil unions and anti-discrimination laws.

LGBTQ+ Events & Clubs

People in Sweden — and especially in Stockholm — are quite open-minded and many hotels, cafes, restaurants and bars are explicitly LGBT-friendly. Stockholm is often called the gay capital of Sweden and even of Scandinavia. However, due to the small population in Sweden and Stockholm you shouldn't expect a large gay scene.

Stockholm certainly is not a heaven for cruising in saunas or clubs, but it is a relaxed and pleasant place for socialising in tasteful gay and gay-friendly cafes, restaurants and clubs. Annual gay highlight in Stockholm is the Gay Pride festival at the end of July or beginning of August.
