FAQ

Questions travellers ask GayOut

What is GayOut?
GayOut is an LGBTQ+ travel guide running since 2008. It lists 20,000+ gay-friendly bars, clubs, saunas, beaches and hotels across 996 cities and 138 countries, plus pride parades and circuit parties worldwide.
Which are the most popular gay travel destinations in 2026?
The most-visited gay cities on GayOut are Berlin, Madrid, Barcelona, Amsterdam, London, Tel Aviv, New York, Mexico City, Bangkok and Sydney — each with dozens of LGBTQ venues, annual pride events and visible queer neighbourhoods.
When is the next WorldPride and which prides happen this month?
The next WorldPride is Amsterdam 2026 (Jul 25 – Aug 8) — over a million expected. WorldPride runs every two years, so the next edition after Amsterdam is WorldPride 2028 (host city to be announced). Use the Pride Calendar to filter parades by month and country — 16497 major LGBTQ events are happening this month.
Is it safe to travel as an LGBTQ+ person?
Safety varies widely by country. Use the Gay Travel Index to compare legal rights, social acceptance and risk by destination before booking. Western Europe, Canada, Uruguay, Taiwan and parts of Australia consistently rank as the safest; check current local laws for any destination in the Middle East, Africa or South Asia.
How do I find gay bars and saunas near me?
Open the "LGBTQ+ Near You" panel on the homepage and allow location access — GayOut will list gay bars, clubs, saunas and cruising spots within a few kilometres of you, with ratings and opening hours.
Can I add or claim a venue on GayOut?
Yes. Bar, club, sauna and hotel owners can add a new listing for free, or claim an existing one to manage photos, descriptions and contact details. Verified businesses get a "Claimed" badge and can respond to reviews.
