LGBTQ+ Safety Notice — HIGH RISK

Same-sex activity is criminalised — discretion essential

Local law: Section 377 Penal Code — up to 20 years prison + caning. State Sharia adds further penalties.

Safety guidance for visitors →

Do not disclose your orientation to hotel staff, drivers, or guides.
Avoid public displays of affection of any kind.
Do not use LGBTQ+ dating apps — police entrapment via apps is documented. If you must, install a VPN before arrival.
Avoid carrying LGBTQ+ identifiers (flags, books, screenshots) in luggage.
Phone searches at airports can include checks for LGBTQ+ content — delete sensitive chats/photos before crossing borders.
If travelling with a same-sex partner, present yourselves as "friends" or "colleagues"; book separate hotel rooms for safety.
Use Signal or Wire for sensitive messaging — not WhatsApp.
Keep emergency cash (USD/EUR) and two separate payment cards.
Stay at international-chain hotels (Hilton, Marriott, Hyatt) — they rarely interrogate guest arrangements.
Register with your embassy on arrival — consular help may be limited.
Share a daily check-in with someone trusted abroad.

Me and my 3 member polycule went here last week looking for a new partner— and we met this man, his name was Uranus. Uranus is a bald slim thick baddie with a VERY beautiful beard, I’m so glad this bar introduced me to our fourth member.

Great show, great atmosphere! The drinks aren't the best, but they're okay. The staff is friendly. You can come and go as you please. The sound can be a bit loud (even for this type of venue).

Great show, first one a bit after midnight (so don’t show up at 12:45 like some reviews say, or you’ll miss the beginning) and another one around 1:30am. Sad it’s the only place like this here, but glad there’s at least one 💜 60 to get in and comes with one free drink !
