Historic gay club in the hearth of Florence. Great music on fri sat with di Dat Vila. Action in the basement. Absolutely do not miss it!

If you're in Florence and want to have a great night out, perhaps meet some nice people, and spend some quality time with some great techno music, you're in the right place. DJ DAT VILA is phenomenal, by the way. I can assure you, I went alone, and besides meeting some really nice, energetic people, the music topped it all off, creating a truly amazing atmosphere. I highly recommend it if you're looking for a great night out in Florence.

We went with a Brazilian couple and were very well received. We loved the different atmosphere.

Don't waste your time going to this place. Bad music and bad drinks. Not to mention that the gay men who frequent the club wait at the door for someone they're interested in to come in, and if they don't like someone, they make faces and comments! Terrible! I don't recommend it. And the place has zero hookups.

Update: Went last night 28/3/26 and I could see massive improvement. The smoke area has door and stronger ventilation so you don’t stink of smoke afterwards anymore. Darkroom has cubicles for privacy which makes it much more enjoyable if you want to play privately. Last night was packed, good vibe. Yes few girls but I guess that’s understandable they don’t really go to the darkroom.
