Atlanta's Gay Scene
Midtown Atlanta is the gay neighbourhood — Peachtree Street, 10th Street, and the blocks around Piedmont Park. Key venues include Blakes on the Park (the neighbourhood bar), Jungle (large club), The Heretic (leather and cruise bar), and Blake's. Atlanta Pride is in October (originally October to commemorate the 1969 riots) and is one of the largest in the South, centred on Midtown and Piedmont Park.
