La Parranda Karaoke Bar

La Parranda is a lively karaoke bar in Ensenada's Colonia Maestros, east of the downtown core along Calzada Cortez. It has become one of the city's dependable LGBTQ+ nightspots, mixing open-mic karaoke with regular drag shows — the venue has hosted performers associated with the Mexican drag competition “La Más Draga.” Expect a friendly, mostly local crowd, Latin-pop and banda sing-alongs, and weekend drag nights that draw the queer community. It sits a short taxi or rideshare ride from the Zona Centro bars, and reviewers highlight the welcoming atmosphere and energetic hosts. Google rating around 4.4.
