Vela Gay Club

Went a couple of weeks ago and it was closed on a Friday. Is this place still open?

At Vela, we danced all night with Copenhagen’s dykes n’ queers. When the owner learned that my girlfriend is Brazilian, she insisted on putting some Brazilian music on the playlist. It was hilarious to watch Danes frightened off the dance floor by the sounds of baile funk, but the few who stuck around dropped their butts to the grimy, beerslicked floor. At Vela, I saw one of the drunkest women I’ve yet beheld, a lumbering blonde who was playing a strange and kinky game with a cute brunette in which the brunette invited the blonde in for a kiss, only to coyly, gently shove her away just before contact. When after several rounds the brunette finally let herself be kissed, the blonde was so gobsmacked that she fell to the ground like a tree beneath a lumberjack’s axe. She lay in a puddle of booze, staring up, eyes wide, her face lit with wonder and surprise at her good fortune.

Absolutely amazing little bar, the owner is very friendly and will happily chit chat with you! The lovely owner speaks English very well and so as tourists we felt very comfortable and welcomed. Epic taste in dance music too!

if you want a (lesbian) relaxed and very chill bar/club, then this is the place to go. it just feels like a common room where everyone just does their own thing and has a good time. and for those who want more action, they have table football, it's actually a really really good idea. AND AND AND they have the BEST strawberry shots!!!!!

Lov it

I wouldn't exaggarate if I say: It's worth to come to Copenhagen just to come to Vela;) Amazing people, warm atmosphere, good drinks and devoted, hardworking stuff. Music? Today they started with Britney and more music from 00s and 10s ❤️🧡💛💚💙💜

Safe space, all are welcome. Great that LBTQ+ women have this space! It is more a pub than a club as everyone is sitting. It is true that one if the waitresses could be nicer...
