Friend SHIP Yokohama

Friend SHIP Yokohama (Friend SHIPよこはま) is an LGBTQ+ community space and consultation service backed by Yokohama City and run with the local NPO SHIP. It is in Nishi Ward. People use it to meet others, get peer support and find information on city services, including Yokohama's same-sex partnership system. This is a community resource, not a social venue for tourists. Opening days are limited and most of the information is in Japanese. Check the city's page (linked on this listing) for current dates and to see if a consultation needs booking.
