Arcigay Arcobaleno Trieste-Gorizia

Arcigay Arcobaleno is the main LGBTQ+ association for Trieste and Gorizia, run by volunteers since 1994. It offers free, anonymous HIV and syphilis testing, psychological and legal support, school education work and rights advocacy. It also holds regular social evenings, including game nights and a monthly meet-up. Trieste has little in the way of gay bars, so these gatherings are one of the easier ways to meet local queer people. The association is based at Via Pondares 8; check its website or social media for current event and testing times.
