Gay places hamburg
After spending a VERY intense week celebrating Pride in Berlin, we only had a few days to recover before it was time to do it all over again for Hamburg Gay Pride!
Prior to our visit, we knew absolutely nothing about Hamburg, let alone what to expect from ‘gay Hamburg’. We didn’t know Hamburg is actually the second largest city in Germany, after Berlin. And we certainly didn’t know it offers one of the biggest and best Lgbtq+ fest parades, with over 15, participants, plus spectators!
We soon realised that whilst not having the same wide-spread reputation as Berlin, Hamburg is just as supportive of the LGBTQ+ group, and still has a vibrant and diverse gay-scene. And just like Ber
Nightlife
Hamburg’s friendly, uncover vibe has made the city a favourite destination for LGBTQIA+ visitors. The local scene is most lively in the quarters St. Georg and St. Pauli where you’ll spot plenty of gay-friendly locations. Below we've given you a head start with some of our favourite LGBTQIA+ spots in Hamburg.
St. Georg
Located next to Central Station, St. Georg is an excellent place to launch your Hamburg excursion. The quarter’s centre of the action is Lange Reihe, along which you'll uncover loud and proud lgbtq+ bars next to cosy cafés, restaurants and shops flying the rainbow flag. For delectable home-made cakes in a chic interior, check in Café Gnosa. A couple of doors down, you'll find Cafe Uhrlaub, where you can drop in for German-style breakfasts and hot meals any hour of day. Order a gin & tonic in a cosy booth at M&V Bar, or depart for cocktails in the dimly-lit setting of Kyti Voo. Along Danziger Straße, you'll find literature, clothing and erotic paraphernalia at Bruno’s and good business in Bellini Bar.
St. Pauli
Hamburg’s famous entertainment and red light district St. Pauli is known for its welcoming, laissez-faire attitude. The Reeperbahn main street and su

About Hamburg and its gay life
The Free and Hanseatic City of Hamburg – Germany's ›Gateway to the World‹ – is the second largest city in Germany after Berlin, and also an independent state. It is located about km southeast of the North Sea along the river Elbe and has the largest seaport in Germany. Because of the port, the pent-up river Alster and the numerous canals and smaller rivers Hamburg is one of the cities in Europe with the most bridges.
The settlement history of Hamburg began with the Saxons in the 4th century BC. In the 9th century a castle named Hammaburg was built in this place, from which the call Hamburg derived. In the 12th century the settlement was given the port law (Hafenrecht) and special trade privileges which allowed Hamburg to develop into a flourishing commercial center during the Middle Ages. As a member of the Hanseatic League it evolved into a world trading center in th
