Berlin Gay Dance Clubs & Parties

Launched in August 2015, B:EAST is a large monthly techno dance party for gays and friends, taking place at the best clubbing venues in Berlin.

Photos and details about upcoming parties can be found on their website or Facebook page.

One of the best dance clubs in Europe, located in a former power plant in East Berlin, Berghain has become an epicentre for club-goers from around the world, with its a huge main floor, superb sound system and amazing lineup of DJ’s who pump out the best music.

Upstairs is the Panorama Bar which has a slightly more civilised vibe and excellent city view. (Lab-oratory, a men-only sex club, is a separate venue in the basement with its own entrance and queue.)

Before you can experience Berghain, you need to get past the very selective door security team, headed by Sven Marquardt. Sven said in a interview that there are no set rules and that he looks to get the right balance of people.

Berghain started out as a gay club but now attracts a mixed crowd. Some say that being gay, looking mid 20’s or older and wearing darker colours (nothing too flashy) will improve your chances of entry. Arriving drunk are definite no-no’s. But once you’re in, the experience is amazing.
