Consolação and the surrounding area contains most of Sao Paulo’s gay clubs. A lot of venues are located on Frei Caneca (known as “gay” Caneca), the city’s main gay street – the place to be and be seen if you’re a scene queen. It’s also great for shopping during the day.
One of the Largest Gay clubs in São Paulo with multiple dance floors. Bubu Lounge is particularly popular on a Friday night. It often draws a younger crowd.
On Saturdays the Bubu Só Pra Elas nights attract a big lesbian crowd.
This is definitely a good place to dance the night away. As the night progresses shirts will no doubt be taken off.
Located in the Frei Caneca (some say “gay” Caneca) district, Aloka is the main nightclub in the area. Centrally located by the swanky Higienópolis neighbourhood, this is a good choice if you don’t want to venture too far into the outskirts of the city.
Doors open at midnight and the place starts to get busy a couple of hours later.
Here you’ll find a 20 and 30-something crowd.
If you’re around the Caneca district in the early hours then this is the place to be.
