Lusitano, which markets itself as an inclusive LGBTQ+ venue in Porto, sadly operates a homophobic and discriminatory door policy. As three gay men, one of whom is non-Caucasian, we were refused entry to the club for no other reason other than Lusitano door staff’s being openly anti-gay and racist. Please do not visit this venue and boycott it as it not only contravenes EU anti discrimination laws, but in 2023 should not be allowed to remain open and operate under the guise of being queer and inclusive when it is actually an anti-gay and openly racist venue.
