Gay London

London is home to the most active Grindr users on the planet, meaning that if you're looking for a genuinely gay city, you can't complete much better. The action in London extends beyond the digital dating apps, with the city boasting world-class gay clubs, a treasure trove of cultural sights, and a historical theatre scene in the West End.

It's no private that Soho is the main gay district in London, and this sizeable and central area of the capital is littered with fantastic gay clubs, bars, and gay-friendly hotels. While Soho is home to many of London's most beloved LGBTQ+ institutions, including G-A-Y @ Heaven, there are other hotspots of homosexual culture spread throughout the capital - we love Vauxhall and Dalston for a shamelessly camp night out. 

The nightclubs and bars in the gay East London hotspots of Dalston and Haggerston are decidedly edgier than those in central Soho. It’s here that you’ll find iconic names such as Dalston Superstore. If you’re craving a less high-octane evening, be sure to call on the Royal Vauxhall Tavern, which wears the crown as London
