Gay bars italy
When we first visited, we were very excited to find a gay bar in Venice and spent a lot of age researching ‘gay bars Venice, Italy’.
For such a popular and trendy destination, we were surprised to find a lack of homosexual bars or gay clubs in Venice [no_toc]
In fact, we create that the nightlife scene here is very relaxed, easy going and involves having many Aperols (which we love). Venice is a super romantic city and we found that it was a great option for us visiting as a gay couple.

Gay Bars in Rome
Maybe you wonder why this list of gay bars in Rome is so short. One reason is that pure bars just for drinking and socializing are less common in Italy. When Italians encounter their friends, for instance, eating together plays a more important role.
If they go out to the same-sex attracted scene later on, it's rather to the parties or cruise clubs.
Some gay bars, partys and clubs in Rome call for a membership card. Often that is the ARCO (Anddos) card. If you don't have an ARCO card yet, you can usually acquire it ( €) at the entrance of the venues that expect the card. When you acquire the card you want to show your photo ID, after that you only need the membership card.
