Ibiza is a gay-friendly destination. The island boasts a wide choice of parties as well as a great atmosphere both by day and night which caters for all types of clientele and where LGTB visitors will feel totally at ease. There are many gay bars and clubs on Ibiza, but it is worth highlighting that, unlike other destinations where the gay offer is in specific areas or premises, the general feel on Ibiza is totally liberal and openminded towards all sexual orientations, so if you are gay you will feel welcome at any party or in any bar. Before we go on to detail some of the more famous gay bars and clubs, we wish to point out that the Port area of Ibiza town and, in particular, the Calle de la Virgen with its bars, shops and sex-shops, cater specifically for the gay tourist.
Lola’s
This small club is located on Calle Alfonso XII nº 9, on the ground floor of Angelo’s Bar. It is popular, with a large terrace, nearly always free entrance and open at weekends in Winter. In some way it has filled the vacuum left by the now disappeared discotheque Anfora which for many years was the only specifically gay club on the island

La Troya
Special mention is due to this iconic party, one of Ibiza’s most famous, created by Brasilio de Oliveira over 30 years ago. It has been held in the most famous island discoteques, the likes of Space and Amnesia, but for the last couple of summers it has moved to the club Heart Ibiza. Although this party is aimed at persons of any sexual orientation, it has traditionally been a favourite with the gay community and is an absolute must if you want to enjoy a wild night on Ibiza.
