Like most European countries, Finland has a great track record in recent years when it comes to progressing LGBTQ rights. Helsinki is no exception and it might just be one of the top gay cities to visit on the continent.
For a fun night out be sure to hit up dtm, the largest gay club in northern Europe, open 365 nights a year. Hercules Gay Night Club is also a fantastic choice for those who like to get their groove on, while Café Cavalier offers a more relaxed vibe.
Kulmakahvio is the perfect place to dine while out exploring the city. It’s cozy, gay-friendly and has a delectable array of entrees and snacks to choose from.
There is no shortage of LGBTQ-friendly accommodations throughout the city, but one truly special one is the Hotel Katajanokka. This unique joint, owned by Best Western, has brick walls amidst a historic prison setting. It’s truly unique. Hotel Finn is another good option as it’s located right next to the central railway station.
Helsinki Pride is held annually during the last week of June, making it the perfect time to explore the city and see everything it has to offer the gay community.
