Castro's


Straight-friendly gay club
72-73 Old Market Street
Old Market
Bristol BS2 0EJ
United Kingdom
Walk on to the dance floor at this gay, but straight-friendly, venue and your heartbeat will automatically begin jumping in time with the techno music that makes the walls vibrate. When you've had enough of dancing, you can retire upstairs to the friendly, quieter lounge area where you'll find seating. With a capacity of 150, it's certainly cosy — particularly since one of the dance floors is a narrow old bowling alley. The dim lighting, glow in the dark details and resident DJ adds atmosphere, while the late license ensures you can shake your thing until it's nearly dawn amid a lively, charged crowd.

Queenshilling


Bristol's 21st century gay venue
9 Frogmore Street

Equally loved by Bristol's gay and straight communities, this is a great place, full of friendly faces and a welcome relief from the sameness of many of the city centre bars. There are DJs throughout the week, usually playing a mixture of chart hits and house, although a regular RnB night is coming soon. Particularly popular are the student nights on Thursdays (free admission) and the Galaxy 101 nights on Fridays and Saturdays - Galaxy is a Bristol radio station which plays chart and cheesy house to the masses. On the rare occasion that the dancing becomes too much, there are more sedate areas for you to sit and chat with your friends.

Revenge, Insomnia and Bizarre at Castro's


Who needs to sleep?
Castro's
72-73 Old Market Street
Bristol BS2 OEJ
United Kingdom
+44 117 922 0774 / +44 117 922 6969
The first Saturday of each month at Club Castro is devoted to fetish night Spank. But if that's not your scene, try later in the month. On the second Saturday of each month is club night Revenge, with garage and funky house upstairs and hard house and trance elsewhere (10p-6a). On the third Saturday of the month is Insomnia, with an identical music policy as above, plus open-decks in the basement (10p-8a). The fourth Saturday sees club-night, Bizarre, offering more of the same (10p-6a). No matter which Saturday you go, it's always three manic rooms and one manic night. Forget sleep and party your way into Sunday!
