Lots of Fun, Good Music and Style

It wouldn´t be fair to compare Santiago´s gay scene with that of Rio de Janeiro, or even Buenos Aires. However, one thing is certain about the nightlife offers for this niche public at Chile´s Capital: there is no shortage of options! As you already might expect, most of these destinations are located in Barrio Bellavista; not a surprise really, especially when you find out this neighbourhood is one of the city´s most diverse, fascinating and, therefore, sought after destination for an exciting night out, by both the locals and tourists. As for the lively, popular vicinity Providencia; well, although the choices there don´t outnumber downtown´s offerings, there are still enough places where the music and ambiance are exactly what you might be looking for.

Don´t worry, if your stay in Santiago is at either Santiago Downtown or Providencia, you won´t need to go very far at all to spot some of the most popular gay clubs of the city. We have selected a few to give you a head start. At each of the nightclubs listed here lots of good-looking people, amazing soundtracks, playing all night long, and delicious cocktails are, just to say the least, aplenty!

VOX POPULI

A pub, a bar, an art gallery, a place with a lovely open-air terrace where you can just lay-back and sip on a sophisticated cocktail or a hot drink, the right destination during the day and night. Here, Santiago´s general and gay public blend into one. The selection of tapas and drinks on Vox Populi´s menu makes this bar/restaurant also a great choice for a meal with friends or a romantic dinner. The building has two large rooms for art exhibitions as well as an underground floor, where events such as book launches and readings take place. Super trendy!
