Best gay clubs in melbourne

Formerly Melbourne’s only “bear and leather” bar, The Laird is one of the country’s longest running homosexual bars, being place to the lgbtq+ community since 1980. Just off Hoddle St in Abbotsford, is as skillfully known locally as it is internationally. With three bars, a huge beer garden and one-of-a-kind accommodation options upstairs, it’s a superb place to connect up with other men and contain some fun.

The venue is open 7-nights a week too, with saucy theme nights and events running all-year-round, including the Bare Arse/Wet Jock night, Bearfest and underwear parties. They host weekly nights including a pool comp on Tuesdays, Trivial Hirsute trivia nights on Wednesdays dubbed the “cheekiest trivia in town” and Hum Stud karaoke on Friday nights, there’s plenty of amusing to be had with the fellas. Having being granted an male-only exclude status by VCAT means that The Laird is exclusive to same-sex attracted cisgender and trans person males, however the bar opens its doors to the wider community for annual events fancy the Vic Leather Open Day, Men on Men Night and Northside Bizarre.
