Augustine – Just a two-hour drive from Orlando, St. Augustine is the oldest European-settled town in the U.S. It’s also named after the patron saint of brewers – do with that information what you will.

With interactive exhibits, a petting zoo, and opportunities to hold a baby alligator, it’s an exciting experience for all ages. The town hosts several annual festivals, including the Mount Dora Arts Festival and the Mount Dora Craft Fair, attracting artists and crafters from across the country.

Barcodes

Just north of College Park Main Street, and close to Winter Park, Barcodes is a gay nightclub owned by a local gay couple who has been serving the community since 2009.

They have a stylish cocktail lounge, a spa, a rooftop pool with panoramic views, a whirlpool, and a fitness center. Do keep in mind when planning your trip that Orlando is quite sprawling, with neighborhoods clustered around lakes, so a car rental will serve you well—just make sure to have a designated driver when you head out for the night!

The city’s downtown neighborhoods, especially Ivanhoe Village, offer community-friendly (and, no doubt, dance-friendly!) with some of the best gay bars in Orlando.

Thanks to a full calendar of queer events and some super camp locals, the nightlife scene here is always buzzing!
