The Amsterdam Scene

35 gay venues · 6 gay-friendly venues

Amsterdam is a pioneering LGBTQ+ city — the capital of the first country to legalize same-sex marriage and home to one of the world's most open and celebrated queer cultures. From the iconic Reguliersdwarsstraat to the canal-side bars of Kerkstraat, Amsterdam's queer scene is woven into the fabric of the city.
