Charlotte, North Carolina
Men's bathhouse and sauna off I-77 on Nations Ford Road in Charlotte
Eros Men's Spa is Charlotte's men-only bathhouse, tucked off I-77 on Nations Ford Road near the South Tryon and Woodlawn interchange, south of uptown and well away from the bar strips. It's a no-membership, no-appointment spot: you pay at the door for a day visit, and entry comes with a towel and a private locker. Inside is a straightforward set of wet and dry amenities — a dry sauna, a steam room, a cold room, salt and clay rooms, showers, and a TV lounge to cool down in. It's open daily and keeps things low-key, the kind of place that works as an afternoon reset. For travelers, it's the city's main dedicated men's sauna.

Charlotte has six gay bars and each does something different — the 1968 nightclub, the leather bar, the Latin night and the sports bar. Plus where else to go.

August is summer's grand finale: WorldPride in Amsterdam, Chicago's Market Days, Provincetown Carnival, and the last big beach weekends. Here are the best gay events in August.

Everything you need for Charlotte Pride 2026 — the First Ward Park festival, the Uptown parade down Tryon Street, the weekend's best parties, and where to stay.

Leather bar, bear bar, video bar, tea dance, piano bar, dive. Every type of gay bar explained: what it is, how it started, what a night looks like, and how to find one near you.

Circuit parties are the big dance weekends on the gay calendar. Here's what they are, where the name came from, what actually happens, what to wear, and which one to pick first.

The practical first-timer's guide to drag: what people actually wear, how much cash to bring, how to hand a tip to a queen without making it weird, and what the room expects of you.
