Part of the Gay Mexico City Guide — bars, events & things to do.

Mexico City, State of Mexico
Three floors of cantina, karaoke, and rooftop on Amberes in Zona Rosa.
A three-floor gay bar and dance club on Calle Amberes, the main drag of Zona Rosa — Mexico City’s historic gayborhood. Each floor runs a different concept: a ground-level cantina decorated with Lotería card imagery, a glass-walled karaoke bar on the second floor, and a rooftop terrace with armchairs and comedy shows overlooking Paseo de la Reforma. Kinky occupies the former space of the Zona Rosa institution Lipstick and sits at the upscale end of the neighborhood’s bar circuit. Go-go dancers, drag shows, and male strippers rotate through the programming. The crowd is young, social, and reliably packed on weekends. Doors open Thursday through Saturday from 9 PM; after 1 AM on peak nights, entry goes to list-only.
