Part of the Gay Atlanta Guide — bars, events & things to do.
Atlanta, Georgia
Midtown dance bar at the rainbow crosswalks, with a tiki-bar patio.
At the rainbow crosswalks of 10th and Piedmont, with a big red X marking the wall, X Midtown (formerly TEN) holds one of the most central addresses in Atlanta's gayborhood. It's a single open room with two bars and a dance floor, plus an outdoor patio with a tiki bar and a living plant wall. Programming runs to weekend DJ sets, cabaret performances, and a busy Sunday drag brunch. This is the scene-y, see-and-be-seen end of Midtown nightlife, and the bar doubles as a gathering point well beyond the dance floor, hosting big-name events, community rallies, and political fundraisers. For a visitor it's the easiest landmark to orient a night around: stand on the rainbow crosswalk and you're already there, with Blake's directly across the corner.
