They often have happy hours, which offer the best drink deals in the city, but the promotion times vary, so make sure to check what they have on offer when you visit. There’s a nice mix of other tunes too – mostly K-Pop – but you’ll also hear a few canto pop and J-Pop hits.

As for the drinks, they don’t require a cover charge or have minimum consumption rules.

People simply enjoy a drink, chat, or have a small dance party to themselves.

Drinks are cheap at only around $90 per option. Dates: 22 December – March 1, 2026.

Hong Kong Pride – The Hong Kong Pride Parade has taken place annually since October 2004. Accessible via the historic Peak Tram, the journey itself is an attraction all on its own, climbing steeply through lush greenery.

But while it can feel packed, it’s not too noisy and you can definitely still carry out a conversation amidst the sounds.

Everybody in Hong Kong knows FLM.

This iconic gay bar is the perfect place to enjoy cocktails and, to be honest, the liveliest crowd you’ll ever encounter in the city.

Beyond the company and drinks, you can’t skip this bar without seeing their shows. Essentially, a collection of boats filled with hot, dancing men and DJs gather by South Bay to party throughout the day.

In addition to the annual pride parade and a number of events during pride month in June, queer folk and allies can visit gay bars and nightclubs. This neighbourhood gay bar has a chilled vibe, with exceptional cocktails. Most likely, you’ll want the red one, which serves all of Hong Kong Island and Kowloon and costs roughly US$35–$40.

You can easily get around the city using the MTR (public transit system), which is convenient and inexpensive.

Transportation & Airport Transfer

The best way to get to the city from the airport is The Airport Express. They aim to bring something new to the party scene and curate an eclectic array of gatherings for the LGBTQIA+ community. Understanding the gay scene is much more easily done with the help of a local and home-sharing is one of the best ways to meet someone living in the city who knows how things work, where and when are the best nights to go out, and what places to eat at and which to avoid.

Further down the road, South Bay also has a ‘gay section’, which is the left end of the beach.
