The chic Merchant City, in the eastern part of the central part of town, is home to almost all of Glasgows gay clubs and bars as well as independent art galleries and cafes. Glasgow's gay scene revolves around the hip bars and cafes of this cosmopolitan area. Virginia Street and John Street are loaded with trendy, gay friendly pubs, as are many other streets in this area. Fashionable shops and funky art galleries add an edgy, hip feel to the scene. Gay Glasgewians tend to be friendly and unpretentious, and the nightlife scene reflects this laid-back attitude. Glasgow's fab gay scene is a friendly one, centered around the east quarter of the city, in Merchant City and surrounds. Choice is superb for gay nightclubs, gay saunas, gay clubs and gay bars - there's a Clone Zone shop here too. Glasgow is one of the UK's best homes for live music and the emergence of innovative live bands. Checkout the choice of prime Glasgow club venues.

EasyInstructions for Glasgow Step 1 Check the guides for Glasgow. Bar and travel books often have sections with gay bar listings. This is a good way to find the older, more established bars, though they won't always be the hippest venues. Step 2 Look online. Unlike printed guides, online listings can be updated frequently so they're a good source for current information. Check mainstream sites listing bars, as well as specialist sites like Gay Scotland, Gay to Z and Pink UK. Step 3 Drop into the Glasgow LGBT Centre. Have a drink in the café bar and pick up flyers for bars around town. Step 4 Head for Merchant City in the eastern part of Glasgow and check out the bars on Virginia Street, Wilson Street and Glassford Street. Step 5 Keep your eyes open for leaflets and advertising. Finding one good venue can lead to several others if you collect information as you go. Step 6 Mix and mingle. As you visit bars, talk to people and chat to the bartenders. The locals will be able to give you details on the scene and the best venue
