Gay nightlife in Shenzhen

Hello All,

As a soon-to-be resident of Shenzhen, I'd like to know: How are the nightlife options for Shenzhen's gay community? I know a lot of LGBT people end up hopping a bus for Hong Kong on the weekends, but I'm hoping there are also options available in Shenzhen itself.

Any feedback/advice you can give is greatly appreciated. There was another discussion about this on the forum from a couple years ago, but things change quickly, and info from a couple years ago is probably severely out-of-date. The same goes for listings on Utopia Asia and similar websites, so PLEASE don't bother directing me to them -- all their posts are at least three years old as well!

Thanks for your insights!

hi there! i'm in the same boat as you and not really sure which places to check out..if you're interested maybe we could check out some places together. hope to hear from you soon

new to here too, no idea :(

Have either of you found anything new out? I've been out once to the two options I know of (Ice Cream and Why Not), and wasn't particularly impressed.

Message me if you'd like a friend to check out the bars with. :)
