About LGBTQ+ Cartagena
Colombia legalized same-sex marriage in 2016, and Cartagena, a walled Caribbean jewel of colonial streets and Baroque churches, pairs that legal openness with a small but exuberant gay scene. The city is warmly welcoming to LGBTQ+ travelers even without a defined gayborhood.
The bohemian district of Getsemaní pulses with art, music, and queer-friendly energy just outside the old walls.

City Club is the main gay club, spinning Caribbean rumba across two dance zones from Thursday to Sunday, while the walled Ciudad Amurallada and Getsemaní hold most of the late-night action.
As across Colombia, the party starts late, rarely filling before midnight.
