Gay Guide to Guadalajara
Guadalajara is one of Mexico's most important gay cities, with two scenes: an upscale nightlife strip in the Zona Rosa around Avenida Chapultepec, and older bars in the historic center. Envy and the multi-level Babel anchor the club scene, with cabaret at spots like Caudillos. The Marcha del Orgullo fills June, one of Mexico's largest Pride marches, drawing tens of thousands. The country's second city, and the home of tequila and mariachi, pairs a strong cultural identity with a busy, growing gay scene.
