About LGBTQ+ La Paz
Bolivia's constitution bans discrimination based on sexual orientation, and same-sex civil unions have been recognized since 2020, though marriage is not and the country remains largely conservative. La Paz, the dramatic high-altitude seat of government, holds most of the nation's modest queer nightlife.
The scene centers on a small number of clubs, chief among them Centric Club, an openly gay venue that doubles as a community gathering place with regular themed nights.
