Gay Guide to Philadelphia

Philadelphia's Gayborhood is one of the most clearly marked in the country, a cluster around 12th, 13th, and Camac Streets with rainbow street signs and crosswalks. Woody's on 13th has anchored the nightlife for over 40 years, with dive-bar character at Dirty Franks and a newer outpost of The Little Gay Pub nearby. The Philly Pride March & Festival takes over the neighborhood in June, stepping off near Independence Hall. The city pairs a walkable, historic center with a dense, community-driven scene that stays busy year-round.
