About LGBTQ+ San Antonio

San Antonio's gay scene runs along North Main Avenue in Tobin Hill, a walkable strip the city designated the Pride Cultural Heritage District in 2025, with rainbow sidewalks and more than a dozen venues. The anchor is Bonham Exchange, a multi-level dance club in an 1891 building open since 1981, with neighbors like Heat and Pegasus. San Antonio Pride fills late June with one of the country's few nighttime parades and a block party on the strip. The city pairs the River Walk and the Alamo with a compact, lively nightlife district.
