About LGBTQ+ San Juan
As a US territory, Puerto Rico has had same-sex marriage since 2015. San Juan's warm, cosmopolitan culture and beaches draw queer travelers from across the Americas.
Most of the nightlife is in Santurce, the city's arts district. Toxic, a two-story late-night club on Calle Condado, and SX The Club on Avenida Ponce de León both do drag shows and go-go dancers, and Kweens Klub, open since 2021, runs a weekly drag show with celebrity guests.
