About LGBTQ+ Sitges
Sitges is a seaside town just south of Barcelona and Spain's premier gay-beach destination. Its compact old town holds a tight cluster of gay bars around the Placa de la Industria area, and the town has several well-established gay beaches a short walk from the center. The calendar is busy: Sitges Pride in June, Bears Week, and a famous Carnival each draw large international crowds. Walkable and Mediterranean, Sitges pairs daytime beach culture with a concentrated, late-running nightlife.
