About LGBTQ+ Veracruz
Same-sex marriage is legal across Mexico, and the state of Veracruz recognized it in 2022. The port city of Veracruz, a warm, music-filled hub on the Gulf coast, has a growing gay scene, if a lower-profile one than Puerto Vallarta or Mexico City.
Bars and discos catering to queer crowds gather around the city and its neighbor Boca del Río, where locals and visitors mix in a relaxed, tropical nightlife.
