Top Gaycations

Gay events have gone global, creating endless opportunity to get your gay on. “The circuit” is an accurate description for the thousands of parties that have cropped up around the rainbow of Pride events

When loving your gays means so little time, so little money, and so many parties, you really need to plan ahead. The list below is merely a sampling of the standards. Create your own itinerary and you can go on gaycation – any day of the year, anywhere in this world.




Atlanta, “Hotlanta”

Steamy southern charm, sultry weather, and hot guys.

Provincetown, “P-Town”

A gay enclave of summer fun and frolic on the very end of Cape Cod.

Fire Island (Cherry Grove and Fire Island Pines)

No cars allowed, so the muscle boys in their designer swimwear cart around red wagons to load in for holiday weekends. Between towns is a stretch of woods called “the meat rack,” so if taking a leisurely stroll, take care not to trip over a trick.

Miami and South Beach (Winter Party)

These two towns love and appreciate the gays – rich, famous, beautiful and outrageous gays who, in addition to great weather, beaches, and nightlife make these cities a gay destination.

Palm Springs – The White Party

Known as a gay retirement community, the Palm Desert is home to the world-famous White Party, with poolside parties and clothing-optional fun in the sun.

New York – The Black Party

A leather event/sex party of tremendous scale with historic roots dating back 30 years.

San Francisco Pride

Yes, we know…Pride parades everywhere now but you have to pay homage to the city known as “Sodom by the Bay” and home to the Gay Flag.

New Orleans – Halloween and Southern Decadence

No one does it like the Big Easy.

Sydney Australia – Mardi Gras

One of the largest gay pride parades events in the world. Very mixed and inclusive.

Montreal – Black and Blue

Ummm, lets see, they recognize gay marriage, it has a stunning old town and lots of gay owned businesses which means there are fab places to stay and great food to eat, and there are really cute Canadian boys everywhere. What’s not to like. Black and Blue Festival is one of the world’s largest circuit events and is very mixed with gay, straight, undeclared.

Brazil – Rio Carnival or NYE

As Suzan says “There are three types of men, Gay, Straight, and Brazilian”. On every fag and hag’s must do list.

Spain – Ibiza

The party island that does not sleep. Go to the large outdoor clubs and dance in the sultry air, or relax beachside. Either way eyefuls and oodles of eye candy.

The Netherlands - Amsterdam Pride

Amsterdam is such a fantastically beautiful, historic city. Add to that their permissive relaxed attitude about sex and boats for floats and you have an amazing pride vacation.

The Gay Cruise

Or if the gay travel tax proves to be too high to take multiple trips, go with a gaggle of your bff boys and soon to be bff’s on a gay cruise and see many amazing locations, while attending spectacular on board parties and mixers (all themed….plan on being over your weight limit for baggage), entertainment galor, and fantastic food served round the clock. No pre-labeled dining seating…no formal nights (maybe formal toga night) and NO screaming kids. Lots of muscle, speedos, and hunky manliness abound. Even the boat staff loves the boys. They tip, are respectful, know how to have a good time.

Warning – this is not for the tourist hag or converter. You are on a boat. A gay boat. You will be outed as a straight girl, a pariah if you don’t participate, it is full frontal get-your-gay-on 24/7 and ½. You will not get laid, unless you bring a vibrator.
