Cleveland LGBT

With a mayor who created a domestic partner registry to a city that illuminated its most iconic building with the rainbow colors of pride, Cleveland welcomes each and every visitor regardless of sexual orientation, gender identity or gender expression.

Gaze at artifacts from Madonna or Elton John at the Rock Hall, get your Broadway show tune fix at PlayhouseSquare, dine at the restaurants of celeb chefs or take in the boisterous harmonies, glittering sequins and fabulous choreography of a performance by the North Coast Men's Chorus. Or, head over to the trendy neighborhoods of Lakewood, Ohio City, Tremont, Coventry and the Detroit-Shoreway that serve as areas for gay nightlife and culture.

With limitless LGBT friendly fun, it's no wonder The Advocate ranked Cleveland as one of "The Gayest Cities in America."
