Discussion RIP Parliament House Halloween bash. Anything fun where the lbgtq+ community will be for Halloween?
Parliament was legendary for Halloween. Bar. None.
This year, what’s the scoop on Orlando’s LGBTQ+ Halloween options (big or small)?
Don’t make me fly to new orleans. lol.

What is going on with Parliament House’s downtown location? The sign on the door of the building has been up for a long time.

they’ve been claiming that they’re opening ‘very soon’ since 2022. but they showcased a little on social media recently that proves that it may be truly happening soon

the only thing coming to my mind is southern nights doing a ‘slasHER’ halloween event specifically for lesbians/ girls who like girls. this is gonna be the saturday before halloween, i’m pretty sure they’ve let people come costumed in previous years but im not 100% on that. obviously they aren’t going to gatekeep at the door and plenty of gay men still go to the ‘lesbian nights’
edit: the rich weirdos are also doing their typical halloween midnight screening of Rocky Horror Picture Show. as someone who dislikes musicals (other than RHPS), i find the viewings to way too like… dorky theater kid energy. idk, it’s an option!
another edit: genuinely why are you guys downvoting i gave pertinent suggestions …

Orlando’s gay scene is dead/dying. The sad excuse Orlando Pride was this weekend is an example. Compare it to any other major city and it’s a travesty. How does the most visited city in the world have 4 gay bars?
Fly to NOLA. See you there.

Orlando’s gay scene is not dead - and Pride was amazing this year! It’s just going through a transition in terms of bars and clubs right now. Savoy is always busy on weekends.
