GLBT Friendly
(For Gay, Lesbian, Bisexual & Transgendered Travelers)
We put the “Q” in Albuquerque
By AJ Carian, Assistant Director
Cultural Services Department, City of Albuquerque
Ask any Albuquerquean and they’ll agree: Albuquerque doesn’t just tolerate – rather we celebrate - our diversity.
We are not just a reflection of our beautiful Native influences, or a caricature of a lovely Latino/a face. Instead, Albuquerque is a civic ocean of color and charm collected at the base of the Sandia Mountains. We are certainly a broad and beautiful community.
That said, this site will not direct you to a “gay” neighborhood or club area. Instead, we hope to expand on the fact that Albuquerque is “out all-around” and an open book of experiences waiting to happen. In any one of our special neighborhoods - from Old Town to Nob Hill - a traveler or conventioneer alike, you can shop, eat, and enjoy or indulge in our culture in ways that transcend a common GLBT Visitor Guide narrative.
Whether you’re on a just-for-two lesbian vacation or are traveling with a group of friends, you can feel comfortable in our gay friendly city as you discover special signature destinations that make up the Duke City. You can expect plenty of parks and recreation opportunities in the gay friendly city of Albuquerque, enticing exposures to enchanting art and performance, cuisine that will tear at your taste buds, and “uniquely Albuquerque” sunsets.
Take the time to learn about all of these as you click through. But most importantly, come out and see for yourself!
