Munich
The Glockenbachviertel, by day and by night
The Glockenbachviertel, around Müllerstrasse and Gärtnerplatz, is Munich's LGBTQ+ quarter, a walkable cluster of bars, cafés and clubs. Christopher Street Day in July is the big summer moment, and the Oktoberfest's Gay Sunday at the Bräurosl tent is a tradition of its own.
