The biggest event of the year for this engaging city
on the Ohio River is the Kentucky Derby (the first
Saturday in May), which inspires lots of
celebrations, and the bars stay open all night.
Book early because the town fills to capacity.
There's also the St. James Court Art Show in the fall,
and the Breeders Cup in November.
The Word, the SARJ Guide and the
Louisville Letter
cover the gay scene here.
Louisville is home to one of the most
interesting bars anywhere.
Sparks
(104 W. Main) is a trip. Thursdays join the "a
celebration of homosexuality" with go-go boys and
$3 pitchers. Other nights are a mixture of straight,
gay, many ages and colors, packed into the three
bars that throb to various alternative beats. There's
a dance floor in back, but the whole place is in
motion. I wondered, awed by one guy's moves,
"how did he do that back flip?" The bartender
sometimes belches fire, and the
recent "bare as you dare" party was wonderfully
outrageous. There's some fresh air take-a-break
space, too.
Life partners Yancy and Greg welcome you
to Score
(252 E. Market), the sharp video bar in the heart of
gay Louisville. They have strippers on Fridays and
Saturdays,
pool tables, hi-energy music dancing on Fridays
and Saturdays in the new back-room dance club,
and a friendly and comfortable atmosphere always
for meeting local people
and visitors. On Sunday nights there are drag show
benefits; Tuesdays feature swing music and dance
lessons; and on Wednesdays there's Karaoke.
Other bars include: Connection (120 S. Floyd),
a big dance club with a fireplace lounge, and a drag
pageant show theater;
Teddy Bear's (1148 Garvin
Place), an
intimate locals' nook;
Tryangles (209 S. Preston);
and
Tynker's Too (319 E. Market).
