With a rich history of LGBT activism and a flourishing community, Chicago offers one of the best gay nightlife scenes in the country, particularly in Boystown. Although its formal name is Lakeview, Boystown is the more commonly used named for this famous gay neighborhood. Located on the north side of Chicago, this historic neighborhood has been the center of the city's LGBT community since the s. It's here where you'll find the highest concentration of gay-friendly bars and clubs, where everyone is welcome to be themselves and take pride in who they are and who they love. There's always something new and exciting happening, but for the classic night out in Boystown, stick to the tried-and-trusted watering holes. In Boystown, gay bars abound on and in between the main thoroughfares of Halsted and Broadway.
