Klubber (formerly Bar Le Kult)

In beautiful Vieux Nice, one of the most popular and characteristic areas of the city of Nice, one can find a strong mix of both the locals and tourists alike strolling through the colorful myriad of streets with its many shops, bars and restaurants.
Klubber could easily be considered just another one of those bars thrown in the mix of this part of town. From first glance it appears like your average hangout but fortunately for the gay audience, it has also become a staple in the community as a unique after-hours nightclub location.

As per usual during the summer in the French Riviera, many pop-up nightclubs appear up and down the coastline enticing everyone to come and join in the high season fun. Having an impromptu get together is almost a way of life in this region in France, so is partying into the late hours and usually well after the sun has come up.

But unlike the majority of the pop-up nightclubs that only tend to exist during the summer months, something about Klubber has stuck with the gay community in Nice for almost two years now.

Already long established as a predominately straight yet gay-friendly bar/nightclub with its wide selections of cocktails and trendy décor, the gay after-hours affect has brought a whole new lease on life into the place and now the tables have turned toward the club being more on the gay side of things.

With what started as a once, maybe twice a month after-hours gay club night at Klubber has now become a regular weekend and holiday favorite thanks to the After Kosmik event group.

Every weekend event means a different DJ, which thankfully also means a fresh sound to dance and socialize too from 5am to 10am.

When you can’t get enough of the party spirit, Klubber is the place to come too! If meeting the locals is what it is all about for you, you won’t find a friendly bunch! No attitude, no shirts and plenty of smiles all around!

Lou Queernaval

In a first for at the city of Nice and a first for the country of France comes the premier of Queernaval!

Held every February, the historic Nice Carnival has been a tradition in the French Riviera for well over 100 years and is the second largest carnival in the world after the Rio Carnival.

When this time of year approaches, it’s not unusual for the city to receive a mid-winter boom to tourism with over a million visitors during the two weeks of carnival celebrations, but in 2015 this program will get a whole lot more colorful.

Lou Queernaval is a free event being brought together by key members of the local LGBTQI associations and for the first time they are working with the organizers to play a extensive part in the carnival for the February 27th 2015 Queernaval date.

The Queernaval event will showcase a natural camaraderie held in the community by being a component to the Nice Carnival festivities!

The events surrounding the days and nights of the Nice Carnival always put the city in a festive mood with its vast displays of flowers, costumes and massive floats that make their way through the center of Nice celebrating the spirit of this exceptionally beautiful and forward thinking city.

 

And you can bet that as the date approaches, not only with Lou Queernaval be a spectacular event in which to attend but members of the LGBTQI community will be planning all kinds of special parties surrounding this most memorable moment in Nice Carnival history.

If you would like to show your support, fundraising efforts are underway so the LGBT community can put on the most spectacular show ever!
