Gay club albuquerque

Hip with a mid-century, quirky chic Gay moves to a unique rhythm with its own distinct personality. Films such as the Grapes of Albuquerque and Easy Rider were filmed here. You can even look for a production filming and sign-on as an extra to find your inner star in Tamelewood! Downtown Albuquerque offers different cultural festivals, all manner of restaurants, and specialty shops.

Nightlife is abundant, and while most are not overtly gay, gay people are welcomed to a club live music scene or to sip cocktails on a balcony. East of Downtown is Nob Hill, an eclectic, bohemian area. Some now function as quirky boutique shops. Sip local sparkling wine or munch a shrimp corn dog while strolling around the monthly Arts Crawl.

Nob hill dazzles at night with people — straight and gay, from University of New Mexico Students to active seniors- all under ever-changing shades of neon. This is ABQ at it quirkiest!

Welcome to gay friendly Albuquerque

October is scented by piquant roasting green chilis. And, albuquerque up the turquoise skies, is the Albuquerque International Balloon Fiesta, with multi-colored hot air balloons from all around the world. There are gay balloon pilots, so cozy up to a pilot and maybe you can catch a ride!

One of the features of the Fiesta is the car show with classic and specialty cars such as low-riders. Old Town has wonderful shops, restaurants and sights to discover, but Christmas eve transforms Old Town into a magical place. About one million luminarias, small paper bags weighted with sand and lit by candles, line the sidewalks, the buildings, the Plaza and the San Felipe d Neri church.

This is an ancient Spanish tradition meant to light the way for the newborn Christ child. Albuquerque is ringed by gorgeous mountains and extinct volcanoes. One of the top outdoor destinations in the U. Maps are readily available. Combine art and hiking by visiting the Petroglyph National Monument, where early Native Americans etched life symbols onto boulders.

New Mexico Outdoors is a gay group that has outdoor events every weekend and always welcomes visitors. Celebrate the dead, you say? The custom is to celebrate the memory of loved ones you have lost by creating a shrine with food, photos and some of their favorite things. The parade features traditional music and dances along with low-rider cars, horses and my favorite- rolling Descansos- memorials to those who have passed before us.

Descansos are roadside memorials put up where a loved one was killed in a car accident, some of which are club beautiful. Like wearing make-up? Nearly everyone paints their faces like skulls, so get out and paint away!
