Theklastraße in Munich's Glockenbachviertel is one of the anchor points of the city's queer scene: a short street lined tightly with several bars and clubs. Among the best-known addresses are the Prosecco Bar, with its live DJ and dance floor, and Goldener Reiter, a long-standing fixture of Munich's gay scene.
On warm evenings, life spills outside: guests gather in front of the bars, talking, laughing and drinking before moving on to the clubs later in the night. Once a year the street becomes the stage for its own street festival, with several venues celebrating together.
Anyone planning a night through Munich's queer nightlife is hard-pressed to skip Theklastraße - it counts as one of the most reliable starting points in the Glockenbachviertel.
