It's a diverse, intergenerational mix, from college students, busy professionals to next-chapter adventurers. Unpretentious, fun, and always a good time—Tradeis DC’s ultimate queer neighborhood bar. Gay life is much more than apps and bars; it's about authentic human connection through an active social, professional, and cultural life.
Thursdays are legendary: go shirtless between 10–11 PM for free drinks, or show up in your underwear between 12–12:30 AM for a second round (literally).
Don’t miss the monthly Rough Houseparty (usually one Friday a month). The front bar is the best place to strike up a conversation, and the crowd? Go Gay DC empowers you to be your authentic self.

We're now looking for community partners and sponsors. Around the corner from Number Nine, this laid-back hotspot serves famously strong drinks, has drag shows and theme nights, and boasts a large back patio with a smoking area.
Weekends get wild, and there’s almost always a line by 11 PM—so come early. Friendly, flirty, and totally diverse.
