This Pride season, Portland Monthly is taking a long look at what it’s like to come out—of the house, that is. As more and more people shed the doldrums of the past few years and get comfortable getting sweaty, we checked the pulse on PDX’s queer nightlife: Who’s open late? Who’s spinning the best music? Where be drag brunch? We checked in with newcomers to the scene, nightlife veterans, and more to help you map out your fabulous next moves. Under 21 (or just looking to keep it low-key)? No problem—we’ve folded in all-ages events to keep everyone busy all Pride long.
Editor’s note: Looking for this year’s events? Check out our current Pride guide.
