A
Xlarge
This straight-friendly gay venue melds glitz with size. Occupying a converted art deco–era cinema that Atatürk was said to have habituated, it draws in both gay and straight partyphiles, who come to be dazzled by a humungous ballroom chandelier, preserved old architectural details and possibly the longest bar (under the stage) in any local venue. On the mezzanine, two supersized beds for group cavorting flank a full-service bar; one overlooks the hunky dancers or drag artists on stage. Vodka-shot (TL5) counters have been conveniently placed near people for easy refuelling.

Supperclub
With an all-white decor and a location close to the Bosphorus, Supperclub has an unmistakable resort feel. Customers lounge or dine in oversized beach beds in lieu of tables and chairs, enjoying the atmospheric lighting, live shows, imported DJ talents and highly creative cuisine. All of this adds a multisensory approach to partying.

Tek Yon
A phenomenal run in the popularity stakes catapulted this originally unpretentious venue to the forefront of İstanbul‘s gay nightlife. It has now upgraded to sleek and bigger surroundings to the delight of its core hirsute, fashion-challenged clientele. Cuddly bears abound here.
