Club Try-Angles

About this place Club Try-Angles

Club Try-Angles at 251 W 900 South is Salt Lake City's primary gay bar and has been the default social anchor of Utah's LGBTQ+ community for long enough to have served multiple generations of queer Salt Lakers. In a state where being gay has historically meant navigating a conservative religious and political environment, Try-Angles has functioned as more than a bar — it has been a safe space, a community hub, and a social centre for people who needed a place where their identity was unremarkable. The bar runs dance nights, drag shows, and themed events on a regular schedule; the programming covers the range of gay bar formats from relaxed social nights to higher-energy dance evenings. The W 900 South location in the western part of downtown places it within reach of the broader downtown bar scene. For LGBTQ+ visitors to Salt Lake City, Try-Angles is the orienting venue — the bar that explains the city's gay scene and introduces you to the people who live it.
