Plano B

על המקום הזה Plano B

Plano B on Rua de Cedofeita is Porto's best queer-friendly alternative culture venue — a multi-room space that programmes live music, DJ nights, art exhibitions, and cultural events alongside its bar function, attracting a crowd that defines queerness broadly and is not primarily interested in the traditional gay bar experience. The venue's atmosphere is deliberately inclusive and alternative: students, artists, musicians, and the younger Porto LGBTQ+ community that finds the mainstream gay bar scene too narrow in its definition of what a queer social space should be. Plano B is Porto's answer to Lisbon's Casa Independente — a venue that places LGBTQ+ life within a broader cultural context rather than segregating it into a separate commercial scene. For visitors who combine cultural tourism with LGBTQ+ travel, Plano B is the most rewarding venue in Porto.
