Black & White

Open since the 1980s on Calle de la Libertad, Black & White is Madrid's oldest continuously operating gay bar and a fixture of Chueca nightlife. Spread across two floors with three bars, it splits into a lively dance area downstairs and quieter corners upstairs for chatting. The club is known for its nightly cabaret and drag shows, strippers, and a mixed, mostly male crowd that packs in from midnight until sunrise, open 365 days a year. It's an essential stop for visitors wanting a taste of old-school Chueca gay bar culture alongside modern party energy.
