A popular area of Barcelona has recently become firmly established as a centre for gay nightlife, thanks to the opening of several new clubs, bars and restaurants. Located in the eastern area of the Eixample district between Aragó and Gran Via streets are no less than 11 gay venues. These include the popular Dietrich bar, the two Arena bars – which give seven per cent of their take to help the fight against AIDS – and the Aire, a male gay restaurant which has now become a bar for both gays and lesbians.
