The Venue

- The heart of the venue with the main stage where concerts and events take place. It consists of a large floor area and a balcony wrapping around the room.
- There are multiple levels of balconies providing good sightlines to the stage below. They offer a more relaxed viewing experience compared to the floor. Bars are spread across the different levels.
- Terminal 5 has world class light and sound and will be transformed by Masterbeat for the ultimate pride experience.
Hells Kitchen
- Hell’s Kitchen is the reigning queen of NYC’s queer nightlife. Long home to Broadway actors looking for affordable housing, the neighborhood has become the setting for lively dining and nightlife scenes—aided by the gentrification that has pushed many gay bars (and gay boys) out of Chelsea.
- Concentrated along Ninth and Tenth Avenues between 42nd and 57th Streets, Hell’s Kitchen also serves as a convenient Midtown base from which to explore some of the City’s best-known attractions. Read on for our picks of the area’s best restaurants and LGBTQ+ bars and clubs.
- The Greenwich Hotel conceived by Robert DeNiro and New York Hotelier Ira Drukier, is located in the heart of Tribeca, one of New York City’s most desirable downtown neighborhoods.
