With seven unique rooms, this "mega dance club" enables bar-hoppers to experience different atmospheres without actually exiting the two-story facility. Its ability to redefine its concepts in order to reinvent itself is just one example of why Twist is the longest running gay club in Miami as it's been in business for almost two decades.

Palace is a gay restaurant/bar located in Ocean Drive's Art Deco District. For almost three decades, this has been the home to some of the most prominent drag shows in South Florida.

In addition to the entertainment, Palace also offers all-day breakfast, which compliments its bar-food menu.

Miami, Florida 33145
(305) 443-7657

Azucar, which translates to sugar in Spanish, offers something for everyone. It is best described by the Miami New Times as a smoky drag performance club-meets-Cubana salsa disco. From "Drag Wars" to "Sabados Lokos" and "Noche De Cabaret", this is the spot for the multilingual crowd searching for authentic Miami options away from the beach.
