Default New to Sydney...
Hey! I'm Frankie, and in about a weeks time I'm due to move to Sydney. I'm from the UK and coming all on my own so will not know anyone when I arrive! Could you guys give me some advice on the best gay/lesbian bars and best places to meet people? ANY advice is appreciated as I've never been to Australia before!
Cheers in advance!

Welcome Frankie.

Just keep reading the threads and you will pick up on bars/venues. Really all depends on what types of bars/crowds you prefer.

SameSame have a regular meet up and are due for one soon so go along and meet some of the posters.

Enjoy Sydney/Australia !

Cool, I've been checking out a load of threads but I'll definitely look out for the ones about bars. So far I've found out that 'Newtown' and 'Oxford street' are the places to go but it seems that the opinion of some is that Oxford street is not as good as it once was? I can't wait to get there and have a good explore! I'll definitely be looking out for threads on the next meetup! Thanks!

Also I take it there are quite a few 'poms' in Oz at the moment then? 😊

Cheers for the replies!

quite a few Oxford St venues taken over by straights and/or straights/hens parties going to the gay venues and their has been trouble.

Def turn up to a SameSame meet up as the guys/girls will head off to some venues and its better to be with someone or group than discovering on your own.

Pick up the local gay rags - SX News , Star Observer and you will see ads for venues and dance parties etc.

I just love how everyone assumed you where a guy! Haha

Most lesbians (including my sister) usually hangout at Enmore or Newtown. That'll be your best bet.

Lol! I have noticed that there are far more guys on here so I guess thats why! I've heard on Newtown but not Enmore so I'll have to keep them both in mind! Thanks! Loving a bit of local expertise!

Hey frankie, welcome to Australia.

Sydney is pretty gay in itself, the closer to the city the more gay and other sexualities are present and catered for.

It's easy to steer you in the direction of Gay Mecca aka Oxford Street and be done with it but I reckon it depends on what sort of person, gay or otherwise, you are.

Being from the UK you must like electronic music. I suggest you start there, checking out the nights.

Good luck!

Sydney is best place for fun and entertainment and famous worldwide. For me escorts in Sydney are best source of fun and pleasure. They are so experienced in their work and have ability to satisfy you in each way.
