- Most recently declared both “Best Dance Club” and “Best Live Music Venue” in the SF Weekly Readers’ Poll, DNA Lounge has won over 60 “best of” awards.
- Book your stay well in advance as people start planning the moment the last event ends as there are just 31 hotels in Soma, the home of the fair.
San Francisco is split into several areas but the main 2 are The Castro and Soma, with Soma being the area the where you will find Folsom Street, and most of the leather and fetish bars. With there being so many gay bars we have had to put 2 maps in.
