The Venue

  • The party takes place at LPN (El Palenque Night Club) at 1115 NW 22nd Ave, MIAMI, FL, 33125 US, in Little Havana. It is one of Miami’s leading after hours club complete with dance floor and bar, mezzanine level, booth seating and great light and sound.
  • LPN is a 20 minute drive from South Beach, home to the city’s busy gay bars. Take a ride share to the party and stay in South Beach.

Gay Miami: Where to Go Before LPN!

Miami’s gay nightlife is centred on South Beach, particularly around Washington Avenue, Ocean Drive and Lincoln Road. Unlike cities with a single late-night gay district, Miami combines beachfront bars, drag shows, cocktail lounges and large circuit events held across the city.

For visitors attending LPN!, South Beach is the best place to begin the night. The party starts early on Sunday morning at El Palenque Nightclub, 1115 NW 22nd Avenue, on the mainland. Enjoy the bars first, then take an Uber or Lyft to the after-hours venue.

Before the Party: Miami’s Gay Bars

  • Twist – 1057 Washington Avenue. A South Beach institution with multiple bars and dance areas across two floors, each with a different atmosphere. The natural choice for guests who want to dance before heading to LPN!, particularly as the night gets later.
  • Palace Bar – 1052 Ocean Drive. Famous for its drag performances, outdoor terrace and prime location opposite the beach. Start here for dinner, cocktails and entertainment before moving on to the clubs.
  • Bar Gaythering – 1409 Lincoln Road. An intimate gay bar with craft cocktails, friendly bartenders and a more conversational atmosphere. A good place to meet friends early in the evening, with themed events throughout the week.
  • Lust Lounge – 437 12th Street. A smaller gay cocktail lounge with a social atmosphere and a mix of drinks and entertainment. A useful alternative to South Beach’s larger venues.

Planning Your Night

  • Start around Ocean Drive for dinner and drinks, then move to Washington Avenue for dancing.
  • If you’re attending the regular Sunday morning LPN!, plan your departure from South Beach around 4:30 am to allow time for the journey and admission.
  • El Palenque is not within walking distance of South Beach’s gay bars. Allow approximately 20–30 minutes by rideshare, depending on traffic.
  • Check individual bar programmes before visiting, as drag shows, special events and closing times vary.

For a daytime introduction to gay Miami, visit the popular gay beach at 12th Street and Ocean Drive, or spend the afternoon exploring the restaurants, shops and cafés along Lincoln Road.

Where to Stay for LPN Miami

Stay in South Beach for an LPN weekend. You’ll have the beach, restaurants and Miami Beach’s gay nightlife within walking distance, then take a short rideshare to the party.

  • The Setai Miami Beach – Five-star oceanfront choice with large rooms, three pools, spa and direct beach access. Pick this for a luxury weekend and somewhere suitably calm to recover after LPN.
  • The Betsy South Beach – Elegant boutique hotel at the quieter end of Ocean Drive with rooftop pool, direct beach access and a more polished atmosphere than many South Beach hotels.
  • The Marlin Hotel – Stylish Art Deco boutique hotel close to Española Way and Ocean Drive. A strong central choice if you want restaurants, bars and the beach within an easy walk.
  • Uma House by Yurbban South Beach – Contemporary boutique hotel with a rooftop pool close to Collins Avenue and Lincoln Road. My pick for combining a smart modern stay with easy access to South Beach nightlife.

For LPN itself, stay around central South Beach rather than choosing a hotel close to the after-hours venue. You’ll get far more from the rest of your Miami weekend and can take a rideshare when it’s time to party.
