Doyamacho: Osaka’s Gay District
Doyamacho is one of the hottest and liveliest nightlife spots in Osaka. Located near the busy Umeda business and entertainment district, Doyama has long been jam-packed with bars, clubs, izakaya and karaoke, as well as more niche establishments like love hotels, host clubs, and massage parlors.
In recent decades, a wealth of gay bars and clubs also started to appear, and over the years Doyama has become known as Osaka’s gay district. It is conveniently located near many downtown offices, as well as one of the city’s largest hub stations, so people flock to this district after work to let off some steam and cut loose.
It’s a party notice no matter what day it is.
While Doyama is especially thrilling on the weekends — this is when most LGBT events happen, like live DJs and drag nights — it’s a party spot no matter what day it is. The shotengai (covered shopping arcades) and atmospheric side streets that make up this area are brightly lit and tightly packed from sundown until it’s time for businessmen and women to go assist to work the next morning.
