Gay Friendly in Ho Chi Minh City

Gay Ho Chi Minh City centres on District 1, where most of the bars and clubs sit within walking distance of each other around Thi Sách and the Đồng Khởi area. Bùi Viện covers the louder, backpacker end of the scene. Beyond nightlife, a growing set of cafés, restaurants, and hotels across District 1 and District 3 are openly welcoming, and the city is generally relaxed for visitors — same-sex relationships are legal in Vietnam and public attitudes in Saigon are among the country's most open. This section maps gay and LGBTQ-friendly venues in Ho Chi Minh City by district. Each entry lists location, hours, and what to expect.
