The 2008 leit-motiv / subject is: "Por la visibilidad lésbica". Acknowledgement of lesbian women’s struggle will be highlighted.
Chueca
The party at night takes places in the best-known gay area in the city, Chueca. This neighbourhood (barrio) is downtown Madrid, just off Gran Vía. You can get there easily by Metro (Line 5, Chueca Metro station).
Don´t expect to find just gay people there. Those nights a lot of straight people party in Chueca with the gay community.
Hundreds of gay-oriented businesses, including bars, coffee-houses, restaurants, design shops, clubs, and clothe shops are available. Chueca has found a new lease of life in recent years, with the gay population investing money in local business and property.
