Gay Turku

Nestled on Finland's southwest coast along the Aura River, Turku exudes old-world charm with its cobbled streets and medieval castle while also embracing modern diversity. Finland's former capital and oldest city has seen a vibrant LGBTQ nightlife scene emerge in recent years.

Spend your days enjoying the quaint riverside cafes and restaurants, before experiencing the energetic nightlife as the Turku adopts Helsinki's famous club culture. From traditional pubs to proudly gay event venues, Turku welcomes gay visitors to discover its laidback seaside energy and close-knit queer community.
