Tipsy Unicorn
Tipsy Unicorn is a cozy and quirky gay bar located in the Old Quarter of Hanoi. There’s also more discourse around ways LGBTQ allies can attend Pride events, what makes queer parties queer, and the tricky balance of inclusivity and exclusivity.
It really ties people together and can be a safe haven for so many—no matter what sexual orientation or background—especially in a wider society that has its flaws. But queer parties have become all that and more for those who identify as straight, too.
Social media is now awash with comparisons of straight and gay clubs, with the latter gaining a reputation for having better music, better dancing, and simply a better vibe.
They just do whatever they want, be who they want to be. I feel like you can really be yourself around queer people.”
As a straight person, do you feel welcome in queer parties?
I always feel welcome at queer parties. I feel like you can really be yourself around queer people.
I’ve never had to worry that I was unsafe. Feel wonderful. The bar has a spacious dance floor and a great sound system, making it the perfect place to dance the night away. Not to mention the taste for fashion and music. At straight parties, there’s too much machismo going on, guys are usually just there to pick up chicks and look tough. Feel magical.

This is beautiful. I will always be grateful for that. Tipsy Unicorn also has a small dance floor and hosts regular events, including karaoke nights and drag shows.
There’s a struggle to fit in society, but that community has themselves—they trust in themselves, they believe in themselves. In recent years, the city has seen a growing number of gay bars catering to the LGBTQ+ community. I’ve never seen any hint of aggression at a queer party. Since the pandemic happened, most of the queer places in Sydney have shut down, so I haven’t been to a queer party in two years.
