About Icon Astoria

Icon Astoria is an LGBTQ+ bar and nightclub on 33rd Street in Astoria, Queens. Combining the social atmosphere of a neighbourhood gay bar with the energy of a late-night club, it offers entertainment throughout the week and remains open into the early morning. Drag is central to Icon’s identity. The venue regularly features resident New York performers presenting lip-syncs, live singing, comedy and high-energy stage shows. Its programme also includes karaoke and dance parties, with events taking place across the week rather than being limited to Friday and Saturday nights. The experience can vary depending on when you visit. Earlier hours may be better suited to drinks and conversation, while performances and later weekend periods typically create a busier, louder and more energetic club atmosphere. Icon is particularly useful for LGBTQ+ visitors staying in Queens who want drag and nightlife without travelling into Manhattan or Brooklyn. Check Icon’s Instagram before visiting for the latest performers, event times and any special programming, as the entertainment schedule can change from one night to another.

What to expect

A colourful and energetic gay bar-club with regular drag performances, karaoke and dancing. The atmosphere can be social earlier in the evening and much busier during shows and late-night weekend events.

Absolutely love ICON. Marcelo and Maggie are two of the absolute rockstars who make this place feel so welcoming every single visit. They remember faces, bring such good energy, and really set the tone for an awesome experience. Places like this only work because of people like them — truly the heart of the place.

Icon is my favorite spot in Astoria! Special shoutout to Marcelo who always does the most to make everyone feel welcome! He has an amazing energy and always helps you find a cocktail if you’re unsure of what to drink and always remembers what you had last time ! The drag performances are incredible with one of the best stages and lighting in all of NYC. Be sure to not miss Misty Mountains! Her shows are always unique, eclectic and entertaining, a stand out in the NYC drag scene for sure.

It was my first time there, and I could not stand how dirty the restroom was. Why some managers don't pay attention to the importance of having a clean and neat restroom/toilets.

The Saturday night drag show at Icon was a highlight of our trip to Astoria! This bar has a friendly, neighborhood feel and was immediately welcoming. The Saturday evening Jackbox games was super fun. Highly recommend!
