Scandinavias biggest gay club!Average Reviews
About
Backdoor, a club that proudly claims to be the largest gay club in Scandinavia, is a must-visit for anyone looking to experience Stockholm’s LGBTQ+ nightlife. Tucked near the Tele2 Arena, it’s a pulsating hub for partygoers every Friday and Saturday night, with doors staying open until a glorious 5 AM. That's pretty rare in Sweden, where most places shut down much earlier!
What sets Backdoor apart is its eclectic vibe. With three dance floors, you can groove to everything from house and techno to ‘90s pop and bangers. International DJs frequently take over the decks, ensuring the energy stays high. While the music is top-tier, be ready for Stockholm prices – entry and drinks can be a bit steep, but totally worth it if you're chasing that perfect night out.
The crowd? Mostly young, mixed with men, women, and a solid blend of both local and international guests. It’s a great spot for big parties, including many that coincide with Pride festivities, making it a go-to for anyone who loves a vibrant, inclusive scene.
Just remember – like any great night out, arrive early to avoid the queues at the bar and coat check.

Not sure why this place has a 2 star rating but I thought it was a ton of fun. I only took off a star because the cover charge is a bit steep but it includes coat check which was nice and the price of a beer wasn’t out of line. Lots of hot guys, great music and fun atmosphere. So I just wanted to drop a positive review cuz I had a good time!-

This is Stockholm's only gay club, and it's sad. Hostile bouncer for no reason at entry. We had 2-3 beers before the club but he acted very dominant and authoritarian and said 'you don't look so good'. Teenage school disco vibe. Temporary bars with no taps, you have to get water from the bathroom tap. No planning went into this club. Nowhere to sit and hang out. How can they charge this much for a glorified school disco where people can't get the slightest tipsy or drunk although they sell alcohol? The vibe is lame and hostile. I'm not a teenager!Mike Masni

The club was mixed. While the venue itself was nice, with good music, and the prices were on the higher side compared to other clubs, I had an unfortunate encounter with the security guard at the entrance. Upon our arrival, the guard's behavior was noticeably unfriendly. We were unaware that smoking near the door wasn't allowed, and when we stepped outside to have a cigarette, the guard reacted aggressively by forcibly taking the cigarettes from us and raising his voice. This behavior felt unnecessarily harsh and disrespectful. While the venue has its positives, the interaction with security left a negative impression, and I’m unsure if I would return.Runar Thor

The only friendly staff in this place are the bartenders. The doorstaff and security are usually quite rude and unwelcoming. The music they play is good and the place has potential but the vibe is completely ruined by the invasion of straight women who in turn bring a second invasion of predatory straight men looking to score with less competition or something. Last few times I’ve been there I’ve been getting should bumped and eyed down by some straight guys that seem like they’re just looking for a fight. I just want a safe space to dance to good music.Can Grant

The music was quiet fun and I didn’t have any problem with security but this place is OVERPRICED. Entrance was 200SEK (18€) with no drink included, one tequila shot was 110SEK(10€) and cocktails were about 170SEK (15€). They have no dancers, no fancy lights, no seats in smoking area. Also it feels like a straight club bc all I saw was girls going night out to a gay club to not to be bothered by straight men. I didnt have a bad experience but I would recommend or go again.
