A place worth knowing

The Stonewall Inn remains a working bar at a site central to LGBTQ history. Its connection to the 1969 uprising sits alongside a present-day programme of drag, piano-bar evenings, bingo and other gatherings.

Visit with both parts of that identity in mind. For nightlife, choose a session from the bar’s programme; the wider Stonewall historic area offers a separate reason to spend time around Christopher Street.
