Visit one of Key West’s notoriously rowdy drag bars. There’s an active LGBT community on the island, and several nightclubs featuring performers in drag. After the nightly shows the lights go down and the music is turned way up, as the clubs transform into high-energy dance clubs. The clubs are straight-friendly, the hosts hilarious and the Diva’s are to die for. And, if you happen to be in town on New Year’s Eve, you won’t want to miss the Diva Drop (a drag queen lowered at the stroke of midnight) at the Bourbon Street Pub.
