Gay life in Verona is not exactly "wild" but you must consider the fact that Italy is not, as a general rule, a gayfriendly country. If you are gay and decide to travel to Italy you must remember that two men holding hand in public are still considered a taboo. in public places like bars and restaurants, kissing your partner might cause very nervous reactions and a waiter will probably ask you to stop. Avoid public manifestation of your love, if you can, or expect reactions. Whatever you do in the privacy of your bedroom is absolutely legal in  Italy and you won't be bothered. If you don't have a car and you want to spend some time in a gay place there is gay bar in central Verona called "Lucla" (via Bentegodi, 4/a - 300 meters from the Arena). This place is open every day until 2.00 am! On Friday and Saturday night it can be very crowded especially in summertime. Sunday night can be nice too. There is another centrally located bar where you might find a gayfriendly environment. The name of this place is “Antimo café”. The atmosphere at the Antimo is totally different from Lucla. Antimo is not exactly a gay place and you can’t expect the same lively atmosphere of Lucla. The only gay club of Verona is not exactly central. The place name is Romeo’s and it is open as dancing club on Fridays and Saturdays with special nights every now and then (bears…) Romeo’s is in via Giolfino and if you don’t have a car you should probably take a taxi to reach this place even though it is not impossible to walk to the club from the city center. This place is part of the Arcigay association and you will have to subscribe to this association in order to enter (you will therefore need to bring your i.d. and 15 euros for the subscription which will last for one year). There is also a gay sauna next to this club. Many gay people in Verona prefer to drive to Desenzano or San Bonifacio (or even Padua ) in order to find bigger gay clubs. In San Bonifacio there is a gay club called Skylight which in summertime offers a large outside garden with outside dance floor and swimming pool. This place will not ask you to subscribe to any associations. The place is not far from the Autostrada exit of Soave-San Bonifacio but check this link for directions http://www.skylightdisco.com/dove.html . This place is only open on Saturday night and doors won’t open before midnight (sometimes even later). In Desenzano the most famous place is the Art club.
