About Us
LesbianNightLife: Premier LGBTQ+ Events & Parties
For nearly 3 decades LesbianNightLife has been providing safe space for LGBTQ+ women, non-binary, and trans folks, offering inclusive events, travel, and community connections across Boston, New England & the U.S. Focused on the lesbian and sapphic communities, we create safe spaces for celebration, connection, and unforgettable experiences. ​
Our Story
LesbianNightlife began over 27 years ago when my girlfriend and I were searching for a safe place for ourselves and our friends to gather. At that time, LGBTQ+ women’s spaces were often hidden in basements, back rooms, or out-of-the-way venues. We started hosting small bar nights simply to create a space where we could exist openly, dance freely, and feel connected.
​
What began as one little bar takeover quickly grew into a lifelong mission. Over the years, LesbianNightlife has evolved into a trusted name in LGBTQ+ nightlife and events, producing everything from intimate dance nights to large-scale celebrations like MemDay Ptown, Pride, and the Stargaze Festival. Today, we provide opportunities for hundreds of LGBTQ+ DJs, performers, artists, and gig workers each year.
Our purpose has always been the same:
to create spaces where queer women, non-binary, and trans people can feel seen, safe, and celebrated.
Our Mission
To build joyful, inclusive events that bring people together through music, community, and shared experiences. We believe deeply in the power of safe spaces, visibility, and connection — and we work every day to uphold those values.
Our Core Values
Inclusivity
Everyone deserves to feel welcome, respected, and valued. Our events are created with intention, care, and attention to the needs of our community.
​
Joy & Community
At the heart of everything we do is connection — creating environments where people can relax, dance, laugh, and make lasting memories.
​
Creativity & Experience
For nearly three decades, we’ve built events that combine incredible music, thoughtful production, and community-driven energy.
Our Commitment to Integrity & Safety
Creating safe, welcoming spaces has always been at the heart of LesbianNightlife. Behind the scenes, we hold ourselves to clear standards that guide every event we produce.
As our community grows, we continue to evolve and refine our practices so each event is better, safer, and more inclusive than the last.
​
Respect & Inclusivity
Everyone — performers, guests, and staff — is treated with dignity, care, and respect.
​
Safety
We maintain a zero-tolerance policy for harassment, discrimination, or unsafe behavior in any form.
​
Fair Business Practices
Performers and contractors are paid in full for all contracted work.
​
Transparency
We believe in open communication, clear expectations, and addressing concerns directly and professionally.
​
Accountability
Our team is trained to respond quickly to any issue that arises so everyone feels supported and protected.
These principles have shaped our work for nearly three decades and continue to guide every event, partnership, and interaction today.
If you ever have questions or concerns, we welcome open communication — your feedback helps us continue to build the safest and strongest community possible.
Thank You
Thank you to everyone who has supported LesbianNightlife throughout the years — the dancers, the DJs, the performers, the venues, the volunteers, and every single person who has walked through our doors.
This community is the reason we exist, and we are honored to continue creating spaces where you can be yourselves, celebrate your identities, and connect with one another.
