Fincken
Club · Nygårdsgaten 2A, 5015 Bergen, Norway · 2 saved sources
Say hello to the rain-soaked capital's absolute monarch of queer joy Fincken. Originally throwing its doors wide open on May 17, 1992—powerfully aligning with what is now the International Day Against Homophobia, Biphobia, and Transphobia—this historic gem stands proud as Bergen’s oldest and only full-time queer bar and club. Split across two vibrant levels, it serves a dual dose of personality: downstairs is a cozy, chatty neighborhood pub complete with their iconic mounted reindeer head artwork, while upstairs transforms into a neon-hazed pop and techno dance cage.
