Venue Detail
Brokeback Mountain LGBT Bar
About this venue
Honey, you can’t quit this place even if you tried! Brokeback Mountain is Bogotá's ultimate campy cowboy-themed wonderland planted firmly in the queer heartland of Chapinero. Named after the iconic cinematic masterpiece, this massive venue spans four completely separate floors, each serving a totally different flavor of nightlife realness. The lower floors welcome you with Warhol-esque murals of Heath Ledger and Jake Gyllenhaal, transitioning into a beautifully unpretentious, high-energy karaoke lounge where everyone screams pop anthems and música de plancha at the top of their lungs. But keep climbing, darling, because as you scale the levels, the music transitions through crossover Latin hits, full-tilt reggaeton, and custom rooftop party setups. It is cozy, casual, unapologetically nostalgic, and an absolute riot.

Venue intelligence
Know before you go
Typical queue
Lines are relaxed during the week, but on Fridays and Saturdays past 10:30 PM, the sidewalk outside fills up. Expect a 10 to 20-minute wait to clear the door check.
Best night
Drop in around 4:00 PM to 7:00 PM to take advantage of their stellar mid-week 2x1 happy hour deals on Gin Tonics and Cuba Libres while the karaoke rotation is fast.
Locals vs visitors
A delightfully unpretentious, friendly mix of local Chapinero students, neighborhood queer regulars, budget-conscious backpackers, and massive groups of friends looking to sing badly without judgment.
Dress code in practice
Casual Colombian nightlife clothes, trainers and expressive queer looks fit. No permanent fetish rule is published. Dress for stairs, multiple temperatures and the floor you intend to use.
Staff inclusion
Warm, highly attentive, and deeply rooted in local safe-space culture. The bartenders and table hosts are famously kind and welcoming to international travelers.
