Venue Detail
Plan B
About this venue
Plan B is Malmö's premier underground-style alternative music venue, cultural hub, and DIY community space. While it operates primarily as a mainstream indie rock, punk, and electronic music venue rather than an exclusively designated gay bar, it is universally celebrated as a fiercely progressive, hyper-queer-friendly establishment and a vital safe haven for Malmö’s alternative LGBTQ+ subcultures.

Venue intelligence
Know before you go
Typical queue
Highly dependent on the event billing. For standard bar operation hours, it's a breeze, but for major local electronic festivals or sold-out indie and rap lineups, expect a 20 to 45-minute entry bottleneck.
Best night
Arrive around 8:30 PM if you are looking to grab local beers and wood-fired food in the courtyard before the main indoor rooms open up, or arrive past 11:00 PM on club nights when the subcultural electronic dance floors lock into their hypnotic peak stride.
Locals vs visitors
A delightfully eccentric, highly progressive melting pot. It attracts alternative queer youths, non-binary creatives, tattoo-covered punk rockers, international electronic music tourists, and local Sorgenfri/Möllevången subcultural heads.
Dress code in practice
Completely casual and individualistic streetwear. Band t-shirts, denim, sneakers, vintage garments, and creative alternative styles fit the raw industrial aesthetic perfectly.
Staff inclusion
Exceptionally warm, progressive, and deeply integrated into Malmö's independent artistic community. The internal bar crews, local booking managers, and event organizers place a massive, strict priority on establishing a safe, highly consensual, and zero-harassment environment.
