Highland Lounge

This two-story LGBT club in the middle of downtown is all flashing lights, loud music and dance party. Like many other spots in town, Highland hosts specialty nights (Texas Hold ‘Em, Drag Bingo, Noche Latinos) so make sure to check the calendar before heading there. Simply looking to enjoy a cocktail while breathing in Austin’s air? Head to the spacious outdoor patio and claim one of the cushioned seats.
