Adult nightlife in Lisbon: clubs, saunas, shops and motels
66 places
Lisbon is the capital of Portuguese adult nightlife and the city with the most venues in the guide: strip clubs from Cais do Sodré to Avenidas Novas, gay and liberal saunas, fetish bars and parties, cabaret and burlesque, over a dozen sex shops (including the Contranatura chain, born here), pole dance studios, boudoir photographers and the fairs and parties that mark the calendar.
Only legal venues with a public address are listed. Every listing says whether it has been verified with the venue and, if so, when and how. No escorts, no brothels, no personal ads.

Where the night is
Cais do Sodré and Rua Nova do Carvalho (the Pink Street) hold what remains of the old sailors' quarter, with Pensão Amor as the reference house, part bar, part cabaret, part sex shop. Príncipe Real has Finalmente Club, the city's oldest drag show, and Bar Cru, home of the fetish scene; the gay saunas, from Bairro Alto to Avenida da Liberdade and Avenidas Novas, make Lisbon a destination for European gay tourism. The strip clubs cluster between Avenida da Liberdade and Avenidas Novas: Elefante Branco on Conde de Redondo, Photus on Duque de Loulé, San Payo on Rodrigues Sampaio, Body Erotic Club in Picoas; Maxime, the historic cabaret, is on Praça da Alegria.
