For a city of 650,000 in the entire metropolitan area, Quebec City has a pretty impressive Gay scene. In my opinion, it's as good as that of MUCH MUCH larger cities in North America, excepting the biggies like NYC, Montreal and San Fran. Le Drague on rue St. Augustin just off St. Jean is one of the main centers of activity.
In the summer, there are tables sitting out front of cobblestoned rue St. Augustin and there's quite a buzz out front with people clearly enjoying one another's company.
Inside, it's quite impressive with several floors of activity. From a leather bar for those so inclined to a sit-and-drink bar to a bar downstairs and a discotheque one flight more downstairs with an overlooking railing, there's really quite the selection. The music in the discotheque was very high-quality house-techno on the Friday I went and the crowd was enthusiastic, well-dressed with a high funk factor. What a blast!
Thursday night and Sunday night are drag show nights and pull in quite the crowd.
