The Divine

The Divine is a LGBTQ+ bar and performance venue in Dalston, East London, and the spiritual successor to the much-loved queer institution The Glory. It is known for its bold, creative programming and proudly alternative energy, drawing a diverse crowd of drag artists, club kids, performers, and East London creatives. The space blends classic queer nightlife with cutting-edge performance art, hosting everything from high-camp drag shows and cabaret to DJ-led club nights, live music, comedy, and experimental theatre.

Unlike the more commercial gay scene in Soho, The Divine has a more underground and inclusive feel, celebrating all corners of LGBTQ+ culture. It is especially popular with a younger, artsy crowd and those looking for something edgier.
