Brighton's gay village is located in Kemp Town, mainly on St James's Street and the Old Steine. Brighton has a thriving and diverse gay scene which ranges from leather bars, to country & western line dancing, to techno clubs. Brighton has long been known as the number one gay seaside resort in the south of England. As well as the usual tourists and visitors Brighton also acts as a magnet for lesbians and gay men from all over the UK and abroad who are attracted by its bohemian atmosphere and easy going attitude. This has led to one of the largest populations of lesbians and gay men in the UK.
