Bratislava - Post Report Question and Answers

Is this a good city for LGBT expatriates? Why or why not?

Is is tolerated, but lots of homophobia in the society. Same-sex couples cannot get married or register a partnership. LGBT movement is active though. There is a Film Festival and also the march once a year. - Feb 2017


It's not known to be extremely welcoming but I think it would be fine. - Sep 2016


I have no personal knowledge, but I would guess it is not great, as Slovakia is a fairly strongly Catholic country, and public opinion polls find that there are many with negative feelings about issues such as same-sex marriage. - Jun 2015


There are some active gay social groups. - Dec 2009


Very large gay community, many bars and events just for gays, no issues at all. However, there is a conservative element that does not mind speaking their opposition to it. - Apr 2010
