I hate that this place shares a name with one of the most bigoted individuals in the world, but…read morealas, the Portuguese queer community is here and we are not letting down.
Trumps was my first stop in Lisbon after 21 hours of flying from the U.S. I came here when Yvie Oddly (RPDR S11) was the featured performer and had a blast. Entry was 20€ which included a free drink, and is apparently higher than normal - likely because of the guest of the night. GET THERE EARLY (i.e. at midnight) in order to avoid a long entry line.
The club itself was pretty well laid out. There is a coat check right at the front and you are led downstairs to two different rooms - a dance hall and a performance stage. I spent my entire night inside the performance hall where the queens of Trumps was DJing and performing, and I was blown away. The drag scene in Lisbon is top notch and I was VERY impressed.
My Tequila Sunrise was juice, let's be real. But I didn't come here to drink, but to see good performers entertain me. I got great drag queens, good throwback 2000s music, and a fun time. My only complaint was that the DJ wasn't very good, as it sounded like they were just hitting 'next' on their Apple Music player. But the queens performing were phenomenal!
Note: most of the people here seemed to be very young gays in their early 20s.
