Venues
Freakin’ Awesome Gay Stuff is an events company—we do not own any venues, and instead, we partner with amazing spaces that allow us to host our events.
Get to know some of the spaces we have used in the past and others we continue to use for our events.
Know of an amazing venue you’d like to see us run events in? Let us know! 🙂
Buddies
Buddies (officially Buddies in Bad Times Theatre) is a Toronto’s oldest LGBTQ theatre company and they just happen to have a cool space for events too.
In this space, we tend to run our more PG events that bring together all of the LGBTQ+ community.
The Drink
The Drink is a cozy upstairs bar on Church St known for their pizzas, nachos and drag shows. We mix it up a bit by throwing events for guys that are more on the flirty & dirty side!
The Lair
The Lair is a dark, basement space. We love to run body-positive and x-positive events in this space. It is the space we use most often.
Flip
Flip (officially Flip The Table) is a coffee & games-themed event space. It features a chill, no frills vibe and over 200+ board games.
In this space, we tend to run our more social events including board games socials.
Anvil
Anvil is a new maze-like venue that blends anonymity with a cruisy feel.
In this space, we tend to run smaller, exclusive events for guys into guys.

Frequently Asked Questions
No. Instead, we partner with great venues to help us supercharge our programming and run more events even more often!
Most venues run other programming on other days/times when we are not there. We encourage you to check them out and support them if you like their vibe.
Usually, no. While we love sharing stuff from other community groups, we usually don’t have the information (or authority) to speak about events run by other organizations.
A great resource for a wide variety of events is yohomo.ca
Buddies has entered into a multi-year contract with a ticketing platform called Showpass which has locked them into an exclusivity agreement. We know it’s an inconvenience for many, but you will need to buy tickets for events at Buddies through Showpass.
All venues accept cash, Interac debit, VISA and MasterCard unless we notify you otherwise in the event description.
Some venues take AMEX and some don’t, so we encourage you to bring an alternate method if you have AMEX and are unsure. We cannot confirm or deny AMEX availability.
