Portland's Queer Nightclub Since 1981 π³οΈβππ³οΈββ§οΈ
For over 40 years, CC Slaughters has brought Portland's queer community together to dance, connect, celebrate, and be unapologetically ourselves.
No matter your gender, orientation, race, expression, or kink β there's a place for you on our dance floor. Come as you are, find your people, and stay for the party.
Grab a craft cocktail or frozen drink and stay for live DJs, dazzling drag shows, gogo dancers, drag bingo, themed nights, video lottery, and unforgettable events β seven nights a week in the heart of Old Town / Chinatown.
“If you're here, you're queer β and if you're not queer... you're still here!” — Bolivia Carmichaels, House Drag-MC

New owners. Same home since 1981.
In 2025, after more than four decades on this corner of Old Town, CC Slaughters came close to closing for good. New owners John Lo and Chris Lovern stepped in to keep the doors open and carry the club's history forward for the community that built it. If it's been a while, come back and see us.
