Salvation coming to Buenos Aires

This is a Google translation of SentidoG web page

Salvation - London, the party's largest international gay circuit, will carry out its premier in Buenos Aires on December 13, 2008.

When Salvation began in London a decade ago was an instant hit. Then the rest of Europe was shocked by the amazing event, and over the years Salvation conquered Asia, Australia and America. Salvation has in fact expanded its music to more than 47 cities in the world.



The team of Salvation London is presented in December in Buenos Aires to launch a real event "London Style" funky and glamorous in a place with the newest technology, original and chic in the heart of the city. The event will be attended by the best DJ's and artists that London and offers an international circuit with real festive vibe. Among those invited to the Buenos Aires edition highlights Valerie M (UK, lead singer of Groove Armada, freestylers), DJ Pier Morrocco (UK, Salvation London, Brighton Pride, Heaven Ibiza), DJ Martin Lamelas (ARG, SAMC South American Music Conference, Personal Fest, Bleu Festival at the Polo Field Argentino, Argentine Typical), DJ Bijker (HOL, Mysteryland Amsterdam, Amsterdam Sensation, Tom of Finland Party Crash in London)

New guide to gay Buenos Aires

After checking around recently I discovered that every web-site with a gay guide to Buenos Aires, either in English or Spanish, was out-of-date and had incorrect or misleading information. So I set to work last weekend and created a web site which, when completed, will have enough information to keep any gay visitor to Buenos Aires busy during their stay in the city. Obviously I intend to keep it maintained; while it will not be a definitive guide I welcome any suggestions for inclusion. My email address can be found in my profile accompanying this bLOG.

You can find my new guide here Guide to Gay Buenos Aires There are still a few pages to be completed so keep checking back for the latest version.

Gay Maps of Buenos Aires

I have a collection of about half a dozen gay maps of the city of Buenos Aires. With one exception they appear to be produced on the principle that a business has to pay to be included in the publication and to be shown on the map, and since not all businesses can afford to include themselves in each and every map so nearly every map is deficient. (On the other hand, one map - GMaps - has so many dots on the map it looks to have a disease; many businesses on there have only a very tenuous connection to the gay life here and so the map can be quite overwhelming and somewhat misleading.)
The exception (and IMHO the best map) is the one called BSAS Gay produced under the auspices of the government of the city of Buenos Aires which shows all of the most significant businesses and it has the clearest map. The map is obtainable at tourist information offices and in the leading gay places.
