Rewind Wednesdays at Anthem

Every Tuesday, Anthem turns up the heat with a rotating lineup that keeps things fresh — one week it's Music Bingo: Queer Icons, the next it's karaoke where a killer high note might earn you a round of shots. Drag, laughter, and that messy gay magic we all live for. Free entry, cheap drinks ($4 domestic, $5 wells), and a stage with your name on it. The mic is hot, the crowd is loud, and baby, the spotlight is yours.

Tuesday nights at Anthem Orlando belong to Kitana Gemini and a room full of people who came for bingo and stayed for the chaos. Free entry, 9 PM to 11 PM, 21+—grab your cards, play multiple rounds, win actual prizes, and stick around for the late-night drag show that follows. Beginner-friendly, no cover, and exactly the kind of weeknight tradition that fills tables with strangers who leave as friends.

Tuesday nights at Anthem belong to XPLICIT — a free, 21+ late-night drag show that kicks off at 11:30 PM with Kitana Gemini hosting a full cast of Orlando's sharpest performers: Kirk T. Davinci, Mala Mia, Anita Bettername, Shuga, Annie Mae, and Leggy Strangelove. Drag Bingo warms up the crowd from 8:30–10:30 PM if you want to arrive early. No cover, full bar, and the kind of rowdy Tuesday energy that keeps downtown Orlando's LGBTQ+ nightlife alive.

Thursday nights at Anthem Orlando belong to the salsa and bachata crowd — free beginner-friendly lessons at 8:30 PM get everyone moving, no partner or experience needed. Rotate through the social dance floor, connect with downtown Orlando's friendliest Latin dance community, and keep the night going with salsa, bachata, rumba, and cha-cha until 11 PM. Full bar with Latin-inspired drink specials.

Thursday nights at Anthem belong to Latin Music Night — reggaeton, bachata, merengue, and Latin pop from 10 PM until 2:30 AM. Free cover, $20 all-you-can-drink wells, $5 shots, and a mixed queer crowd that actually dances. DJ Jery keeps it moving all night. 21+.

Sapphic Fridays is Anthem Orlando's answer to a gap in the scene — a late-night home for women, femmes, and sapphic energy that actually centers you instead of treating you like an afterthought. DJ Nani Soul keeps the floor moving from 10 PM to 2:30 AM with R&B, hip-hop, Latin, pop and dance. Regulars treat it as a standing plan; newcomers tend to walk in alone and leave with a group. 21+, full bar, downtown location.
