Put together by gay guys based in Wellington for gay guys, coming out guys, guys who are wondering what's happening to them, lesbians, counsellors, teachers and anyone else who is interested in information about being gay or lesbian in Wellington - and beyond. This is a safe place to find out more.

Hi, we've put together a whole lot of information about being gay in Wellington, the most gay friendly city in New Zealand. We aim to help you find your way around our wonderful city in an Absolutely Positively Wellington gay way.

We are progressively adding pages so you can see what services, facilities and entertainment, of special interest to gay people, is available here in Wellington. Also we are gradually adding pages about coming out and other things gay people and those who work with, or are associated with, gay people may be interested in. If you want to follow developments then bookmark this page. If you know of something you think may be relevant that we don't have here or, if you think we have made a mistake, please let us know. You might even like to offer to write something for us (see Larry's Story as an example).

Our plan is to make this site grow to meet the needs of those who visit us - so please give us feedback on what you have found here and what new things you would like to see.

We believe that the information provided here is suitable for most people of all ages and can be safely used by teachers, counsellors and other people to help gay people, young and old, to find their way around the gay scene in Wellington.
