Cliché has put on LGBTQIA+ events in Modena since 2016 and registered as an association in 2025. It has no premises of its own. It borrows them: a brewpub in the old town, a beer hall out west, a cocktail bar with a terrace, sports halls, bookshops, a mountain refuge.
The programme is wider than nightlife, which is what makes it useful to a visitor. There are drag nights and parties, and there are also volleyball tournaments, tango sessions danced open-role, group bike rides, walks in the Appennino and book presentations. It is one of the organisations behind Modena Pride, and it publishes the only current guide to which bars in the city are queer and which are friendly.
Because the events move, there is no one door to knock on. Ask the association where it will be.
