NO COVER EVER!
PARADISE BAR is open every night of the week, including holidays.
We don't believe that you should ever have to pay to get into any bar or club in Long Beach. Your presence alone is what we want. You're the stars! Our neighborhood bar is a place where you are part of the Paradise family. So, save those bucks and buy yourself that extra drink with friends. Don't you deserve it?
WINES
Paradise features an array of wines every month. We introduce new wines frequently, especially for dinner events featuring speciality brands.
On Wednesdays, we feature 50% off the bottle or glass, and this is all the more reason to order wine with your order. See our most recent list of wines available. and don't hesitate to ask us about the featured wine of the month.
BEERS
Paradise also has a selection of beers, but our patrons seem to be big fans of Miller, Bud Light and Corona (Pacific Coast favorites, for you out of towners.)
Paradise is all about speciality cocktails.
While the favorites are standards prepared by our talented bartenders, we also feature specialty cocktails by a host of familiar brands, including Jagermeister, Absolute Vodka, and Captain Morgan. Representatives from these famous companies continue to arrive on special occasions offering deals and special gifts for our customers. We appreciate their generosity!
Where there's something going on every night...
Paradise is nothing like that past, when we were once called "The Bird" (of Paradise).
While we do cherish remnants of our history, Paradise has become a pinnacle of success in the gay community welcoming "the gays," the gay friendly and, yes, celebrities.
Featuring live performers, special events, themed parties and more, we keep it fresh and different. Our regular favoites include Rob Klopfenstein, Rudy De la Mor, Sonji Kimons,
and Karoke Diva Carolyn Sweets. We are always feaureing special guests stars including names so big we can't even announce here because of contract requirements.
Swing on in any night of the week, and you might just be surprised who's playing.
PRIDE WEEK
Each year, Paradise hosts Pride Week featuring nightly events as part of pride week in May.
Long Beach hosts one of the largest pride venues across the nation and the Broadway corridor gets wild with excitement.
We welcome all our neighboring ciites (San Francisco, Palm Springs, San Diego and everyone across the planet) to join us!
Come back each year for Pride week announcements!

Community Events

C.A.R.E. TO DINE
Paradise has always participated in significant events that support our community, local businesses and more. All you have to do is just enjoy a good meal and know that you are also helping us give money to support a valuable source to those living with AIDS.
ON BROADWAY
Paradise also hosts an annual "On Broadway" business organization party to help build awareness to the wonderful businesses that align the Broadway corridor and keep small businesses flourshing.
A DAY IN PARADISE
Our annual event to raise money for the AIDS FOOD STORE of LONG BEACH is an event we are pleased to be proud of. See the press release for the upcoming event in October.
Artists
Paradise is proud to feature local artsits from Long Beach and neighboring cities.
Let's face it, we like things that are hung, so when we feature a new artist's work on our walls, we can't be any more prouder than that. We have featured some truly talented artists who have sold their work right from our walls, sometimes the entire collection.
From various types of media used, photography, and even decorative art, we encourage our patrons to purchase something unqiue for your own home, or as a gift to others. One of a kind pieces are truly special. If you're an artist and you have a collection you'd like to show, feel free to contact Eric Davis, General Manager, to schedule and arrange your next showing in our Paradise Gallery.
The Falcons Softball team
For an amazing five years, Paradise has happily sponsored Long Beach's most popular softball team, "The Falcons." With two levels of teams that have evolved over the years, our local softball stars have called Paradise their home base.
The softballers host a series of fundraising events that helps them compete against teams in Long Beach and Orange County, as well as nationally organized tournaments reaching as far as Minneapolis, Palm Springs, San Diego and more. The Falcon's famous "jello shots" have become a staple of the team events and we hope that you continue to come out to "Leather Nights" (leather event), Bingo nights, and even the famous "Drag Wars" shows.
Originally organized by Coach Andy Marquez and Coach Aaron Ricci, the Falcons are local favorites and more information can be found on the official Falcons facebook page.
Web Site is Art
Five years ago, Paradise hired a marketing and design expert who has truly given Paradise a unique style all its own. From our event advertising, posters, banners, television and print ads --as featured in Rage Magazine, The District, Blade and popular international publications,-- the creativity and vision of our marketing makeover continues to amaze us.
Each year, Paradise strives to keep fresh and evolve, too. It's no secret Paradise has become a Long Beach hot spot and we believe much of this success is the result of our image makeover. The collaboration and vision of "Ling Ling" and our management in finding new ways to present ourselves and, most importantly, have fun with it, has kept us successfull.
Our web site is "artwork" and we appreciate PGI Designs, Inc. who continues to keep us in a league of our own! Contact info: pgidesigns_gmail.com.
Music
On our web site, we also feature music to listen to as you browse through our web pages, photos and more. Just click play below. This month, we;re featuring the new Madonna, some cool new mashups, and some classic hits we just love!
Paradise features live musical performers on the piano to make your dining experience wonderful.
Check out our calender for more information. But, music comes in all aspects here at Paradise. We also make our own kind of music, too. Thursday nights, it's your turn to sing that torch song during Karaoke Mondays and Thursdays. Belt it out, girl! It ain't over until the next Susan Boyle is discovered!
Every event we cater is individual and one of a kind. If you do not see the event you have in mind dont hesitate to contact us anyway. Our staff is excited to widen our horizons and try something new!
