Hotel john gay
by Meredith J. Batt
Atlantic Canadian port cities have some of the most colourful and vibrant queer spaces and stories. Saint John, New Brunswick is no exception. In 2020, the first summer of the pandemic, I celebrated my 25th birthday in Saint John by attending a drag reveal hosted by Justin TooDeep (portrayed by Alex Saunders) and Saint John’s jewel of the sea, Dia Monde (portrayed by Shawn Craft). It was a distanced drag show, but after months of only participating in queer life through Zoom calls, I felt weepy being in a space of so much excitement, queer community, and joy. Five years later, I am now lucky to call Saint John my second home as I split my time between Fredericton and the great port metropolis where my partner lives.
Saint John has a vibrant contemporary queer scene. Saint John Pride has hosted many of the city’s 2sLGBTQ+ summer pride events for over twenty years.

Axel Beach Hotel on South Beach is closing its doors for good on March 31.
The LGBTQ hotel had become some sort of competition for the other gay hotel “down the block” (Hotel Gaythering) with its monthly pool parties and weekly karaoke with drag entertainer CC Glitzer.
The closure of another LGBTQ business on South Beach is quite a devastating blow for the community. SoBe was once hustling and bustling with a variety of gay bars and clubs — its heyday from the 1990s to the mid 2000s. With Axel’s closing, gay SoBe nightlife only has Twist, Nathan’s Beach Club, Gaythering and Palace (which though still gay has become mostly a tourist attraction).
“It is unfortunate to lose another gay venue,” said LGBTQ nightlife promoter Edison Farrow. “It seemed that they were always struggling. I have been to their other locations, which are very successful.”
