Ambush Rochester

Ambush Rochester Ambushing a different bar every 2nd Friday of the month for the LGBTQ+ community! Trans and enby folx always welcome and safe!

As an alternative to the lack of lesbian bars in the area, we (lesbians, queer women and our allies) take over a different straight bar on the second Friday of the month. This is meant to be a low-key, fun, casual way to hang out with your friends and meet other lesbians and queer-identified women from the WNY area. Who is welcome: ALL friends and allies of the lesbian/gay/queer/ trans community.

We are not exclusive and welcome everyone - just remember to leave your baggage at the door! For questions, please message us through Facebook or [email protected]

Organizers: Christina Holdsworth, Tee Fregeaux, Dana Fauth, Susanna Cardoso and Sady Fischer

Rochester organizers: Kate Sweeney, Becky Wiggins and Jen Doyle. News articles about AMBUSH:
