PORTLAND Ore. (KPTV) - A cornerstone of Portland�s LGBTQ+ community, CC Slaughters announced it will close its doors permanently this summer.
Slaughters opened in 1981 as a dance club that attracted gay customers.
Since then, it has grown to include a variety of performers and events
that that cater to the wider LGBTQ+ community.
In 2020, the club, which sits between NW 2nd and 3rd Ave. on NW Davis
St., closed temporarily during the COVID-19 pandemic, and later reopened
in April 2021.
�CC Slaughters has played an iconic [role] as a safe-space for queer
nightlife for over 44 years in Portland,� the club wrote on Facebook.
�We are looking forward to serving Portland for the next two final
months of business.�
The club said their doors are set to close permanently on Aug. 3, 2025.
