LGBTQ Milpitas
While Milpitas is far from being a city known for its LGBTQ community, as we really have no night life here for anyone, we do have activities and services to serve this part of our community, and most businesses are open and friendly to people of all sorts.
Milpitas is proud to be the hometown of Broadway’s Drag Darling Cacophony Daniels.
