The twenty‐first century has seen rapid developments to the structure of queer space. Following technological development and the shuttering of LGBTQ+ bars, clubs, and other physical institutions, transitory queer spaces such as digital networks and pop‐up events have become important forms of queer spatial life, bringing into question how queer social organization and community can be sustained. This article applies an intersectional, neo‐Durkheimian approach to contemporary sociological debates on how queer spaces have transformed from physical to digital and ephemeral forms. We consider how these transformations shape debates over inclusivity and exclusion, commodification, and globalization. Finally, we argue that an intersectional, neo‐Durkheimian approach can enable new directions for research on queer space, helping us better understand how solidarity is maintained—or disrupted—in and through space.
