Folsom Europe 2022 Berlin

Info

Folsom Europe takes place from the 7th to the 11th September 2022, and is the Biggest Fetish Street Fair in Europe

Folsom Europe was established in 2003 in order to bring the non-profit leather festival concept pioneered by the Folsom Street Fair in San Francisco to Europe. In 2005 Berlin called the young event a “difficult case” worrying about issues of decency. Despite all obstacles, the organisers held on to the concept and succeeded. The infamous then mayor of Berlin, Klaus Wowereit, saluted the festival in 2006 with the words: “An event such as Folsom Europe is just right for Berlin: As a meeting point for people from across the world, who visit a tolerant and cosmopolitan city to party and meet with like minded folks and to raise funds for charitable causes and hence help to overcome prejudices.“
Today, Folsom Europe is supported by the Berlin tourism board and is regarded as the most important leather / fetish street fair in Europe. Since its first year in 2004, Folsom Europe has become a world-famous fetish event with a huge street fair and lots of parties. This year, Europe’s largest gay fetish event in September at various venues across Berlin. Thousands of guys in leather & fetish gear will be walking the streets in the Berlin-Schöneberg district. Expect a long weekend of fun, freedom and sleaze in one of the world’s most vibrant capitals. Folsom Europe e.V. would like to express its gratitude to all our helpers, supporters, customers and sponsors for their wonderful cooperation.

Events
The main inside parties (with a lot of action) are Pig and Perverts. Besides that, there are many other parties for specific fetishes, and most of the gay bars organise something as well.
