Info
Folsom Europe takes place from the 6th to the 10th September 2023, 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".
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 celebrates its 20th anniversary 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.
Beside of the street fair we will present a week full of wow moments: 5 major parties during the weekend, fetish theme parties at the local bars and clubs all week long, cigar nights and BLUF meetings, the world’s biggest leather and fetish retail offer presented by dozens of outstanding and unique stores in Berlin, three sightseeing bus tours, a party boat tour, a classic concert and the FOLSOM EUROPE art centre at an original former Berlin jail. So we recommend: come on Wednesday or earlier and stay at least until Sunday. Because you don’t want to miss the best leather and fetish week of 2023. Don’t be late – book your train or flight tickets and your hotel room or apartment NOW!
