FOLSOM EUROPE 2025

Folsom Europe 2025 is happening from August 27th–31st! For the first time, we’re shifting to August — just for one year. 2026 will return to September as usual. There are a few good reasons for the change, but let’s just say... timing is everything. Hotel deals are already heating up, so grab yours now!

POCKET GUIDE

As every year, we dropped our new pocket guide at Easter, kicking things off with a thrilling launch in Berlin. Packed with 160 pages of essential info, it’s your ultimate companion to the Folsom Europe experience—events, parties, tips, and everything in between. Thousands of copies are already making their way around the globe.

Street Fair

In 2004, Folsom Europe e.V. unleashed its very first street fair on Fuggerstr. and Welserstr. in Berlin-Schöneberg, drawing 3,500 curious and kinky souls from across Europe and North America. Fast forward to our 22nd edition—this year we’re expecting over 20,000 fetish lovers from six continents to join the biggest leather and fetish event in Europe!

Mark your calendars: the infamous Berlin street fair takes over on Saturday, August 30th, from 12:00 to 22:00. Get ready to strut, sweat, and celebrate.

On Fuggerstr., you’ll find our main stage—brought to life by Darklands and recon—and just around the corner, the wild and woofy Animal Farm powered by NaughtyFox, welcoming pups, furries, and their handlers. Surrounding the action: dozens of sexy vendors, cocktail and beer bars, food trucks, bootblacks, barbers, lockers, and info booths to keep you geared up and in the know.

The full program is in our pocket guide (printed version), online, or in the Folsom Europe App.

Paws, Fur & Play: The Rise of Puppies and Furries

The Rise of the Puppies
Puppies and furries are on the rise — and we love to see it!

FOLSOM EUROPE has welcomed more playful tails and furry faces than ever before. What started as a niche is now a full-blown part of the scene, bringing fresh energy and fun to the streets of Berlin.

This year, you can look forward to bar events, a joyful puppy walk, the legendary Puppy Games on Sunday at prideArt@theKnast, and our Puppy Sightseeing Bus rolling through the city on Friday afternoon — right alongside the fetish bus.

And for those who love to play and dance, the ANIMALZ party is calling all pups to the floor.

Get your puppy bus ticket here and join the fun!
