Dear friends of Folsom Europe,

We are all experiencing difficult times that we could have hardly imagined a few months ago. 

The corona pandemic has frozen our daily life. Slowly we try to come back to a daily routine. The non-profit organization Folsom Europe e.V. had to cancel this years streetfair which has been a hard decision. But we know that the heart of our community is still beating. The fans and followers of the fetish capital Berlin and FOLSOM EUROPE remain strongly connected with us and also follow what happens in Berlin these days. 

THE VIRTUAL EDITION OF FOLSOM EUROPE 2020

We wanna share that Berlin feeling with you and get you ready for your next visit in 2021 to enjoy the main events of our city. So we are planning a VIRTUAL FOLSOM EUROPE 2020 including video messages from all over the world sent in by our friends and fans. They will be part of the 3-day livestream and be placed on our webpage as well.

Liebe Freude von FOLSOM EUROPE,

aufgrund der weltweiten Lage rund um Covid-19 haben wir uns entschieden, FOLSOM EUROPE 2020 abzusagen!
Die Sicherheit aller Besucher und Mitglieder hat oberste Priorität für uns. Und solange es keinen Impfstoff gegen das SARS-CoV-2-Virus gibt, sind Großveranstaltungen wie unser Straßenfest nicht möglich. 
Diese Entscheidung fällt uns nicht leicht, sie ist aber die einzig richtige in diesen Tagen. 
Wir werden in den nächsten Wochen mit den Freunden und Partnern des Vereins einige Online-Aktionen starten – ihr werdet also von uns hören. 
Persönlich freuen wir uns dann auf ein Wiedersehen in Berlin im September 2021.

Der Vorstand von Folsom Europe e.V., Berlin

Heartbroken and devastated we have to announce that Daniel Dumont has died last night. 
He has lost his fight against Covid-19 after a few days in coma. 

Daniel has been a member of the Board of Governors of the Leather Hall of Fame, the Secretary of the ECMC, the President of MSC Belgium, a two times judge at IMrL – and most important: a sweetheart and a dear friend to all of us.
