Planning your trip to the infamous Folsom Street Fair? It’s our “only in San Francisco” annual street party happening right in the middle of SOMA, always on the last Sunday of September.
Sunday 28 September, we welcome hundreds of thousands from around the globe to the biggest leather and kink festival in the world, since 1984. It’s all about celebrating our communities and letting your freak flag fly.
The fair takes up several city blocks and is packed with live music, DJs, hot erotic art, epic performances, demos, and tons of vendors selling gear, sexy costumes, and accessories.
People really go all out dressing in leather, latex, and less, making the vibe bold and totally free-spirited. And don’t worry — while it’s definitely adult-themed, it’s all about respect, consent, body positivity, and creating a space where everyone lifts each other up.

It’s not just a wild party; it’s a symbol of San Francisco’s history of sexual liberation and human rights activism. No wonder it’s one of the city’s most iconic and loved festivals!
