Barcelona Rubber Weekend returns for its 13th edition, bringing four days of latex, rubber, fetish parties and community events to the city’s Gaixample district. The highlight is the Rubber Spain Ambassador 2027 contest, alongside workshops, social gatherings, a fetish marketplace and late-night parties for experienced rubbermen and curious newcomers alike.

  • Stay at H10 Casanova, the event’s recommended hotel on Gran Via, with contemporary rooms, a rooftop bar and a convenient location for the weekend’s activities.

Barcelona Rubber Weekend – The Event

  • Next Event: Thursday, November 26, 2026 To Sunday, November 29, 2026.
  • The four-day festival is organised by Barcelona’s rubber community, which has been involved in the Rubber Spain contest since 2014.
  • The programme caters to everyone from first-time rubber enthusiasts to experienced fetish enthusiasts, with daytime workshops and socials balancing the late-night parties.
  • Friday’s Rubber Spain Ambassador contest is the centrepiece of the weekend, followed by the official BRW26 party.
  • Other highlights include the Beyond Darklands Gummi party, latex repair demonstrations, a rubber-making workshop and Saturday’s Open Rubber event.
  • Most activities are concentrated in the Gaixample, making the festival easy to explore on foot.
  • Check out the 10 best hotels in Barcelona.

Mr Rubber Spain – The Ambassador Contest

The Rubber Spain Ambassador 2027 contest takes place on Friday 27th November at Imperial Club Social.

The competition is about more than looking good in latex. Contestants are assessed on their personality, communication, creativity and involvement in the rubber community.

Each entrant meets the jury, introduces themselves on stage and presents a fantasy performance. The evening also includes a surprise round and an audience vote.

  • Contestants must be at least 18 years old, belong to the LGBTQ+ community and be Spanish citizens or residents of Spain.
  • Entrants must own the rubber outfit they wear for the competition, although additional performance accessories may be borrowed.
  • The jury accounts for 75% of the result, with the audience contributing 25%.
  • Applications close on 25th November 2026.

The winner becomes Rubber Spain Ambassador 2027, representing the community at events and gatherings throughout the following year.

Read the official Rubber Spain contest rules and application details.

What to Expect

  • Barcelona Rubber Weekend has a particularly sociable character. Unlike festivals focused almost entirely on club nights, it offers opportunities to meet other rubber enthusiasts over lunch, attend practical workshops and discover new fetish designers.
  • Friday afternoon is ideal for shopping and learning more about latex care. The marketplace at Axel Hotel brings together rubber-related products, while the Vivishine station and latex repair clinic offer practical advice for maintaining your gear.
  • The late-night programme provides a different atmosphere, with rubber-focused dance parties and cruising events. Check each activity’s individual admission and dress-code requirements before attending.
  • For newcomers, the welcome social at Boxer Café Bar is the easiest introduction. Regular attendees can reconnect with friends before heading to the weekend’s more specialised events.
