PiG Berlin 2027
The Official Folsom Party
One of the biggest gay fetish and cruising parties to take place in Berlin featuring some of the best circuit DJs.
PiG 2027 The Official Folsom Europe Party, Berlin
PiG is Folsom Europe‘s men-only Saturday-night fetish party, bringing thousands of leather, rubber and kink fans together for a large-scale club night with dance floors, play areas and a strict fetish dress policy.
- Stay at the Mercure Hotel Berlin Wittenbergplatz – a polished four-star option beside Wittenbergplatz, within walking distance of the Schöneberg bars and Folsom street fair.
The Party
- Next Edition: Saturday, September 11, 2027 .
- PiG takes place after the main Folsom Europe Street Fair on Saturday night.
- The party traditionally opens at 11 pm and continues until late, with final 2027 opening times awaiting confirmation.
- Expect 3,000+ guys from across Europe and beyond, making PiG one of the biggest nights of the Folsom weekend.
- Two main dance floors mix international house and electronic sounds with a harder Berlin-style floor.
- Away from the dance floors, the venue is transformed with extensive cruising and play areas.
- PiG operates a strict fetish dress code and is a men-only event.
- Leather, rubber, sportswear, uniforms, harnesses and other serious fetish looks are typical.
- The 2027 DJ line-up and ticket details are awaiting announcement.
PiG is produced as Folsom Europe’s own signature party. The event has become a major source of support for the non-profit organisation behind the wider Folsom Europe weekend.
What to Expect
- PiG is the big Saturday night for visitors who want the full-scale Folsom party experience.
- The setting is a big part of its appeal. Alte Münze’s former industrial spaces are turned into a multi-room fetish club with large dance floors, darker areas for cruising and spaces where you can move away from the main music.
- The crowd covers a broad range of fetish tribes, ages and body types. Leather remains prominent, joined by rubber, sportswear, uniforms, harnesses and other kink looks.
- This is not a casual club night. PiG promotes a strict fetish dress policy, so plan what you are wearing before arriving rather than relying on regular street clothes.
- Recent editions have featured two international main floors plus a Berlin floor, bringing together visiting circuit DJs and Berlin-based selectors. The official 2024 programme, for example, featured artists including Chris Bekker, Alejandro Alvarez, William Sizen Bell, Skippo and Rafa Nunes.
The Venue – Alte Münze
- PiG takes place at Alte Münze, Molkenmarkt 2, 10179 Berlin-Mitte.
- The former Berlin mint is a sprawling industrial event complex close to Alexanderplatz.
- PiG uses its large halls and interconnected spaces to create separate dance, cruising and social areas.
- The raw architecture suits the party particularly well, with concrete rooms, industrial corridors and darker spaces transformed for the night.
- Klosterstraße U-Bahn station is one of the closest stations, with Alexanderplatz within easy reach.
- The venue is in Mitte rather than Schöneberg, so allow time to travel across the city from the Folsom Street Fair.
- The official Folsom Europe programme continues to list Alte Münze as the home of PiG.
Getting There
- Most Folsom visitors stay around Schöneberg, where the Street Fair and many of the weekend’s bars and events are concentrated.
- From Nollendorfplatz, the U2 provides a straightforward connection towards central Berlin, with Klosterstraße convenient for Alte Münze.
- A taxi is often the easier choice late at night, particularly if you are travelling in full fetish gear. Allow roughly 20 minutes from the Schöneberg gay district in normal traffic, with extra time around the end of the Street Fair when demand is high.
Folsom Europe Weekend
- Folsom Europe returns from Wednesday 8th September to Sunday 12th September 2027.
- The weekend brings thousands of leather, rubber, puppy, sportswear and fetish visitors to Berlin, with the main activity centred on Schöneberg.
- PiG is the signature Saturday-night party and follows the main Street Fair. Other official Folsom events cover bears, leather, pups and different fetish communities across the weekend.
Where to Stay
Stay in Schöneberg rather than beside Alte Münze if Folsom is the main reason for your trip. You will be close to the Street Fair, fetish stores, cruising bars and daytime events, with PiG easily reached by U-Bahn or taxi on Saturday night.
- Mercure Hotel Berlin Wittenbergplatz – Fashion-led rooms directly on Wittenbergplatz, steps from KaDeWe and close to the Schöneberg gay district. The U-Bahn location makes travelling to PiG particularly easy.
- RIU Plaza Berlin – Spacious contemporary rooms, a gym and plenty of space for a longer Folsom stay. Nollendorfplatz, Motzstraße and the Street Fair area are within walking distance.
- Scandic Berlin Kurfürstendamm – A quieter base close to Wittenbergplatz with a gym and sauna, useful when you want somewhere calmer between the weekend’s parties.
- SANA Berlin Hotel – Modern rooms and apartments with an indoor pool and wellness facilities. The apartment-style accommodation works particularly well for guests staying for the complete Folsom week.
PiG Tips
- Buy tickets in advance once 2027 sales open. PiG is one of the busiest events of the weekend.
- Check the current dress-code rules before packing your gear.
- Use the cloakroom rather than carrying jackets through the venue.
- Arrive with your phone charged and arrange a meeting point if you are attending with friends. Alte Münze is a large venue and groups can easily become separated.
- Saturday is a long day. The Street Fair runs through the afternoon and evening before PiG opens late at night.
- Book accommodation early. Schöneberg hotels fill quickly for Folsom weekend.
