REAL BAD presents RITUAL After Hours 2024
Join the REAL BAD Circle of Friends for the return of the after-hours dance party on late Saturday night/early Sunday morning during Dore Alley Fair.
- Are you visiting for San Francisco’s Dore Alley Weekend? Stay close to the Mission District for a different vibe and host to San Francisco’s famous fetish and leather parties.
The Party
- Awaiting date, lineup and venue confirmation.
- Join the hottest leather and fetish guys from San Francisco and beyond who never say no to a party!
- Enjoy amazing shows, the hottest gogos and stunning laser light show.
- Ritual is the final part of the Dore Alley Weekend, kicking off at 4 am to 9 am.
- As with their flagship event, you can expect world-class production, friendly and flirty hospitality, and unmatched dance floor magic, benefiting local LGBT nonprofits.
The Venue
- Ritual takes place at 1015 Folsom – the perfect venue for this full-on event. Deep down inside its heart, 1015 Folsom knows what it is.
- The swanky interior design, the sprawling interior, the long list of incredible, not-quite-mainstream superstars, the casual dress code, the unpretentiousness…1015 is what dance clubs were before the money, fame, and see-and-be-seen scene became the main reason to go out.
- Stay close to the venue at the Hotel Zetta, rated “Fabulous” by guests with spacious rooms, high-end amenities and a perfect location for enjoying the fair and the city’s attractions.
Where to Stay?
- San Francisco is divided into several neighbourhoods, but the primary 2 are The Castro and Soma
- Soma is home to Folsom Street and most of the leather and fetish bars.
- Stay close to all the tourist attractions in some of the best hotels in the city, in the downtown/union square district
