A fun fetish fair in the Sun – San Francisco Style! 2022
More hardcore than its big brother, September’s Folsom Street Fair, Up Your Alley, or Dore Alley is a fetish market not for the faint of heart! Enjoy a weekend of fetish parties and circuit events in the lead up to the final Sunday of the month, when the fair comes to life and fetish lovers unite.
The Dore Alley Fair
- 31st July 2022 – The Up Your Alley Fair is most commonly referred to by locals as Dore Alley Fair or simply Dore Alley, a leather and fetish event held in San Francisco, California on the last Sunday of July on Folsom Street between 9th and 10th Streets and on Dore Street from Howard Street to half a block southeast of Folsom Street.
- Up Your Alley attracts leather loves, hot guys, daddies and fetish lovers. Of course, if rubber, sportswear, biker gear, skinheads, punks, or any variety of built, hairy men turns you on, then you won’t be disappointed. As the organisers state, “If you’re into it, there’s a scene for you”.
- Located in front of the legendary Powerhouse bar, an anything-goes gay leather bar, nearly 15,000 fellow leather men and fetish enthusiasts engage in BDSM play at over 50 adult vendor spaces! Spanking, punching, whips and floggers, bondage, domination and submission, creative water-sports, toys and so much more are in full effect.
- A sound stage (for dancing) is located at the 10th Street end of Folsom Street.
- Book your hotel in advance as the weekend attracts thousands of visitors from San Francisco and beyond. Stay in Soma, close to all the action.
