Easter Berlin — Leather & Fetish Week

Easter Berlin is the city's leather and fetish week, run every Easter by Berlin Leder und Fetisch e.V. (BLF) in Schöneberg's gay quarter around Nollendorfplatz, Motzstraße and Fuggerstraße. It follows Easter, so it moves each year: it starts midweek and ends on Easter Monday. BLF dates its own involvement back to 1973.

The week is a run of parties and meetups rather than one venue. The anchor is the PiG party at Club Metropol, alongside smaller nights such as Rubber Lust and Sneakfreaxx and a fetish boat on the Spree. Over the Easter weekend a free outdoor fetish festival fills Nollendorfplatz from noon to 8 pm. Single party tickets start at around €20, and BLF sells week passes and combo tickets. KiezTour also runs fetish-history walks of the neighbourhood in German and English.

The 2026 week ran 31 March to 6 April. That year BLF replaced the Mr. Leather Berlin contest with Mr. Fetish Berlin, open to rubber, sneaker, sports and pup fans as well as leather; it was held on Easter Sunday on the outdoor stage. Easter Sunday falls on 28 March in 2027, but BLF hadn't published the 2027 dates when we checked.
