FOLSOM EUROPE
2009 has been a huge success once more again. More than 25,000 visitors from all over the world enjoyed the sixth edition of our event. This success has also been recognized outside Germany. In late 2008 FOLSOM EUROPE has been voted as "Best European Fetish Event of the Year 2008" by the British fetish people. Thank you to all visitors: from the Unted Kingdom as well as from anywhere else on the planet. During International Mr. Leather 2009 Folsom Europe e.V. has received the Pantheon Award as Best Non-Profit Organization 2009.

Our PR manager Jürgen Rentzel has received the International Award and our member and sponsor Oswin Struik (RoB and PIG) has been elected as Businessman of the Year. Including our Pantehon from 2006, we have now collected 4 Pantheon Awards. Thank you for all the recognition! During the same time, our co-founder and ex member of the Board of Directors has been chosen (as one of 3 Europeans) to serve the Board of Directors of the Leather Hall of Fame in Cleveland.
On September 4th, 2010 FOLSOM EUROPE takes place a 7th time. From 12.00 to 21.00 we celebrate once more Europe's biggest leather and fetish event. We expect more than 20.000 visitor from all over the world. Directly adjacent to the new Design-Hotel AXEL they dive into the atmoshpere of a friendly neighberhood with food and drink stalls, shopping and information booths, accompanied by the music of the hippest European DJ's. At the entrances the Sister Of Perpetual Indulgence will ask for a donation to support our beneficiaries.
Welcome to Berlin!

RESPECT
FOLSOM EUROPE has always been watched carefully by the public. Some neighbours are not that familiar with our community, and you cannot blame them for it. Some of their complains are very understandable.
|
 |
One of the reasons why we organize FOLSOM EUROPE is the call for respect to our life styles.
We expect to be warmly welcomed by the residents on this our day, but also the residents will expect us to behave like guests.
Therefore please remember our three basics FOLSOM EUROPE rules.
*Nicely packed away heightens the anticipation – keep the private parts covered.
*Sex is fun – above all in dark rooms and at our parties. The street is however taboo!
*and the use of our toilets on the streets is free. Gardens and backyards do not require additional fertilizer!
We appeal to all visitors to live a respectful association with your fellow human beings. Thank you!

Beneficiaries

With the streetfair the organizers pursue three goals: The strengthening of the leather and fetish scene, the increase of their visibility in the public in order to reduce prejudices and the support of charitable associations and organisations in Europe taking care of people with HIV and AIDS.
In the United States with the Folsom Street Fair every year hundreds of thousands of US Dollar are being raised supporting a wide range of different projects. FOLSOM EUROPE in Berlin and its range of different and new events has managed to raise more than 50.000 Euros with the help of its visitors and volunteers and donate them to various charitable projects.
