In an innovative blend of Mardi Gras exuberance and the underground world of fetish, Mr. City Entertainment is setting the stage for its third annual Fetish Gras. Scheduled from February 9-11, this fantasy weekend promises to captivate the historic Hillcrest Community with its unique themes catered to the leather fetish aficionados.
Kink Street and Decadent Nights
The festivities kick off with Kink Street on Friday night at The Rail, transforming a once-seedy alley into a haven for those intrigued by the world of BDSM. Visitors will be treated to fetish demonstrations by Alpha Rob of Detoxxx Leather, alongside shadow box kink performances and go-go dancers, enveloping attendees in an immersive experience. The following night, The Rail morphs into a pulsating dance floor for the Revolution Decadance circuit party, with DJ Arno Diem setting the musical backdrop, courtesy of Revolution Party’s Alberto Bernal.
A Finale of Spectacle and Celebration
The grand finale unfolds at Rich’s with the Krewez Tea Dance, where the essence of Bourbon Street is recreated. This event not only features leather and fetish vendors but also boasts street performers and a show-stopping performance by San Diego’s Dom Queen Scarlett of Scarlett Fever. DJ Shane Marcus, known for his appearances at Cherry Festival and World Pride NYC, will headline, ensuring the weekend concludes on a high note.
Uniting a Community with Open Minds and Open Hearts
Inspired by iconic events like Dore Alley and Folsom Street Fair, Fetish Gras aims to forge a sense of unity among open-minded individuals on the West Coast. Joshua Simmons, the visionary behind Mr. City Entertainment, articulates the essence of Fetish Gras as a platform for the community to proudly showcase their kinks without fear of judgment. This event not only celebrates diversity but also emphasizes acceptance within the LGBTQ community.
With partners such as Pecs, San Diego Eagle, and various local promoters, Fetish Gras is a testament to the collaborative spirit of Hillcrest’s vibrant community. This weekend promises an unforgettable journey of exploration and celebration, marking another chapter in the rich tapestry of LGBTQ culture.
