What is EASTER Berlin?
EASTER Berlin is a leather and fetish week around Easter. The programme includes parties, city and neighbourhood tours, a fetish dinner, a flea market and a hangover breakfast. Its centre is the Nollendorfkiez in Schöneberg. The highlight is the title election on Easter Sunday.
Who organises EASTER Berlin?
The organiser is Berlin Leder und Fetisch e.V. (BLF). The parties during the week, however, are run by various organisers at different Berlin clubs.
History
The first, private Easter meeting took place in 1972. From 1973 it was run by MSC Berlin; after MSC dissolved in 1997, the newly founded BLF took over. EASTER was cancelled in 2020 and held online in 2021. In 2023 the meeting celebrated its 50th edition.
How closely the leather scene and the queer movement are connected is shown in our article Side by Side: BDSM, Kink and Queer Liberation.
From Mr. Leather to Mr. Fetish Berlin
The title Mr. Leather Berlin was awarded from 2010 onwards. In 2026 the BLF renamed it Mr. Fetish Berlin so that rubber, uniform, sports and puppy fans can apply as well. The first Mr. Fetish Berlin was elected on 5 April 2026 at Mikropol.

Our recommendations for EASTER week: the gay-BDSM.club Night – EASTER'27 on 26 March and the Puppy Night of Sins '27 on 27 March 2027, both at sinberlin in Kreuzberg. They are not part of the official BLF programme.
Who is EASTER Berlin for?
EASTER Berlin is a gathering of the gay and queer leather and fetish scene. Several parties are explicitly men only, such as PiG Easter and Testosterone. Daytime formats such as the neighbourhood tours or the flea market are more open. Of our recommendations, the gay-BDSM.club Night on 26 March is men*-only, while the Puppy Night of Sins on 27 March is open to all genders. Not sure whether your gender is welcome? Best ask the organisers directly if the event details here don't make it clear.
Dress code
There is no single dress code for the whole week. Each party sets its own: in 2026 Testosterone required leather or black rubber, while PiG welcomed all fetish outfits. If you want to wear puppy gear, the Puppy Night of Sins on 27 March at sinberlin is the right setting: it is aimed at puppies, pets, handlers and friends.
Awareness and rules
The BLF does not publish an overarching awareness concept. At the parties, the house rules of the respective clubs and organisers apply.
Tickets
Tickets are available in advance via blf.de, and the first tickets for 2027 can already be booked. Some events, e.g. the flea market, are free. The BLF publishes prices per event; prices for 2027 have not been set yet.

Tips for your visit
-
Download the digital pocket guide 2027 in advance: it lists all dates and venues of the EASTER programme. Further kink events in Berlin around Easter, including those that are not part of the EASTER programme, can be found in the calendar on kinkyevents.berlin.
-
If you are new to the scene, start with a neighbourhood tour, the flea market or the charity goulash. It is easier to get talking there than at a party. Another good way to meet people: Die Teegesellschaft at sinberlin, e.g. on 6 March or 24 April 2027.
-
Check the dress code of each party separately, especially for men-only events.
-
Easter is a busy travel period: book accommodation in Schöneberg early.
-
The Mr. Fetish election is worth attending as a spectator too; it is a good place to meet the scene.
