FETISH GRAS WEEKEND LINE UP
KINK STREET
FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 13 — KINK STREET
9PM–2AM | Opening Party | The Brass Rail
The weekend begins on Kink Street—gritty, charged, and ready to set the tone. This is where Fetish Gras flips the switch.
Slip into the shadows, lean into the neon, and explore the side of you that comes alive after dark. Step up to the House of Kink, a dedicated demo space featuring live kink and sensation-focused demos by Alpha Rob and crew, ranging from bold, high-impact moments to slower, more sensual play.
The Fetish Gras Tree debuts for the weekend with giveaways and surprises for early arrivals, plus gear-forward freebies waiting at the door to help get you in the right headspace from the jump.
🎧 DJ: Brady Prince (Chicago)
Vibe: gritty • exploratory • charged
Dress: kink, gear, or whatever makes you feel dangerous
SATURDAY, FEBRUARY 14 — KREWEZ ALLEY MARKET (DAYTIME)
3PM–7PM | Kink Market & Learning Fair | Rich's San Diego
Brand new to the lineup, Krewez Alley Market is a daytime market and learning space created for the kink, leather, and fetish community—and for those curious, questioning, or ready to explore.
Expect 13+ vendors, live educational and demo moments throughout the afternoon, tarot card readers, and street-style performances woven into a relaxed, open, daytime atmosphere.
This is the chance to browse, ask questions, learn, and connect—no club pressure, no nighttime intensity.
Vibe: welcoming • curious • community-focused
Dress: casual, gear, or come as you are
SATURDAY, FEBRUARY 14 — DECADENCE (MAIN EVENT)
9PM–4AM | Kinky Masquerade | The Brass Rail
The signature night of Fetish Gras returns.
Decadence is the main event—a kinky masquerade where you can hide behind your mask… or let every inhibition fall and parade itself proudly.
This year, the focus goes deeper into the music. With the party running until 4AM, expect a heavier, longer ride built for the dance floor, layered with moments of spectacle and surprise throughout the night.
🎧 DJ Lineup:
• Matt Suave (Denver)
• C3
• DJ Guatamex
Special guest JBSAX joins from Canada for a live sax performance alongside Matt Suave—adding an unexpected, high-drama edge to the night.
Vibe: opulent • charged • theatrical
Dress: kink masquerade • Mardi Gras excess • parade your fantasy
SUNDAY, FEBRUARY 15 — GEAR XL: CRANKED UP!
Official Fetish Gras Weekend Closing Party | The Brass Rail
End Fetish Gras Weekend exactly the way it should end—sweaty, loud, and surrounded by men in gear.
GEAR XL: Cranked Up! returns for its second run, closing out the weekend with a fully gear-forward dance floor, heavy beats, and a crowd that actually shows up dressed for it. If you’ve been before, you know the energy. If this is your first time, this is the night where everything comes together.
🎧 DJ: T'Don (Atlanta)
Dark, driving, late-night energy built to keep the floor packed until the lights come up.
Expect a nonstop dance floor, fetish-forward visuals, go-go dancers, and a crowd here to dance, cruise, and connect—no filler, no distractions, just a proper close to a big weekend.
Vibe: heavy • sweaty • unapologetic
Dress: gear first • leather, rubber, harnesses, pups, uniforms, fetishwear encouraged
We Are Back & Kinkier Than Ever
FETISH GRAS WEEKEND
Fetish Gras has become a staple in San Diego’s queer nightlife—where Mardi Gras meets leather, lace, and unapologetic kink.
Now celebrating its 5th anniversary, the only Fetish Mardi Gras celebration in the U.S. returns President’s Day Weekend, which aligns perfectly with Mardi Gras Weekend in 2026.
This year, we’re teaming up again with the powerhouse GEAR XL, and we’re going bigger than ever—
Think immersive, over-the-top set design, provocative fetish demos, and interactive experiences that make you part of the story.
With 4 official events (and more surprises still brewing), Fetish Gras 2026 promises to be a full-on kink carnival like no other.
The Legacy of Fetish Gras
What began as a wild idea—to blend the sensual chaos of Mardi Gras with the raw, expressive power of queer fetish culture—has become something so much more.
Fetish Gras Weekend started as a single-night celebration and has evolved into a 3-day gathering of exploration, expression, and community. Over the years, it’s grown into a landmark for the LGBTQ+ kink world—a space where you don’t have to explain your desires, only express them.
In San Diego, a city steeped in leather history, Fetish Gras now carries a legacy of visibility, artistry, and unapologetic joy. It’s not just about parties—though the parties are unforgettable—it’s about creating a home for those who live on the edge of convention.
Our Colors...Our Code
Like Mardi Gras, Fetish Gras flies its own set of colors—but these aren't just for show.
🟣 Purple – Exploration
A color of curiosity and courage. It honors the journey of discovering new sides of yourself, your desires, and your identity.
🟢 Green – Expression
A celebration of boldness. Green represents the fearless act of showing up, dressing up, and standing out. This is your signal to be seen.
🟡 Yellow – Community
The heart of Fetish Gras. Yellow is warmth, welcome, and connection. It binds us together and reminds us that we’re never alone in the shadows.
Together, these colors form a spectrum of what it means to live fully and freely—in gear, in glitter, and in truth.
This Is More Than a Party It’s a Movement
Fetish Gras Weekend isn’t just San Diego’s boldest queer event—it’s a gathering of the unapologetic, a destination for leather lovers, nightlife visionaries, and kink-curious explorers from across the country.
In 2025, we welcomed 1,000+ attendees across three days.
In 2026, we aim even higher!
This is where community meets spectacle.
Where sponsors reach a loyal, passionate crowd.
Where out-of-towners discover a weekend that feels like home—and leaves them changed.
Come for the party. Stay for the people.
Be part of the 5th anniversary of a growing legacy.
