Fetish Week
London
2026 Is Back
- And It’s
Turning 15
Right, get this in your calendar now: 5–12 July 2026.
Fetish Week London is back in the capital for its 15th
anniversary, and it’s shaping up to be a big one.
For eight full days, thousands of gay, bi, queer, trans, and curious men from
around the world will be heading to London for what’s become the UK’s
largest gathering of kinky men. Whether you’re leather, rubber, sportswear,
pup, skin, into something niche, or just dipping your toe in, FWL has always
been as much about community as it is about gear.
As usual, Electrowerkz becomes the official FWL home base for the
week. The industrial warehouse space transforms into kinky HQ - hosting
many of the main events and giving everyone a central place to meet up,
dance, play, and reconnect. The favourite flagship events are staying put,
but there’ll be new twists and updates across the programme to keep
things fresh.
A real highlight is the FWL Event Hub and Gear Market, running from
Wednesday 8 to Saturday 11 July at Electrowerkz. During the day, the venue
opens up as a social space where you can browse fetish retailers, grab a
deal at the Gear Market, or rummage through the Second-Hand Gear Swap
& Shop for hidden treasures.
It’s not just about shopping either. There’ll be DJs, demos,
masterclasses, panel talks, and sober meet-ups - plus loads of space
to hang out, catch up with mates, and meet new faces. It’s a great way to
balance the late nights with some proper daytime connection.
And it’s not confined to one venue. Kink-friendly bars, shops, and
community groups across London will be hosting their own events
throughout the week, so you can build your own schedule depending on
your vibe (and your stamina).
FWL has always evolved alongside the scene, and this anniversary
edition promises a few surprises along the way.
