LeatherWalk 2023
LeatherWalk is the Leather District’s annual SOMA celebration and march.
We will walk together, starting at San Francisco City Hall, pausing at favorite neighborhood spots for entertainment and beverages, typically including favorite SOMA venues such as Oasis, Powerhouse, Hole in the Wall, Azúcar Lounge, Leather Etc., Wicked Grounds, Cat Club, Mr. S Leather, the Ringold Leather History Alley, and the Lone Star Saloon.
The walk ends at Eagle Plaza, where we will raise the Leather Pride Flag, as part of a Leather Pride Festival sponsored by the SF Eagle Bar.
Participation is free. It’s fun, politically important, and a great way to get to know the neighborhood! As always, organizations are invited to bring their banners and insignia, and participants are welcome to proudly display their leather, gear, or skin.
LeatherWalk 2023 benefits the LEATHER & LGBTQ Cultural District, San Francisco’s institution dedicated to keeping our South of Market neighborhood kinky and queer.
