Buff up your cowhide and dust down your harness… here are some of the biggest fetish festivals and kink gatherings coming up in the US to start planning for now. We will share each of them separately.
Fourth coming up is International Mr. Leather, Chicago
Chicago’s International Mr. Leather convention is one of the biggest leather festivals in the world. It pulls in visitors from across the globe and has gone to great steps to diversify in recent years, welcoming trans participants, the pup community and other kink lovers. A trans man, Alistair LeatherHiraeth, won the most recent International Mr. Bootblack title this year. And we are also very proud of our own handsome Belgian guy Gael, who took the title of International Mister Leather 2022!!!
The 2023 festival will run from May 25-29, and it will be a special one. It will mark the sapphire anniversary (45 years) of the International Mr. Leather contest. The action takes place in and around the host hotel: Chicago’s historic Congress Hotel and Convention Center. The contests take place in the Auditorium Theatre. Hotel and ticket packages went on sale at the beginning of August, so now is the best time to secure your place.
Besides the contests, expect plenty of associated parties to explore your leather fantasies. It’s not all about wild hedonism, either. There’s also a huge market space, exhibitions on leather scene history, and—for any 12-steppers—the chance to attend daily recovery sessions.
International Mr. Leather is all about celebrating and supporting the leather community. It’s the reason visitors return year after year.
