The Los Angeles Leather Coalition and the LA Leather Pride Committee are happy to announce that the 2015 Los Angeles Leather Pride Celebration will take place the week of March 22 – 29, 2015. The theme of this year’s event will be The Tribe: Celebrating the Rites of Passage.
The highlight of Leather Pride will be the selection of Mr. Los Angeles Leather 2015, which will take place on Saturday March 28th at a location to be announced soon.
And as an extra special attraction, the wild and popular OFF SUNSET FESTIVAL street fair will be held on Sunday Mach 29, 2015 the day after the Mr. LA Leather contest and LEGION dance, extending a full weekend of leather and kink fun for everyone!
A series of Mr. LA Leather “Feeder Contests” are being held across the city by various clubs and businesses to select their representing contestant. The qualifying contest schedule is posted on the LA Leather Pride website at laleatherpride.com, and will be updated as new dates are added.
Also confirmed to be returning for 2015 are the very popular Southland Honors Awards celebration as well as The Assembly Uniform Reception.
Additional events will be added soon, so you can expect a full week-long celebration of the leather lifestyle. The 2014 event was a huge success, resulting in significant donations to charity beneficiaries. The 2015 committee expects to out-do those results, and are pulling out all the stops to create a fantastic event week that everyone will want to be part of.
