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.

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.
Contestants from last year. It was a GREAT event!

When you have a serious kinky fetish that needs to be tickled, look no further than SoCal Drummer, California's leader in leather craftsmanship. We innovate. We deliver.
Gear up for SoCal Drummer Fetish Weekend 2015 — a testosterone-fueled weekend of kink and play attracting fetishists from all over the Southwest.
Gay kinksters — into rubber, leather, sports kit, skinhead, uniforms, punk, military and more — will converge for three days of dungeon play, kink workshops, bar nights, cigar socials, and the SoCal Drummer fetish contests.
Make your weekend adventure as unique as your fetish. Whether you’re exclusive to one fetish or partake in many, the dungeon is your play space.
SoCal Drummer rekindles the Drummer tradition of self-identified gay masculinity. In the spirit
of our community’s history, the SoCal Drummer titles — SoCal Drummer, SoCal Drummerboy
and SoCal Drummer Bootblack — will celebrate the range of fetish and kink identities of gay men. Watch who the judges pick as the first SoCal Drummer titleholders!
SoCal Drummer Fetish Weekend 2015, April 24-26; Come for the kink; Come for the play; Come for the contests — or JUST COME!
