SF’s LeatherWalk 2021: Kinky Leather Parade (City Hall to The Eagle)

Submitted by the Event Organizer

After a hiatus, LeatherWalk returns this year as the traditional launch to San Francisco’s Leather Week. Proudly produced by the LEATHER & LGBTQ Cultural District, on Sunday, September 19, we will walk together starting at City Hall, pausing at favorite neighborhood spots and watering holes, and culminating with the Leather Pride Fest, sponsored by the SF Eagle, at Eagle Plaza.

LeatherWalk 2021 benefits the LEATHER & LGBTQ Cultural District, a unique San Francisco institution dedicated to keeping our South of Market neighborhood queer and kinky.

LeatherWalk 2021 will take place on SUNDAY, SEPTEMBER 19, 2021.

LeatherWalk is the official kick-off for San Francisco’s Leather Week, which culminates one week later at the Megahood 2021 Street Fair on Folsom Street.
