Undercover Folsom Street : Leather & LGBTQ Cultural District Walking Tour (SF)

Come visit the world’s first LEATHER & LGBTQ Cultural District, located in San Francisco’s South of Market (SoMa) neighborhood!

Since the 1960’s, SoMa has been home to a myriad of bars, restaurants, nightlife venues, publishing organizations, homophile organizations, bath houses, and more, putting SF’s Leather scene in the international spotlight. Leather culture was particularly robust along the stretch of Folsom Street once nicknamed the “Miracle Mile” and “Valley of the Kings”.

Co-led by a City Walks tour guide, and a SF Planning Department Historic Preservationist.

Meet onsite at 3 pm! The tour starts at the corner of Ringold Alley and 9th Street (i.e. on 9th, halfway between Folsom and Harrison Streets). It ends at 8th and Ringold. Followed by an optional Happy Hour at the Eagle, one of the world’s only landmarked leather bars.

Free of charge! Registration is not required.
