Up Your Alley / Dore Alley 2026
San Francisco, California — July 26, 2026
Known simply as “Dore Alley,” this event is smaller than Folsom Street Fair but many fetish veterans say it’s far dirtier, more intense, and less touristy.
Leather, rubber, harnesses, sportswear, boots, sweaty dance floors, dark bars, and nonstop cruising culture completely take over SOMA for the weekend.
Locals often call it:
“Folsom’s wilder little brother.”
