Berlin's best fetish clubs and parties

Few cities in the world have a reputation in the fetish community like Berlin. The well-known fetish events 'Ostertreffen’ and 'Folsom Europe' certainly play an important role in this, with parties organised especially for them. In the queer fetish bars you can also meet other people from your community outside of these events. Whether you're into bondage, leather, puppy, rubber or something else - in Berlin you can celebrate your fetish. Especially in these clubs and at these regular parties!

Hedonistic partying for fetishists of all kinks: The "Kit Kat Club".

Kit Kat Club

Anyone who mentions fetish in Berlin can hardly avoid the Saturday party at the "Kit Kat Club". The "CarneBall Bizarre" is known and loved far beyond the city limits. People of all genders and sexual orientations meet here, and the boundaries of the different categories dissolve to a certain extent. The "Kit Kat" is fully equipped with several dance floors playing a selection of the best techno music in town , a swimming pool, swings, a sauna, a large lounge area where sometimes a live band plays jazz, a small sweet shop, and lots of play areas for different kinds of play - from bondage to S&M to doctoring. There are professionals working here from time to time, so sometimes you'll see a person hanging from the ceiling in bondage. There is a strict fetish dress code and photos are strictly forbidden at "Kit Kat". (jm)

Many consider the "Lab.Oratory" to be the hardest sex club in town.

Lab.Oratory

Photos are strictly forbidden not only at "Kit Kat" and "Berghain", Berlin's most famous Techno club, but also at "Lab.Oratory", which is housed in the same building as "Berghain". The "Lab" is considered by many to be the roughest sex and fetish club in the city. It is usually only open to men, but on a few evenings other sexes are also welcome - when exactly, is announced on the website. Off-beat fetish parties take place at the weekend, and the calendar of events tells you exactly which ones are currently planned. Parties for clothing fetishes like rubber, leather, sportswear, workwear, or suit and tie alternate with piss parties and fisting nights. So it's worth checking out the website before you visit to catch the party that best suits your needs! (jm)

Club Culture Houze

The "Club Culture Houze" is housed in an old building on the edge of Görlitzer Park in Kreuzberg. It has a beautiful façade and is also completely inconspicuous. And it certainly has a lot going for it. On two floors, the 'Club Culture Houze' provides one playground after the next, well-equipped with toys for fetish fans. They meet at events like the 'Salon Zoe' party with a focus on BDSM, at Puppy evenings, at sports and underwear parties, and at Fist evenings. Unlike many other sex clubs and parties, the 'Club Culture Houze' occasionally organises evenings for FLINTA*s. Details can be found on the website. (jv)

Meeting place for fetish fans: The counter of the "Böse Buben" in Schöneberg.

Bösen Buben

The "Bösen Buben" (the Bad Boys) club specialises in BDSM in its many forms. Founded by and for spankers, spanking and SM are still the main focus of attention. There are also plenty of opportunities for this in the club's variously equipped and recently renovated premises in Schöneberg. The programme also offers a lot of variety beyond this core element - on some evenings, everything revolves around fisting at "Bösen Buben", while other times the focus is on the most prolonged blowjob possible at the "Cocksucker Contest". If you want to get to know the "Bösen Buben" first, you can drop by on Friday evenings. All BDSM and fetish friends come together here for "Open Friday" in a relaxed atmosphere. You can find more events and all the details, including the respective dress codes, on the website. (jm)

Quälgeist is one of the best-known fetish clubs in Berlin.

Quälgeist

The ‘Quälgeist’ club is one of the favourite clubs for many fetish lovers in Berlin. The club used to be located on Mehringdamm in Kreuzberg, but has since relocated to Mariendorf, bringing fetish life to this district just outside the city centre. The big advantage is that guests now have around 300 square metres of space at their disposal, equipped with slings, St. Andrew's cross, racks, and everything else their hearts might desire. 'Quälgeist' is distinguished by its extremely varied programme. In addition to the routinely held S&M Tuesdays, there are bondage evenings, dates for impact play and age play, or meetings of clothing fetishists, for example those who fetishize work and farm wear. Although ‘Quälgeist’ is predominantly aimed at gay men, there are also several dates that are earmarked for other genders and sexual orientations. (ps)
