Who we are

Fetish Social Padua is the group dedicated to fetish and kink culture in its various expressions (leather, rubber, puppy, BDSM and much more).
It was born from a collaboration with Leather Friends Milano and from the desire to create moments of socialising and discussion around conscious play within the LGBTQIA+ and fetish community, with an open, inclusive and prejudice-free outlook.

Where and when

We organize meetings throughout the year in Padua, at the Arcigay Tralaltro premises (Corso Giuseppe Garibaldi 41) or at dedicated venues.
Each session addresses a different theme related to fetish culture, with moments of dialogue, workshops and conviviality.

Our mission

Promoting fetish culture as an integral part of the LGBTQIA+ community.

We want to build safe and conscious spaces, where anyone can approach the fetish world without stereotypes, with curiosity, respect and a sense of community.
At our meetings we talk about bodies, desires, pleasure, the history of the kink movement, and safe and conscious practices. We do this by weaving together information, socialising and celebratory moments, always with attention to consent and people's wellbeing.

What you will find

🔹 Fetish aperitif socials & convivial moments
🔹 Themed workshops and talks with guest speakers
🔹 Discussion spaces between the fetish and LGBTQIA+ communities
🔹 Networking opportunities with local fetish organisations

Because fetish culture is also history, community and liberation.
Fetish Social Padua is the right place if you want to meet other people who share your passions, if you are curious to explore, or if you are simply looking for an inclusive and respectful space in which to live your identity.

Whatever your kinks, or if you are simply approaching these topics for the first time: there is a place here for you too.
