Pride Milan 2025 – We will be there!
Pride is never just a party. It’s a political act. It’s the moment when our identities become visible, when queer bodies take up space, when our differences unite into a collective voice.
And this year, for the first time ever, Italy’s leading fetish and kinky clubs will march together as one at the Milan Pride 2025 parade.
@leatherfetishmilano, @leatherfriendsitalia, @theitalianpuppy, and @leatherclubroma will join forces on June 28, bringing to the streets the vibrant, proud, and self-determined face of Italy’s fetish scene.
This joint presence is more than a parade. It’s the result of years of community building, collaboration across regions, and the shared desire to show up – proudly – as an essential part of the broader LGBTQIAPK+ movement.
For too long, kinky identities have been pushed to the margins: silenced, stigmatized, told they were “too much” for Pride.
But we are Pride. We always have been. From the resistance in leather bars at Stonewall to the early marches where harnesses, leather, and latex became symbols of liberation.
Why are we here?
We are here to reclaim a space that is ours.
We are here for those who found in the kinky community a safe haven, a chosen family, a language of love and desire that deserves to be seen.
We are here for everyone who never felt represented by mainstream narratives, but who learned to shine through their authenticity.
Where to find us?
Join us at 3:00 PM, under the porticoes at the corner of Via Vittor Pisani and Via Felice Casati.
That will be our meeting point – a space to connect, regroup, and march together.
No dress code required. No explanations needed.
Come as you are: in leather, in latex, in rubber, or just in jeans.
Come with your puppy hood or your curiosity.
Come if you’re already part of the scene, or just want to walk alongside those fighting for the freedom to desire.
Why march together?
Because when we march together, we become visible.
When we show up, we become stronger.
When we take to the streets with our bodies, our gear, our hoods and harnesses, we are declaring to the world:
“This too is love. This too is pride. This too belongs in our community.”
Join us
Meet the network of clubs working every day to promote kink and fetish culture across Italy: through parties, national titles, social events, and mutual support.
Behind every club are people caring for each other, building real connections, and fighting stigma and isolation.
Join us. Don’t let our part of the LGBTQIA+ family go unseen.
Let’s show up, speak out, dance, and walk – together.
Gear up. Play proud. Stand out.
Because every harness is a flag.
Every step in the parade is a statement.
Every connection we make is a spark for change.
See you in the streets. Milan. June 28.
With pride, with visibility, with community.
