VFW2024 FETISH CRUISE GALLERY by JONNY RAY!

Click through to see the first official gallery from the 2024 edition of the Vancouver Fetish Cruise! Always one of the absolute highlights of the entire weekend, it is, as far as we know, the only day time summer fetish festival cruise in North America featuring all the bells and whistles to satisfy any kinkster’s wet dream … three floors of full bar service, world-class DJs and rooftop deck dance party with 360 degree views of the spectacular coastline and ocean, rooftop outdoor shibari, BDSM play furniture and pole dance shows, an entire indoor level kitted out with kink play areas of all types, an international crowd that is absolutely in it to win it, and a vibe that is unmatched anywhere else, as we all cap off every year with a dance and play party literally into the sunset. A huge thank you to everyone who was in attendance this year!

Tickets and hotel bookings activate shortly for VFW2025 – keep your ears and eyes peeled for announcements, as they are right around the corner, and both the hotel and the cruise sell out every year!

VFW2024 FIRST LOOKS!

Here’s some first looks from Vancouver Fetish Weekend 2024, courtesy of Frankie Panky Photography!

CLICK THROUGH to see the full gallery!

The full galleries won’t be read for some time yet, as we are very meticulous with making sure every photo only features willing participants, to preserve everyone’s anonymity other than the intended subjects of the photos – this takes time! Plus we always put a little extra effort into the preparation of every photo, as we want everyone’s photos from VFW to be their favourite photos ever!

HUGE THANK YOU to all our local Vancouver kink community who represented and then some, and to all the fetish travellers who came from far flung corners of the world to be with us! Every year our bonds grow stronger, and new friendships and connections get formed, which is always the #1 takeaway we try to foster for everyone who takes part The level of creative outfits, self-expression and kink play was OFF THE CHARTS this year!

HUGE THANK YOU to our event and venue staff and set up volunteers, who all worked tirelessly behind the scenes to make each gathering a seamless experience for all in attendance, despite the inevitable 911 emergencies and last minute pivots needed to keep everything moving forward no matter what unexpected hurdles get thrown at us! All the events were a feast for the senses, in no small part due to the work of our tech production team! Believe us when we say, all the venues we use do not normally look like that, and every year we get told by the venue staff – “This is the best the venue has ever looked!” We bring out ALL the bells and whistles to create the best possible environment for our VFW attendees to cut loose in!

HUGE THANK YOU to our admissions and dress code team, and back stage manager, who kept everything on track and flowing smoothly!

HUGE THANK to all our performers and go-go dancers who turned the heat UP and got our hearts racing!

HUGE THANK to our designers and models who turned it OUT on the runway with some truly inspirational looks and moments!

HUGE THANK YOU to all our DJs who kept the pulse of each party pounding!

HUGE THANK YOU to all our kink play gear providers, host dominatrixes and dommes, and consent & vibe monitor team, who both set up all the areas for everyone to unleash their pervy play in public, but also for keeping everything safe, sane and consensual all the way through!

HUGE THANK YOU to our photo and video team who captured it all on film and who will be spending many, MANY hours turning those digital information banks into viewable photo galleries and video highlights for us all to enjoy!

Can’t wait to do it all over again in 2025!

LONG LOST GALLERY FROM VFW2022!

Just in time to start the official final month countdown to Vancouver Fetish Weekend 2024, here’s a long lost gallery from 2022 that has finally surfaced!  Good things are worth waiting for, but we’ll be the first to admit the wait on this one was a little extra ridiculous!  None the less, THIS GALLERY IS RED HOT, covering the main Friday & Saturday nights, and the Fetish Walk, which just happened to meet up on the rainbow crosswalk in the West End with the Vancouver Rubbermen!

There are so many amazing moments packed into this collection of images – everyone looked INCREDIBLE at our sci-fi theme ball on the opening night, and everyone’s outfits at the main event Saturday were completely mind-blowing.  Plus you can see the energy and happiness from all the kinksters having the time of their lives beaming out!  All our performers had standout moments, featuring Rubberdoll, Madam Lola, Melody Mangler, PM, Natasha Nebula, Val Vampyre, and even a main stage appearance by legendary Vancouver drag troupe THE BRATPACK!  Our two featured designers BLACKLICKORISH LATEX and JANE DOE LATEX and all their incredible models absolutely dazzled the runway … we expect to see a ton of people sharing these photos far and wide!
