Meet & Greet Kickoff Party | July 24

Vancouver Fetish Weekend kicks off next Thursday with a FREE party, to bring together kink scene regulars, kink newbies, VFW guests, performers, models, artists, designers, festival staff and all our local and international fetish friends together for a relaxed night with cold drinks & dark sounds, in a relaxed neighbourhood LGBTQ+ club atmosphere complete with local DJs Vixen Von Flex & Skylar Love!

There is NO cover and NO dress code – though dressing up fetish / latex is always appreciated and many people do 😉 All are welcome!

Please note, there is an amazing outdoor back patio but it closes at 10 PM – get there *early* and hang out in the beautiful Vancouver sunshine before the party moves inside!

This party does fill up FAST! If we hit capacity (and we often do!), there may be a lineup and wait to get in. Best to arrive early and not miss any of the great social vibe inside!

For anyone who bought weekend passes online, we will be offering an advance pickup option, so you can have be ready to go and get in quick on the rest of the major weekend events!

HUGE UPDATE! NEW VENUE + BOTTLE SERVICE + VIP BOOTH OPTIONS + MORE CRUISE TICKETS!

Posted by on Jul 10, 2025 in News | 0 comments

HUGE UPDATE!  NEW VENUE + BOTTLE SERVICE + VIP BOOTH OPTIONS + MORE CRUISE TICKETS!

NEW VENUE!

That’s right!  For the first time in quite a few years, we are shifting venues for the main event of Vancouver Fetish Weekend!  The 11 Year Anniversary Fetish Ball on Saturday July 26 will be held at AURUM EVENT CENTRE, a state of the art special event facility right in the heart of False Creek!  For those who have been attending VFW for some time – this is actually the venue we were at, before the current one!   So we are returning to our previous venue!  However, it now has new owners, has been massively renovated, and has been renamed.  It was previously named ENSO, and prior to that, was named Harbour Event Center during the time we were there, before HEC moved their name to the much bigger nearby space it now occupies.  For those who have been in Vancouver a LONG time, this venue used to be known as THE RAGE back in the day!

The venue fits our massive kinky party PERFECTLY, with a capacity of approximately 1,000 new floors, a completely new layout to the main room with hugely expanded sight lines and massive new lighting and visuals installations.  When we moved away from it – they were right in the middle of renovations and changing of ownership.  Now that this is all complete, we are thrilled to be returning to the finished product!  Nothing more exciting than a new playspace for our international fetish community!

You can check out a video of the renos and the new look here :

BOTTLE SERVICE & VIP BOOTH BOOKING

There are several booths available for booking, comfortably seating and giving a home base for 8-10 people, right in the main area of all the action!  To inquire about booking one of the booths, send an email to :

info@ensovancouver.com

There is only a very limited number of booths and they will go FAST, so drop the venue an email ASAP if you are interested!

MORE CRUISE TICKETS HAVE OPENED UP!

For everyone who has been asking about tickets to the VIP Fetish Cruise, one of the sought after and in demand parties on the global kink circuit, we are happy to say there are now more available!  Join 300+ kinksters out on the open waves and get your freak on in the sunshine!  The cruise is packed with 2+ floors decked out with full bar service, padded BDSM and rope play areas, rooftop area with 360 degree open air views, pole dance shows, DJs Evilyn13 and Davide throwing down the fattest of beats to get your daylight dance party on, and much more!

The VIP Fetish Cruise is only available as part of a full weekend pass, and is always absolutely jam packed with a crew of international pervy partiers who are absolutely in it to win it, along with all our festival performers and staff along for the ride rubbing shoulders as well!

IF YOU HAVE ALREADY BOUGHT A NON-CRUISE WEEKEND PASS AND YOU WANT TO UPGRADE …

No problem!  Just scoop up a cruise pass ASAP if you see one available, and then we can refund your prior non-cruise pass.  You will just need to log in to the Eventbrite website with the email you used to purchase the previous pass, and then once logged in, you can look up your upcoming ticket orders, select the ones you want to manage, and then you can send in a refund request.  Once that happens and the refund request comes in through the website directly, we can authorize and put through your refund very quickly!

SEE YOU AT VFW!  IT’S ALMOST TIME FOR THE KINKIEST WEEKEND OF THE YEAR!

MODEL CALLOUT

Interested in walking the runway at Vancouver Fetish Weekend 2025?  We have a very select few spots open for applicants, who would be matched up to existing couture designs by Kurage Latex.  Serious inquiries only!  To apply, send an email to :

evilyn13news@gmail.com

Please include the following information :

• HEIGHT / BUST / WAIST / HIPS (in centimeters)
• Whether or not you would be willing to wear a hood or mask
• Whether or not you have any previous fashion show experience

• Instagram or website link
• At least one photo

Applicants must be flexible with their time across the weekend of July 24-28, to potentially meet up with the designer beforehand for a fitting, to come in during the day of July 26 for rehearsals, and spend much of July 26 backstage getting ready for the show.  Applicants receive a staff pass to the entire weekend, so if you have already purchased tickets, and you apply and are selected, your prior tickets will be refunded.

Due to the quantity of applicants and emails, we can only reply directly to applicants whose measurements match up, and who the designer confirms.

CHANGED PLANS? CANCEL YOUR ROOM ASAP!

Posted by on Jun 5, 2025 in News | 0 comments

CHANGED PLANS?  CANCEL YOUR ROOM ASAP!

Have a hotel room booked for Vancouver Fetish Weekend 2025, but your plans have changed? Cancel it ASAP so another kink traveller can use the discount on the room! Our advance booking discount ends June 9!  So if you cancel before that, and leave enough time for someone else to grab it by June 9, they will still be able to take advantage of our group discount and save a significant amount on the room! Help out your kink community!

You do still have time after June 9 and before the event weekend to cancel your room and still get a full refund, but if you cancel after June 9, the room is released back at FULL MARKET RATE, which can easily be $200+ more than our discounted group block!

The host hotel is in fact 100% sold out overall for the Saturday night of VFW, with only one or two rooms remaining on the shoulder nights only, so cancelling your room early might make the difference between another traveller being able to come or not due to accommodations in the city being so scarce in our spectacular summer months!
