Fetish Fair Highlights

Photos from the fifth-annual Church Street Fetish Fair

On Aug 17 the kinky and the curious came out to Toronto’s gaybourhood for the fifth annual Church Street Fetish Fair. Executive director Cam Lewis estimates that the fair, which was presented by the Church-Wellesley Village Business Improvement Area, drew some 30,000 people to the village. Offerings included live flogging and mummification demos, vendors offering all manner of pervy products and two stages of drag, dance and music.
