Coming soon: more sexually explicit content in Montreal

The Fetish Weekend is what I mean, of course!

The creator of the fest, Eric Paradis, has helped put the brakes on the closing of Café Cléo over the past two years. The least you could do is support his festival, during which adults dress like latexed manga kids with the crotch cut out of their pants. GAWD. Click here for more info (NSFW).

“Tuesday, Aug 30 to Monday, Sept 5, the Montreal Fetish Weekend returns with seven nights of kinky delights. Join hundreds of visitors, artists and designers, who attend from all over the world, for a non-stop fetish fantasy holiday, where Montreal’s legendary hospitality allows you to have the time of your life.”
