Cologne Pride Fetish Truck and Walking Group
Rheinfetisch, together with Folsom Europe, who are celebrating their 20th anniversary this year, will be participating in the Cologne Pride 2023 demonstration on Sunday, July 9th. The group will be led by our Fetish Truck, followed by the walking group.
We've been assigned starting number #155; Puppy Cologne is right behind us at #156. The Bears & Friends are a little further back at #187. We'd love it if as many of you as possible came in fetish outfits. That way, we'll impressively represent all facets of fetish.
Everyone is welcome in our group – whether a member of Rheinfetisch or not (yet). As things stand, 16 titleholders from all over Europe will also be participating.
We have decided not to sell the seats on the truck, but to reserve them for Rheinfetisch members, helpers, and titleholders. The seats will be raffled off immediately before the start.
The demonstration starts at 12:00; marching groups should gather at the assembly point on Mindener Straße in Cologne-Deutz from 11:00 onwards. For our group – as #155 of 224 – arriving there by 13:00 should be sufficient. Given the predicted temperatures, we recommend bringing plenty of drinks and sunscreen.
