UP Underwear Party

A Saturday afternoon gathering at Powerhouse for folks who celebrate body diversity and connection. This is the kind of event where the vibe is welcoming, the crowd gets it, and you can just be yourself without pretense. Come early, stay late, and meet your people.

Every third Saturday, Beatpig brings leather, fashion, and drag together at Powerhouse with the energy the leather district does best. Hosted by Juanita MORE! and DJ Stanley Frank, expect great music, cheap drinks, gogo dancers, bondage demonstrations, and rotating photographers capturing the scene. It's the kind of party that honors Powerhouse's legacy while keeping things genuinely fun and unapologetic.

Sunday afternoons at Powerhouse mean one thing: a packed leather bar, shirtless bodies, and the kind of raw, unapologetic vibe that defines this stretch of Folsom. Free entry means there's no barrier to showing up and soaking in the scene — whether you're a regular or checking out the legendary cruise bar for the first time.

Cocktailgate is back for another round of gloriously under-rehearsed drag chaos. Built on the principle that a few minutes of prep is plenty, this long-running Bay Area institution pairs theatrical mess with genuine artistry—hosted by the incomparable Suppositori Spelling and Florence Frightengale. Five to ten bucks gets you a front-row seat to what happens when drag queens stop overthinking and start creating.

Monday nights at Powerhouse belong to Glamamore and crew—a rotating cast of drag performers, fresh beats, and live crafting that turns the dance floor into something between a show and a party. It's the kind of night where performance and play blur together, and the energy builds as the night goes on.

San Francisco's notorious Ripe Pit night brings together pit pigs, pups, and perverts for a music-forward experience that's equal parts hedonistic and communal. Every fourth Friday at Powerhouse, the Pit Crew sets the soundtrack while the room leans into the raw, unapologetic energy the night is built for. Stank has also traveled the West Coast and beyond, proving there's a hungry audience everywhere for this particular brand of leather culture celebration.
