Folsom Street Events is a nonprofit organization based in the United States that plans and implements activities for the Dore Alley and Folsom Street Fairs, with a focus on coordinating the hospitality areas. Its work targets attendees and participants of these events, providing on-site hospitality services and facilitating event logistics to enhance the fair experience. Positioned within the nonprofit sector of event management and LGBT+ community-oriented programming, the organization operates in a context that combines festival planning with community outreach. Founded to support sex-positive events in San Francisco and surrounding areas, Folsom Street Events has engaged in partnerships and expansions that have included collaborations with Lavamae to offer on-site showers and hospitality provisions for houseless neighbors, signaling a broader community-serving dimension alongside its event-hosting activities. Recent developments also point to organizational growth, including new facility-related initiatives in Europe, while remaining anchored in its core mission of supporting the Folsom Street Fair and related activities in the Bay Area.
