A kick-back, have a good time, meet some hot new friends weekend for those who want to hang out, socialize, relax or party with other like-minded people in Leather, Rubber and Uniforms.

Provincetown is a gay-friendly oceanside community. Generally the weather is cool in the fall, making it ideal to wear your leather, rubber or uniform. You can feel comfortable shopping, walking the streets day or night, dining, hiking on the beach and touring the bars in your leather, rubber or uniform...and I hope you will!

Mates Leather Weekend is brought to you by Rick Conley, longtime Provincetown resident and leatherman. You can email me at

I want to thank all our sponsors, friends and past participants who have contributed to the success of Mates Leather Weekend. I'm grateful for all the new friends that I've made along the way. I take great pride in the quality of men and women that attend MLW. There is no attitude here, just folks that are down-to-earth, friendly, and nice to look at. It takes a lot of effort to put on an event like this. I hope you enjoy it.

If you are a member of a club, consider getting your members together and travel as a club event to Mates Leather Weekend in Provincetown.
