A global community, growing fast
An engaged, international, adult audience that actively seeks out kink culture — and the brands that speak to it. Organic search traffic nearly quadrupled year over year: this audience grows on its own momentum.

Your brand, everywhere it counts
Sponsorship here isn’t a logo lost on a poster. Each brand gets its own dedicated on-screen slide, announced live from the stage, plus much more. One of the strongest spaces is the sponsor trailer: depending on the selected category brand spots can appear before the projections across screening sessions, venues, countries and cities. The proposal can also include photocall presence, product placement, showroom space, try stations, dedicated activities and other sponsor formats built around the brand.
Every physical placement is amplified digitally: the audience photographs the photocall, films the stage and shares it — your logo travels with the festival’s 1M+ organic views.
Where your brand will be
Sponsor visibility is built across the real festival spaces: screening rooms, Awards Night, social areas, online extension and audience touchpoints where people actually stop, watch, photograph and interact.
The «SPONSORS BDSM FILM FEST 2026» slide listing all 9 sponsor logos was projected on the main screen and individually announced from the stage. Each brand received either a live shout-out when no representative was present, or an invitation on-stage when the brand was present — not just a shared logo strip. Sponsor visibility also appeared in the exhibition area, on the official photocall backdrop where attendees took photos throughout the event, and through scripted presentation moments designed to create product placement opportunities.
