What's special about the Obscene trade fair in Karlsruhe?
The Obscene has a big selection of exhibitors and combines many scenes/subcultures. Alternative/black scene, BDSM, fetish and kinky/hedonism – everyone will find what they are looking for.
There is also an extensive workshop program. Among other things, FluffyQueenie – plus-size latex model, content creator and long-standing member of the Vivishine family – gives her popular annual beginners’ workshop “Latex for every body”, so that everyone can try out the material, regardless of whether they are short, tall, thick or thin.
Guests can also enjoy shows and choose between many different parties after shopping.
The Obscene is more than just a trade fair and much more a weekend with acquaintances, friends, old and new faces. We are delighted to be part of it.
Inclusion is important!
FluffyQueenie has set herself the task of finding out: How diverse and inclusive is the BDSM & fetish fair Obscene in southern Germany?Do you also get something here for sizes outside the norm? Fluffy.Queenie and her co-host Rubber.Femme took a closer look at the fair.

Vivishine supports through sponsorship
Vivishine was created through our own passion for latex, with the idea of and for the fetishists/community/scene, and simply all those who simply enjoy the material.
The community, people and labels are close to our hearts. We therefore regularly support brands, designers, parties, events and trade fairs through sponsorship. The Obscene trade fair in Karlsruhe has been able to rely on Vivishine as a sponsor for many years.
Just like in 2024, the popular shopping bags were once again available for all guests in 2025. For the first time, we also had a latex polishing station – so latex-wearing guests could have their outfits polished to a shine and test the products at the same time.
