About Mates

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.

Mates Leather Weekend is brought to you by Rick Conley, longtime Provincetown resident and leatherman. I want to thank all MLW 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.

- Rick Conley

Provincetown

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!

What They Are Saying

I ATTENDED MLW FOR MY FIRST TIME IN 2015. I WAS WELCOMED AND INCLUDED IN ACTIVITIES.....THAT MADE ME FEEL A PART OF THE COMMUNITY AND LESS OF A FIRST TIMER.  I HAD A GREAT TIME, I ALREADY REGISTERED FOR THE 2016 EVENT AND HOTEL. LOOK FORWARD TO SEEING YOU ALL IN A FEW MONTHS

Tony | West Haverstraw NY

My husband and I had such a great time at our first Mates this year. We met quite a few real friendly guys as well as saw a lot of friends we haven’t seen in some time. Overall, we had such a good time we’ll definitely be back next year.

Michael | West Haven, CT

This was my first Mates Leather weekend and I had a blast! You have no idea what a boost it was - and everyone was so friendly. Thanks again. I will be booking holidays for next year - that's for sure.

Dan | Ontario

I'm just writing to say what a really great time my boyfriend, Mike & I had. Thanks so much for going to all that trouble to put together such an amazing weekend. You guys do an incredible job. I had so much fucking fun! I can't wait for next year.
