Leave your modesty at the door and prepare to bare at a pre-Fourth of July bash where flying your fetish flag is everything. The Bondage Ball is one of L.A.’s biggest and most decadent dance parties for the S&M and sex-positive goth and industrial set. Some of the city’s wildest promoters are coming together for the sextravaganza this year too, including LA Fashion & Fetish Ball, Batcave, Soft Leather, Dark Circus, Dungeon, Perversion, Helter Skelter, and Fetish Apocalypse. Plus, there’ll be three fashion shows featuring the ultimate in lusty latex by recent  cover subject Venus Prototype and her Bizarre Fetish Couture, along with Demask DTLA and Dollskin Designs. DJs from aforementioned clubs will dominate the dance floor and eye candy will include go-go gals and guys, dungeon equipment enhanced “play zones,” vampy visuals, photo booth, stage shows and more.

Belasco Theater, 1050 S. Hill St., downtown; Wed., July 5, 9:30 p.m.-2:30 a.m.; $22.50 (21+). bondageball.com.
