Sensuality
Embodiment
Culture
Respect

In all its forms, eros is a deep expression of culture. The deepest facets of who we are can be seen through the ways we look for connection and experience pleasure through our bodies.

But there isn’t just one erotic culture, there are many - some explicitly sexual, some not at all. Because of the shame and shutdown, confusion and discomfort everywhere in our society, many of us never to get to learn for us what is erotically possible.

To help you to discover and celebrate what is possible, this festival brings together a diversity of erotic cultures: exotic and familiar, queer and straight, Western and Eastern, tantric and tao, kinky and vanilla.

If you’re curious and brave, want to discover erotic cultures, practices and, above all, bring play into your life, this is for you!

Join us for two days of workshops, performances and ceremonies.

We saved a spot for you in our playground. Come and join us.
