Friction (in February)

Grip the moment at Friction, a pop-up style event focused on bondage, kink, connection, sensuality, and joy. Hosts @MxBliss (of Jiffy Kink and Studio Bound) & @ShayBlondie (of BENT and Twisted Windows) invite you to tie on the rotunda suspension rigs, roll around in the floorplay area, and explore the intimate corners of our fabulous East Bay venue with a fully equipped dungeon.

At the Friction play party, you can expect icebreakers, performances, and plenty of nooks to play, socialize, or get it on.

The venue is in Oakland and we will send the address to ticket holders the day before the event.
