The TKF is an intersectional safe space!  We have a zero no hate policy and welcome all humans, regardless of what they look like, what they identify with and what weird fetish they are into.  It’s a KINK FESTIVAL people!  And we embrace this fully and fundamentally!

As the TKF is a kink festival, nearly every event has a fetish dress code.   Unless otherwise specified please research and explore dress code options.   Traditional fetish dress code often encompasses

• Leather

• Latex

• Lingerie

• Uniforms*

• Slutty Gothic 

• Slutty Jock

• Slutty cosplay

• Slutty festival wear

• Furry

• Littles & Babies

*NOTE:  ALL of our events prohibit any outward fascist imagery or anything that promotes hate. 

Informed, non-coerced consent for all things involving intimate touch or engagement.  This also includes creeping and harassment on our dance floors.  Consent for us is that enthusiastic permission must be granted for…

• Touching of any kind

• Soliciting kink scenes and play space activity

• Excessive or unreciprocated flirting

• Gratuitous objectification and/or space invasion (creeping). 

They are also risk aware spaces. All of our play facilities at official TKF events are monitored by trained harm reduction staff.   Playing with our dungeon facilities comes with a risk aware caveat, meaning all individual play is done at the users own risk.

Red is the official safe word for all our spaces. Please be aware that dungeon monitors are listening and WILL step in to assist if the word RED is called.  All play must stop while our dungeon monitors help negotiate a pause or come down. 

Please share the dungeon furnishings and facilities and make sure they are left better than you found them.  This includes full sanitization before and after use.  Please do not hog equipment and cause our DMs to have to intervene. 

Do not invade other people’s scenes or creep into their play bubble.  Please respect any personal play items belonging to other patrons.  Note that Playground Kink will be operating their famous “Toy Library” at the Grand Fetish Ball. 

Image capturing is strictly controlled at the Grand Fetish Ball and the Nuit Rauch play party.   There will be designated “selfie stations” at these events otherwise the only photography / videography permitted will be by our sanctioned professional photographers. 

Many of our venues share space with residential neighbors.  Please try to respect the community and avoid excessive outdoor noise an activity outside of our venues.

Let us be clear.  We reserve the right to remove any persons who are in violation of our guidelines or pose a threat to the health and well-being of our events.

For a more comprehensive outline of rules that our patrons subscribe to, the good folks at Playground Kink have a detailed “playbook” that covers rules and questions around how we will be approaching our events!   You can read those rules here.
