Key takeaways

  • Read the age on the listing. These weekends are 18+, 19+, or 21+, and they are not interchangeable.
  • Confirm the date on the organizer's site the week you travel. Hotel names are sometimes withheld until you register.
  • A conference, a one-night ball, and a campground are different buildings with different rules. Do not pack for the wrong one.
  • Presence is not consent to play, to photos, or to sex. That rule is in the myths beginners are told.
  • Weekly munches and dungeon nights are on the calendar. They are not repeated in this list.

Fall 2025 is over. As of September 25, 2026, the dates below are what the East Coast Kink Events calendar lists for October through early December. A listing is not a contract. The organizer's site wins if a date, a price, or an age limit moves. This site does not sell the tickets.

Before you book

  • Read the age on the listing. These weekends are 18+, 19+, or 21+, and they are not interchangeable.
  • Confirm the date on the organizer's site the week you travel. Hotel names are sometimes withheld until you register.
  • A conference, a one-night ball, and a campground are different buildings with different rules. Do not pack for the wrong one.
  • Presence is not consent to play, to photos, or to sex. That rule is in the myths beginners are told.
  • Weekly munches and dungeon nights are on the calendar. They are not repeated in this list.

Early October

FORNUCOPIA is a campground weekend in Darlington, Maryland, October 1 to 4, run by The Gritty Group. The listing says 21+, with meals, a cabin bed, classes, and play spaces. It also says registration closed on September 20, with a waitlist on the organizer's form. If you are not already on that list, do not drive to Darlington on the assumption that the door will take you.

Southeast Power Exchange is one day, October 3, in Clinton, South Carolina: a title contest, demos, food, and a play party at The Junction. The listing says 21+ and that it is for pairs or triads. It is not a four-day hotel takeover.

DC Fetish Ball is one night, October 11, at UltraBar in Washington. The listing calls it the 18th year, with a fashion show, DJs, and a play space, 21+, and a presale price of $60. A ball ends. It does not give you a room block or a class grid.

The October 16 weekend

Three East Coast listings land on October 16 to 18, and they are not substitutes for each other.

OhioSMART Fetish Flea is in Cleveland. The listing describes a private club, vendors, classes, and two play parties. It says shopping is free if you pre-register, and it quotes a non-member weekend price of $160. A private club can refuse a walk-up. Read the guest rule before you go.

NEPAH 2026: Pup Dex is the Northeast Pet and Handler Weekend in Philadelphia, with an IPTC feeder contest. The listing gives the venue as 254 South 12th Street and says the program is still marked coming soon. Do not invent a class schedule the organizer has not posted. Pet play at a public weekend still has the limits in the pet-play note: adults only, and a handler title is not ownership.

Rehoboth Beach Leather Weekend is October 16 to 18 at Aqua Bar and Grill in Rehoboth Beach, Delaware. The listing describes a happy hour, a harness dance, the Mr. Rehoboth Leather 2027 contest, and a Sunday beer bust. Check the age on the listing before you buy. A bar weekend is not a camp, and it is not a closed dungeon.

Late October and November

EXXXOTICA Edison is October 23 to 25 at the New Jersey Convention Center. The listing gives Friday 5pm to 11pm, Saturday 1pm to 10pm, and Sunday 1pm to 6pm, a one-day general-admission price of $49.99, and the Courtyard Woodbridge as the official hotel. This is a public adult expo. It is not a negotiated play party. Treat the hall as public, assume phones exist, and do not confuse a vendor floor with a dungeon that has a monitor.

KinkyCon Wicked Weekend is November 13 to 15 at the DoubleTree in Nashua, New Hampshire. The listing says 18+, a live class grid, vendors, and a Saturday play party, with tickets on sale since September 6. A named hotel is easier to plan than a weekend that hides the building until you pay. You still need the house rules for the party, not just the room key.

Grand Strand Affair is November 19 to 22 in Myrtle Beach, at The Ellie. The listing says 19+, more than 40 classes, three play spaces, and a weekend price of $175. It also says this is not a hotel takeover. Book sleep on purpose. Do not assume the play venue and your bed are the same building.

Early December

Naughty Noel is December 3 to 6 in Gettysburg, Pennsylvania, a Studio 58 two-hotel weekend. The listing says 18+, a regular price of $210, and a VIP bundle of $355, with hotel names released after you register. Pay only if you can accept booking a room you cannot see yet, and recheck the organizer's site. The winter weekends after this one are in the winter list.

What a weekend costs besides the ticket

A class grid is not a plan to take every class. Pick one skill you do not already have, and leave the rest. Stacking impact, rope, and a late party is how people get hurt on Sunday, which is the limit in the intermediate breast-play article and it applies outside breast play too. If the event offers fire, suspension, or breath play, those are instructor-level. This library does not teach them, and a party floor is not the class.

Sleep and a ride are part of the ticket. Hotel play runs late. The next-day drop is described in sub drop, top drop, and event drop. If you will not be fit to drive, arrange the ride before you drink or play, not at 3am in the lobby.

If you photograph explicit conduct, federal record-keeping may apply to you. That is the 2257 article, and a house photography rule does not replace it. If the listing bans phones, follow the ban. Staff, presenters, and monitors are working. Their job is not a yes to a scene.
