Tickets

As queer people, we often move through life without having access, time or the headspace for communal rituals that mark change, growth, or seasonal transition. Queer Fall Rituals is an intimate, queers only, space to reclaim that. Over three days, we’ll honor the Autumn Equinox by moving through the sacred themes of abundance, death, and hibernation—mirroring the earth’s turning inward.

Each day has a specific theme:

  • Friday: Abundance through Group Play (orgy)
  • Saturday: Death through Kink Rituals (BDSM)
  • Sunday: Hibernation through creature creation and sound (cuddles)

Each day offers:
✨ Workshopping the day’s themes together – learning skills and making plans
🍲 A shared communal lunch
🎭 A playful, nourishing play party

This gathering is a space for queer, kinky bodies and queer, kinky hearts to connect, release, and prepare for the descent into winter—together

Friday, October 3rd: Abundance – a harvest bacchanal

Friday:

The first day of the weekend is all about enjoying the abundance of the harvest season. In groups, we will enjoy ourselves, each other, and all our senses. During the day Caritia and Ceci will guide you towards comfort and intimacy. After lunch, we’ll throw an orgy for all your senses.
Friday is all about exploration in bigger constellations, everything from cute cuddles and soft massages to kink play and fierce fucking.

What to bring: anything you need for an orgy: toys, a towel, rope, clothes you look hot in, your favorite lube, massage oil, mouthwash… use your imagination!

Minimum Knowledge Level: none

Schedule:

12-15.30 Group exploration and connection play
15.30-17 Shared lunch (included in the ticket)
17-21 Orgy-esque play party

Saturday, October 4th: Death through Kink Rituals

After the abundance of the harvest, we will give our all through BDSM rituals and suffering. We design our own metaphorical deaths to get ready for the dark season.
During the day, Caritia and Ceci will guide in finding enduring, slow intensity, and designing your own rites. In the play party we execute your plans and form a choir of moans, slaps, and whimpers.

What to bring: all kink toys your heart desires

Minimum Knowledge Level: none

Schedule:

12-15.30 Exploring predicament ties (no previous rope experience required), intention setting, creating kink rituals
15.30-17 Shared lunch …. (included in the ticket)

Sunday, October 5th: Hibernation of the beasts

Darkness has fallen and it’s time to get cozy. On this last day of the weekend, we’ll get ready for rest through softness and cuddles. The bears are ready to hibernate, birds are setting off to warmer climates, and the cats are having their last playful frolics.
The day will guide you towards stillness through meditation, and playfulness through letting out your inner creature. We will let go of being serious adults and explore softer ways to be in our bodies. The play party will be all about oxytocin, touch, and chill. We’ll create cozy nests and explore the darkness.

What to bring: any sensory play toys or objects: blindfolds, earplugs, headphones, leather gloves, kink toys, rope, D/s and s/m vibes, tarot

Minimum Knowledge Level: none

Schedule:
12-15.30 Guided Touch Meditation, creative sound scapes, vocalisations and creature discovery
15.30-17 Shared lunch (included in ticket)
