Kinky Carnival is for adults of all gender identities, sexual orientations, relationship configurations, races, ethnicities, body types, roles, and experience levels. Our events spotlight folks who are people of color, queer, and/or trans. We also prioritize people of these identities and experience as attendees and collaborators. We expect all attendees to honor the diversity of our communities. We will not tolerate behavior or language to the contrary at our events – particularly that which goes against the wellness of marginalized communities.

We define consent as a clear, enthusiastic, informed, freely given, ongoing, and revocable agreement for involved parties to participate in a particular act (sexual or non). We promote Risk Aware Consensual Kink (RACK) in this space and expect attendees to understand and abide by this consent framework at our events.

Accessibility means something different to everyone. Our host venue, Kuumba Juice and Coffee, is a single-floor, indoor/outdoor space. The primary entrance/exit for this event is accessible for individuals with mobility impairments, such as those using wheelchairs or walkers.

Seating is available through the venue, and reserved seating is available for those watching the show.

Both gender-neutral, single-stall restrooms have wall-mounted grab bars and accessible sinks.

Kinky Carnival is organized by Shaan Lashun, a Black queer Milwaukee boi with a decade of experience in the kink community. Find him @shaanlashun on socials.
