KinkFest 2025 BootySoBig Scholarship

KinkFest is pleased to offer the BootySoBig Scholarship in memory of BootySoBig. With her big heart, kind spirit and powerful masochism, Booty inspired many of us before she died on January 21, 2023. This year, KinkFest will award up to 50 registrations to community-minded kinksters in honor of Booty. Recipients must be people of color, people who experience a disability, or both.

The application has a few questions that will be reviewed by a small panel of POC and people who experience a disability. The 2025 application has closed.

Exciting News for KinkFest Attendees!

This year, we're thrilled to offer an expanded parking area specifically for those with state-authorized DMV handicap placards, or appropriate license plates. We know that in past years, demand for accessible parking has exceeded the venue's available spaces, and we're happy to provide this additional accommodation.

The lot will be staffed during the following hours:

1. Friday & Saturday: 7:00 a.m. – 3:30 p.m.
2. Sunday: 10:00 a.m. – 12:30 p.m.

During these times, only vehicles displaying the required DMV documentation will be permitted to park in this designated area.

We appreciate your cooperation in ensuring that accessible parking is available to those who need it most. See you at KinkFest!
