a night dedicated strictly to the scene. No spectators. No half-measures.
Just for the night we’re heavily encouraging everyone to bring back the hanky code! If you came to our Halloween party last year this is going to be a lot like that! We will be at Wolfe & Porter at 8:00PM in Raleigh and YES fetish gear is required for entry. Grab your tickets before they sell out again!
“But I’m not a HUGE kinkster. Can I still come?”
As long as you meet the dress code you’re in baby. Come listen to some killer music and hang out for a night.

The Code:
Wondering what we mean by “Hanky Code”? Check out the information HERE put together by our local kink historian Excelsior Alpha. A digital guide can be found below for all ticket holders ahead of time so you can arrive prepared to signal your interests. When you get a ticket you will have the option of tacking on the purchase of an optional hanky for convenience.
“The Hanky Code, also known as "flagging," emerged in the 1970s within gay subcultures in New York and San Francisco as a discreet way to signal sexual preferences in crowded bars and public spaces. By wearing a colored handkerchief in a specific back pocket men could communicate desires non-verbally, bypassing the need for explicit conversation in a climate where such expression was often criminalized or unsafe.”

What to Expect
We’ve got two incredible community members playing music all night. DJ 4Play and Pup Tronix will be blessing our ears with the music we want.
Music
As silly as it sounds I’m personally passionate about a bag check at bigger kink events. Kind of a requirement in my opinion. Along with each ticket people will be given a tote bag corresponding to a number that they can flll with whatever they want. It will be kept in a safe area and you can come back at any time to fiddle with stuff or head out.

Late Night Food
Of course we're going to have food! There will be an awesome food truck at the event for the first few hours. More details to come, but expect a food truck and some great options.
OH YOU GOT QUESTIONS?

The most basic explanation if you show up wearing only standard street clothes, you will be turned away. With or without a ticket. At least wear a harness or a leather hat (Shout out to Mr. RTRoper). Is what your wearing unreasonably slutty? perfect, you’re in. Is what you’re wearing something that would stick out like a sore thumb on a Tuesday afternoon in the park? you’re probably good. Wear your leather/rubber/neoprene/metal/whatever as long as it isn’t a t-shirt and shorts combo.
-
No. As much as I would love that, there are just a few too many problems that frankly would make the time a little too complicated. We don’t want to have insurance waivers/illegal activities so you can do all of that either before (at your local chile’s) or after (at your local waffle house). But keep your junk covered and leave the whips at home for just this night.

Don't worry about it! you can purchase one along with your ticket for a couple bucks and the money will go to supporting other kink events around the triangle.
-
Go ahead, I don't care. Just be prepared to be popular with a lot of people.
-
Maybe! but don't be creepy about it. Hankys, clothing, or lack thereof do not equate to consent.
-
I mean I guess. The shortened list is honestly just for people to be on the same page with a few very popular kinks. If you want to go off script do so at the your own risk of having to explain to people.
-
Absolutely! That's like the most important part IMO. Along with each ticket people will be given a tote bag corresponding to a number that they can flll with whatever they want. It will be kept in a safe area and you can come back at any time to fiddle with stuff or head out.

I'll be honest with you. We run events on a very thin margin. Please don't think we turn a profit because we really do it for the love of "the game" (getting the community ((you)) together). Buying drinks to pay down beverage minimums, inviting friends to come with you and buy tickets, even just spreading word about the event is a massive help.

Don’t sweat it! not a problem at all. I promise no one thinks you’re lying. Besides, the hanky code is specific to…well…the hanky so just don’t flag inappropriately on that front.
