Wicked Munch

JOIN US FOR OUR FIRST MUNCH!

Nervous about Leather and Lace? Curious but unsure how to jump in? Or maybe you just love grilled cheese and good company. Whatever your reason, our first-ever pre-party Munch is made for you. This casual social evening provides a gentle and welcoming space for new and returning community members to meet, connect, and learn more about our values before stepping into a higher-energy event. We’ll be joined by a grilled cheese truck to keep things cozy. Expect low-pressure social games, casual chats, and the kind of connection that makes everything feel a little more grounded.

Doors open at 6:30pm. $5 donation entry to our mutual aid program!

WHAT IS A MUNCH?

A Munch is a casual social gathering of individuals who are interested in kink, BDSM, or alternative lifestyles. These events typically take place in public settings such as restaurants, coffee shops, or bars but this one happens at Wicked Eden! The primary purpose of a Munch is to provide a safe and welcoming space for like-minded individuals to meet, socialize, and build community.

WHO’S THIS EVENT FOR?

Anyone who wants to meet kink-positive people in a casual social setting, eat grilled cheese, and make connections. You do not need to be a member to attend. Attendees must be 21+ to attend.
