Kink Fest Rotterdam

Kink Fest comes to the Netherlands for the first time on Friday 16 October 2026, at Now&Wow in Rotterdam. The organiser expects around a thousand people, all in kink dress code.

The centrepiece is the Kinky Museum, live: dedicated areas across the venue for different kinks, each with people who practise them showing, interacting and answering questions, with furniture and play exhibits supplied by BDSM Architecture. Around it run a Berlin techno main stage, performances through the night, social games — a matching card game, kinky tasks, find-a-partner, naked Twister — a dating and friending area, and a cuddle area.

No start time is published: the organiser says the programme is updated continuously and emailed weekly to the address tickets were bought with. No price is published on the festival's own page either.

The brand publishes its rules on every event page and they are strict: events are 21 and over; consent is required before touching or even watching, and a 'maybe' or a silence counts as a no; no single people in the darkroom; and absolutely no photography or video — phones are left in the cloakroom, so bring cash or a card for the bar.
