When the spectacular talents of vaudeville collaborate with the mysterious world of kink and fetish ... therein lies the Bondage Ball!

Prepare yourself for an event so inclusive and spectacular that it will be a veritable Noah's Ark for the arts, performances, music, and fetish! Join our incredible lineup of talented individuals as we unite to raise money for Breast Cancer Research and help spread breast cancer awareness!!!

The Bondage Ball was also created to enlighten and inspire. To unburden yourself and give us a chance to experience one another in our most powerful and passionate of forms. To learn and grow with each other whilst sharing our desires, knowledge, and experience in a safe, welcoming environment amongst like-minded souls.

★Our online event fundraiser link will be posted as soon as it's ready!★

The goal is to raise enough money for the event prior to August 19th so that 100% of the door proceeds and any excess raised during our IndieGoGo campaign can be donated. With the generosity of several individuals in our caring, kinky community we reached our goal the first year and we know we can do it again! Unfortunately, our charity of choice has reached out to us and expressed that they do not want to be publicly recognized as the beneficiary for funds raised at this event due to its strong nature and adult content. We feel that this is their right and in no way should deter us from continuing to support them as the cure is what is most important and that the fear of losing other, possibly larger contributions due to being related to our event is a very realistic one and an outcome we do not wish to incur.
BUT this charity is the only major breast cancer research oriented organization that we could find in America that does NOT conduct inhumane animal testing for it's results!
