GETTYSBURG, Pa.—The Naughty Gras hotel takeover, by Studio 58 Events, opens this week for four days of kink, BDSM classes, entertainment and Mardi Gras-themed fun. The show officially opens Thursday, March 26, at 9 a.m., and continues until Sunday, March 29, at 11 a.m.
Naughty Gras is a full hotel takeover held in Gettysburg, Pennsylvania. Studio 58 Events transforms two adjacent hotels into a clothing-optional play zone for consenting adults. The pool areas are decorated in honor of Bourbon Street and the French Quarter of “the Big Easy.” There are dedicated dungeon areas open night and day, plus an outdoor courtyard with a cigar lounge. Throughout the weekend, there are games, speed dating and dancing, along with BDSM socials offering newbies a "taste" of kink, like bondage, flogging, electro play and more.
Regular guests often decorate poolside rooms and balconies with Mardi Gras themes. Many of the guests open their rooms for parties with beverages and snacks. Tossing beads from the balconies is encouraged. Play is allowed anytime through official hours.
"Even though we officially open on Thursday, our staff will already be decorating on Wednesday and we have an early bird munch Wednesday evening," said J.P., co-founder and owner of Studio 58 Events. "Rooms at the host hotels sold out right away, but we have a deal with a third hotel nearby with three-night packages and add-on nights available. RV parking at the host hotels is available for a fee. We've also got upgrades like the Friday BBQ and Masquerade Dinner Party."
This year’s event schedule includes the Carnival of Sins interactive taster, kinky karaoke, bar trivia night, the Springtime PJ Party With Stuffies, kinky crafting, fire-cupping, mummification, and kinky first aid, as well as seminars like “Diversity of Primal Play,” “Mean Machine: Sharps 301” and “Tasting Desires: Food Play.” For newbies, there are also classes on rope bondage, flogging, spanking and burlesque.
"What a great education line-up," said kinky educator Touchdeep. "Heartbound and I are so excited about presenting our classes, bare-handed scenes, sensory deprivation class and our four-hour massage intensive."
Attendees shopping for sensual adventure can explore the vendor room, providing a selection of bondage gear, fetish clothing, sex toys and much more. The Dungeon Store confirmed it will attend with floggers, books, paddles, wax play kits and more.
"We love hotel takeovers by Studio 58 Events, and Naughty Gras is one of our favorites," said Anne Bryne, founder and co-owner of The Dungeon Store. "We've got a large selection of hand-crafted items for the dungeon, along with edge play toys. Don't forget to ask for a demonstration of our electro play gear and violet wand accessories."
The show is for adults only, 18-years-old and over. Day passes are available. Details on the event location are available upon show registration.
