First time

First time at a munch?

A munch is an informal meetup at a café or bar. Here you can read how it works and what is useful to know the first time. If you are going to a party for the first time, read what to know before your first BDSM party.

What is a munch?

A munch is an informal social meetup at a café or bar for people interested in BDSM and fetish. There is no BDSM play at the meetup. Wear ordinary clothes suitable for the venue.

You decide whether to use your name or a nickname and how much you want to share about yourself. It is also fine to listen and take some time to get to know the group.

Before you come

The event page lists the time, venue, and other practical information. It also gives the reservation name or the person to ask for if you cannot find the group.

You do not need to know anyone beforehand or have experience with BDSM. You can come on your own.

When you arrive

We usually sit together at one or more tables. You can tell the event host or someone at the table that it is your first time.

There is no expectation that you share your interests or experience. You can join the conversation when and if you want to.

You decide how long to stay

You can leave when it suits you. Attending a munch does not commit you to becoming a member or attending other events.
