“Reading Fetish Social” is a Kink & Fetish SFW 18+ social event. It aims to promote networking and provide a safe space and networking for kinksters and fetishists, especially those in the LGBTQIA+ community. This is a trial event for future socials; if we gain enough interest and attendance, we will run more socials.
The event runs for 6 hours from 12-6 PM at the Bla Bla in Reading, and no pre-booking required first come, first serve.
Where
This is event will be in Reading at The Bla Bla. The venue is a grade listed building and has single-step access, with a ramp available needed (please get in touch with us if needed). Unfortunately, due to the age of the building does not have gender-neutral or accessible toilets, but people are welcome to use the toilet, which they feel affirming.

When in conversation, ensure everyone is consenting to a conversation. If you are uncomfortable with a discussion state and make the person/people aware, let an admin know if there is an issue. We emphasise that this is a safe, sex-positive space, therefore conversations around sexual intercourse, consensual BDSM and interactions of an intimate nature maybe be spoken about.

• Communication of boundaries, such as “leave me alone,” “go away,” or “I’m not discussing this with you.”
• Communicating in a “tone” you do not find congenial.
• Criticism of offensive racist, sexist, cissexist, or otherwise oppressive behaviour or assumptions.
