Produced by [Mistress Viola] (https://www.mistressviola.com/), 50 Shades of STFU is a kinky play party and social event for femdoms and femme tops and the individuals who serve and worship them. We have been home at Sanctuary Club downtown since 2017.This month to combat the gloomy long winter blues, let’s keep it HOT and bring those summer vibes to Sanctuary. It’s summer somewhere, so strip down to your neon hot pants, hot pink bikinis, speedos, summer dresses, maybe don some scuba gear or wetsuits (you rubber fetishists, I am talking to you!), Crocodile Dundee cosplay, wear some pool floaties, dress like a jellyfish, give us some WET looks! As usual the themes are always just inspiration and not required, but the dress code (outlined below) is always mandatory.
This months 10% of proceeds donations goes to mutual aid requests direct to community members in need. This month is Black History Month! We work to feature and highlight Black performers and kinky community members throughout the year, and donate a percentage of proceeds to equitable and anti-racist causes.
What happens at this infamous event?
We aim to create an inclusive space for LGBTQ, pansexual, queer, or straight submissives and their femme tops. If you’re a cis male dom this is really not the event for you. However, if you’re switchy and/or abide by the dress code you are welcome to join us!
Tastings run from 8:30 to 9:30 when we break for a performance moment and then there’s another tastings block from 10:30-11:30. Doors at 8pm and spots for tastings do fill quickly; they are first come first serve and very limited. Lately they’ve been filling up in under an hour after doors!
Playspaces, St. Andrews cross, semi-private areas, spanking benches, and hard points are available.
$20 cash/$22 CC
NOTE: End time is now 1am. The club may stay open longer depending on the crowd, but this is determined by the club.

DRESS CODE:
No effort, no entry!
The overall rule here is that men (trans men are men!) are not to be assuming a position of power at this FemDom party, and dress to represent that. If at any point you feel we have made an assumption based on your presentation please let us know what step we can take to remedy this!
FemDom/femme attendees can dress to impress as they wish (fetish wear encouraged).
Men/submissive attendees are required to dress to express their interest in femdom, even in some small way, examples include:
Fetish wear, collars/leash, cuffs, high heels, fetish shoes, hoods, leather, PVC
Crossdressed, glamour, make-up, lingerie
Uniforms*, costumes, puppy or animal costumes
Bright silly clothing, rainbows, sweet jammies, cute underpants, bow ties, bunny ears, etc.
May not wear plain street clothes, jeans, or even a nice suit. If you have not made an effort to abide by the dress code, you may not be allowed entry.
First-timer men and submissives who do not own fetishwear:
Something costumey or silly
Can be shirtless or take their pants off to show off their underwear (we have bunny ears, cat ears, and collars you may use as well for the duration of the event if you have not come prepared, but people not abiding inside the club may be asked to leave!)
