2026 details to come!

The Bondage Expo Dallas is an annual convention since 2013 that centers on bondage held at a hotel. It offers self-bondage classes, couple classes, direct interaction with speakers, practitioners, and vendors, as well as hands-on workshops for beginners, intermediates, and advanced practitioners. Attendees can also find spaces for sharing experiences, making friends, and finding potential collaborators.

Benefits of attending the expo include access to a wealth of knowledge spanning from the history of kinbaku and rope bondage to the latest techniques and toys in the market, as well as opportunities to connect with the bondage community through educational activities, workshops, and discussions. Instructors are known for their patience, thoughtfulness, and approachability, fostering a supportive learning environment where attendees can easily find guidance and inspiration.

The convention welcomes attendees aged 18 and above, regardless of prior experience in shibari. It's an inclusive and friendly environment where both individuals and couples can participate. The organizers strive to facilitate connections, even helping singles find partners for hands-on activities. With events starting at 9:00 am and ending around 12:00 am, attendees can enjoy workshops, classes, vendor booths, special events, Meet & Greet nights, and afterparties, making it a comprehensive and enriching experience for those interested in shibari.

Message from the BED Team:

As we continue to curate events that provide a safe, warm environment to explore, learn and practice skills since 2013. Oour goal is to continue bringing safer, new heights to your alternative lifestyle activities. Our event's main theme is always inspired by and based on Shibari, a historical Japanese Bondage Art.

PLEASE take a moment to read these very important words:

When you purchase your tickets the legal name you give MUST match the ID you will present when you check in at the event. If the legal name used to purchase your tickets and the ID you present don't match, it will cause serious check-in delays.

If you purchase a ticket for someone else PLEASE give their legal name. If you give your legal name on additional tickets, you can change it to their name at any time. Otherwise, you MUST be with them with your ID (that matches the legal name you gave to buy the ticket) when they come to check in at the event.

Please, triple check the email address you provide when you purchase your ticket/s. If you are purchasing a ticket for someone else, please give us their email address if possible. We use these to communicate about class surveys, class ticketing & lottery, and provide updates and announcements.

If you purchase more than 1 ticket but you only provide us with 1 email address ALL notifications for ALL tickets purchased in that group will (only) go to THAT email address, so PLEASE forward all emails you get to the other ticketholders and make sure they are in the know too.

The email MUST:

1) come from the same email address you used for the registered ticket holder when the ticket was originally purchased.

2) include the legal & scene name that was originally given when the ticket was purchased

3) include the legal name of the person you will be transferring the ticket to (it must match the name on the ID they will present when they check in at B.E.D.), their scene name, and their email address.

While we encourage people to transfer their tickets if they can't use them, it is a private deal between the people involved in the transfer.
