Cuddle Fest A Cozy, Consent-Forward Connection Party
Cuddle Fest is a playful, consent-centered night of connection, cuddling & cozy vibes. Together we will soften into the space with shared agreements, grounded structure & connection games. This will allow us to explore safe platonic touch with more clarity & curiosity leading to an evening of open playful flow.
This is an alcohol free choose-your-own-adventure night. You decide how you want to participate. Cuddle. Chat. Stretch out. Sip tea. Hang by the fire. There’s no script and no pressure. Just a shared space built on clear consent and nourishing connection. And Remember resting, observing, or taking solo time is always welcome.
Come solo or bring a friend.
Come to cuddle or just to hang out.
Leave feeling nourished, regulated & deeply grounded.
Tickets:
$35- Sign up thru Partiful or reach out to a host directly.
Location: Will be sent out to attendees the week of the event. (Near William Cannon & Manchaca)
🪷The Vibe
• Fully clothed & platonic (non-sexual space)
• Consent is required & celebrated
• First-timers welcome
• No experience needed
• No pressure to participate in anything
• Rooted in clear boundaries, respect & embodied consent
🌿The Flow

Land softly. Grab tea, a snack, chat & get cozy.
7:30 PM | Ground In Together
We begin as a group with shared agreements, consent foundations & connection games.
This is where we:
Build trust & shared language

• Strengthen confidence in both our YES & NO
This shared framework is what allows the rest of the night to feel relaxed, playful & supportive.
