Our host hotel, the Empress, has sold out for NJ Leather Weekend 2026. Asbury Park is no longer a seasonal destination, and we thank the Leather Community near and far for being an important contributor to this. Both the Berkeley Oceanfront Hotel and the Asbury Hotel are within walking distance of Paradise. There are also a number of historic B & B’s just south on the boardwalk in Ocean Grove. Numerous hotel/motel options exist just a short drive away in neighboring Neptune, as well as Air B&B accommodations in Asbury Park and the surrounding towns. We are excited to welcome you “Down the Shore” for what we promise will be an unforgettable event.
This invitation will be updated regularly, check back often for additional details as they are announced.
