AfterHours Lounge: High Scores and Hot Mics

Karaoke and Video Games in a BDSM Dungeon

Kick off your New Year’s resolution to make new friends and get to know the SF Kink Community! Hosted at Stopgap, the Bay Area’s premier club for the local scene, this well-appointed venue will be converted into an exciting lounge for Video Games and Karaoke.

This is not a play party but an opportunity to hang out in a low-pressure environment at one of SF’s best play spaces. Due to venue licensing alcohol cannot be served on premises, but there will be a variety of non-alcoholic drinks available for purchase.

What to expect:

A casual and sexy hangout at SF’s premier play space and dungeon. No plans? No problem! Drop in for:

1. Facilitated video games with new friends from 8pm to 10pm
2. Strip Overcooked
3. Shibario Kart
4. Lingerie Karaoke all night long
5. A chance to just be social with other kinky and sex positive folks from around the Bay Area!

Who should come?

1. Sex Nerds (or Sexy Nerds) looking to meet other people who share similar interests
2. Newcomers seeking to explore kink and sex-positive events but not ready to dive straight into a sex party or dungeon event
3. Karaoke geeks looking to connect with other karaoke geeks. Why sing for strangers at a bar when you can sing for people you can connect with here?
4. Anyone looking to start 2026 off strong with friends and fun and explore the endless potential of the SF Kink scene.

The Venue

This event will be held at Stopgap in San Francisco. The address will be provided to ticket holders for privacy and safety reasons. For planning purposes, it is in SOMA and a 10 minute walk from the UN Plaza/Civic Center BART station.

While a new venue in it's current iteration, the building itself has a rich history in the kink community. The first floor is fully accessible, with social and play spaces - including hardpoints. Descend into the 3100 square foot basement to enjoy historic equipment that many in the community may have enjoyed in days gone by plus some newer pieces from our collection. There will be crosses, benches, tables, bondage chairs, cages, and much more! @Stopgap is not only located in an important place of kink history, it's a place of history in the making right now.

2. If you have previously been to Stopgap, you may buy a walk-in ticket at the door otherwise you must buy a presale ticket. We accept cash, Venmo, and Zelle at the door.
