Savor - Come Get a Taste

Curious. Controlled. Intentional.

The Flow of the Night

1. Savor runs from 5:00 PM to 9:00 PM at Paradox
2. Nectar runs from 8:00 PM to 1:00 AM at Stopgap

Guests are welcome to attend either event or both.

This is not a free-play event and not a full-scene party. It is an opportunity to linger, socialize, and experience a wide range of kink styles in short, curated tasters led by skilled house tops - then and decide what you might want more of later.

Think of it as a tasting menu: small bites, distinct flavors, no obligation to commit to a full course.

How Savor Works

Throughout the night, multiple house tops will be stationed in the open play area, each offering brief sampler experiences in one or more of their areas of expertise. These tasters are intentionally short and focused - enough to give you a feel for the style, sensation, or dynamic, without becoming a full scene.

Offerings depend on which house tops are present. Examples may include:

1. Impact play (spanking, flogging, etc.)
2. Rope and bondage
3. Electro play
4. Knife play
5. Humiliation and psychological play

Guests do not play with each other at this event. All sampler experiences are facilitated exclusively by house tops.

Guests are welcome to attend either party or both. Savor ticket holders will receive a special link in their ticket confirmation email for a discounted ticket to Nectar.

Sign-Ups & Flow

Each sampler station will have a sign-up sheet. Guests are invited to put their name down for any tasters that interest them, then relax and enjoy the space while waiting for their turn.

While you wait, you can:

1. Mingle and socialize in the designated social area
2. Observe samplers from the observation space
3. Get comfortable watching different styles of play before deciding what to try

This structure keeps the energy calm, organized, and accessible - especially for guests who enjoy watching, learning, or easing in slowly.

Important Expectations

1. Samplers are not full scenes
2. There is no provided aftercare
3. If you require aftercare, you must arrange it for yourself
4. Clear communication and consent are expected at all times

Savor is about exposure and education, not endurance or intensity.

The Space

Savor will be held at Paradox, featuring:

1. A large open play area
2. A dedicated observation zone
3. A social lounge for conversation and connection
4. All-gender bathrooms
