The Link 🔗

The leather’s packed, the rope’s coiled, and the lube is TSA-compliant. That can only mean one thing: the Desire Unchained World Tour has officially launched! We’re not just touring, we’re forging a movement, link by link 🔗

From coast to coast and beyond our borders, our mission is simple but fierce: to build a living chain of powerful, sexy, and supportive queer folks who are ready to play and connect. We’re traveling city to city, creating spaces where queers of all flavors can link up, lock in, and let loose—because chosen family shouldn’t be limited by zip code. We have mischief planned in:

• Vancouver, BC Canada
• Los Angeles, CA
• Seattle, WA
• San Diego, CA
• Portland, OR
• Oakland, CA
• Palm Springs, CA
• Baltimore, MD

This tour isn’t just about the parties (although yes, they will be legendary). It’s about us rolling into your city, partnering with local queer events, and saying: You’re not alone. You belong. And you are invited to something bigger. Whether you’re a seasoned switch, a curious newbie, or somewhere deliciously undefined, we believe in creating brave spaces for sexual exploration, gender affirmation, and queer joy.

We’re laying the groundwork for the extraordinary. In 2026 we’ll return to the desert, for not just an event, but a full-blown family chain reaction. Every city we touch, every connection we make, is about strengthening the ties that bind us and forging bonds that last; giving you one more link in the chain of a chosen family that spans continents.

So if you see the Desire Unchained banner unfurled into your town, don’t just wave, cum party with us. Because when we’re back in Palm Springs next year, and that big family reunion unfolds under the stars, we want to look around and see faces we’ve already fallen in love with. Yours included.

Let’s build it together. See you on the road!

Wear your support. Sparkle for a cause. ✨

At Desire Unchained, we believe in the power of queer spaces—places where our bodies, identities, and desires are affirmed. And now, you can wear that belief proudly with our brand new “I Support Queer Spaces” glitter pin!

This pin isn’t just a cute accessory (though, let’s be real—it slaps). It’s a symbol of your commitment to protecting, uplifting, and resourcing the LGBTQ+ community in tangible ways. Whether you’re queer, questioning, or a ride-or-die ally, this pin says it loud and proud: you believe in spaces where queer folks can thrive, play, and just be.

Why This Matters

Queer spaces don’t appear out of nowhere—they’re built, funded, and fiercely protected by folks who believe in radical inclusion, body autonomy, and pleasure as liberation.

And here’s the proof:
Thanks to pin sales from our last in-person conference, we were able to drop play party ticket prices from $50 to $35—making our events more accessible to our community members. That’s the kind of direct impact your support makes possible.

Whether you’re a longtime community member or an enthusiastic supporter, this pin says:
🌈 I believe in queer joy
🌈 I support safer, kink-affirming, gender-inclusive spaces
🌈 I’m not just watching—I’m showing up

Product Details:

• ✨ Covered in glitter that shines as bright as your values
• 💪 Two locking pin backs (because support should never fall off)
• 🌈 100% of proceeds go toward building and sustaining queer-centered events and spaces
• 💖 Guaranteed to spark conversations and compliments

Let’s Make Support Loud and Visible

Your jacket. Your tote. Your harness. Wherever you wear it, this pin is a badge of pride and solidarity. And every time someone asks where you got it? You get to say you’re helping create spaces where queer folks can be their loud, soft, messy, magical selves. Because queer libration includes pleasure.

So go ahead, snag your pin and shine for a cause that matters.

Together, we’re building more than events—we’re building a movement. One glittery pin at a time. 🖤

Desire thrives because of the incredible people who pour their time, talent, and energy into it—and we’re opening the door for you to be part of that magic.

We’re not here to post a list of staff roles—because maybe what you bring is something we didn’t even know we needed. Are you a creative powerhouse? A logistics wizard? A calming presence during chaos? A behind-the-scenes ninja who makes things run smoother than silk?

Whether you have a specific skill to offer or just a deep love for our community and a desire (see what we did there?) to contribute, we want to hear from you.

💡 Tell us:

• What lights you up?
• What would you love to contribute?
• What kind of support would let you shine?

In return, staff receive weekend admission for you + one, an on-site hotel room, meals, a swag bag, and a whole lotta gratitude. ✨

Let’s co-create something unforgettable. Drop us your official application here and tell us what you’re bringing to the table.

We’re listening.

Dear Desire Unchained Community,

We recognize that these are deeply challenging times for queer folks in the US. With rising threats to our rights, safety, and autonomy, we know that gathering in affirming and protected spaces is more important than ever. At Desire Unchained, we don’t take this responsibility lightly. Our events are designed to be more than just places to connect; both in-person and online your privacy and security comes first.

Our Commitment to Privacy & Security

We understand that today’s digital landscape is fraught with surveillance, corporate overreach, and the exploitation of personal data. That’s why we’re taking intentional steps to ensure that your engagement with Desire Unchained remains secure and aligned with our values:

• Ethical Payment Processing – Unlike many mainstream platforms, our payment processor is a privately held company, meaning it is not beholden to shareholders prioritizing profit over people. We chose a payment processor that upholds strong Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) values, ensuring our community’s financial transactions remain aligned with our mission.
• Open-Source Technology – Our website is built using open-source technology, minimizing reliance on corporate-controlled platforms that compromise data privacy.
• Limited Use of Meta (Facebook & Instagram) – While we will maintain a calculated presence on social media, we are actively moving away from Meta’s platforms to keep our community’s data off their networks. Expect to see us relying more on internal communications, private channels, and direct outreach.
• Your Privacy Matters – From ticket purchases to event check-ins, we are committed to minimizing data collection and protecting the information you share with us. We will never sell or misuse your data—our only goal is to keep our community safe.

Building Stronger Connections

As we shift towards a more intentional, private approach to communication, we encourage you to stay connected with us via our internal channels. Whether it’s email updates or private forums we want to ensure that Desire Unchained remains a trusted space for our community.
