Location: Piscataway, NJ
TES Fest is the annual gathering for the BDSM and sex-positive communities to celebrate the steps TES‘s founding fathers took in 1971:Â the opportunity to find our freedom.
Taking place over the Fourth of July weekend, TES Fest is the premiere event in the NYC Metro region for everyone (from amateurs to seasoned veterans) to socialize, learn new skills and simply have a great time. With classes and special events covering the gamut of topics and special interests, TES Fest allows people to explore, educate and entertain themselves in a healthy, safe and sane environment.
TES Fest 2010 will be held July 2-5, 2010 at a 3 star hotel in Piscataway, N. J. We will have the ENTIRE hotel for the weekend. There will be no shuttle buses to ride, everything all in the same place.
We have tons of classes, great vendors, and fabulous play-space setup by The Crucible. Come out and relax and play. No stress. Cool people. Who needs the beach when we have a pool all to ourselves? What more do you want for a holiday weekend.
See the TES Fest website for information about registering, presenters, special events, the event hotel, etc.
