UPDATE COMING!

News posted October 14, 2021 / No Comments

Edit – So, no announcement was made on this today.

Perhaps the BC Health Authority meant something different when they said on Tuesday “We’ll make an announcement on this by the end of the week”? Either way, we’ll check in with an update of our own tomorrow / Saturday. Thanks for being patient, everyone!

Hello everyone! Just a quick message to let you know we will have another update tomorrow (Friday Oct 15), late afternoon.

There has been no change since our last update posted in the SIN CITY Fetish Halloween 2021 event listing, so we have nothing new to report as of yet. However! The provincial health authorities have stated they will be giving an update Friday specifically regarding activity and capacity restrictions for indoor events, which indoor venues can expect to come into effect on October 24, when the double vaccination requirement for indoor gatherings comes into full implementation.

Whether or not the events are able to proceed at full capacity and have more tickets released, or, whether we have to stay at 50% capacity tickets sold (which is where we are at right now) with no more tickets being released, or whether the event has to be postponed yet again, is all dependent on what restrictions (if any) are lifted by Halloween.

Please read this article from earlier this week for more information : https://globalnews.ca/news/8260353/bc-covid-19-event-capacity-limits/

The main parts of the article which are relevant to indoor nightclub-type events are listed below. While this doesn’t give any full guarantee of anything, it does sound encouraging that, at the very least, we’ll know by this weekend whether we can have dancing again by Halloween. Cross your fingers, toes and everything else!

B.C. TO DECIDE ON COVID-19 EVENT CAPACITY CHANGES BY END OF THIS WEEK

By Elizabeth McSheffrey ~ Global News
Posted October 12, 2021 1:15 pm

The province will decide by the end of this week whether it intends to change the capacity limits for organized events held during the COVID-19 pandemic.

British Columbia is one of the last provinces in Canada with guest number restrictions in place for events like weddings, hockey games, concerts, and theatre performances.

Those rules are now under review, said Dr. Bonnie Henry, as the deadline for requiring proof of double vaccination at events approaches.

“Our intent was always, when the full vaccine card came into effect, that we would be able to go 100 per cent capacity and take away some of the other restrictions we have around some events, like dancing and remaining seated,” said Dr. Henry, the provincial health officer, in a Tuesday press briefing.

Beginning Oct. 24, provincial health orders mandate that event organizers must obtain vaccine card proof of double vaccination, and deny entry to those who can’t produce it.

We know it’s a frustrating and exhausting waiting game right now. Thank you everyone for being so patient while we all wait for more information that will allow us to make further decisions and plans!

PURR – POSTPONED!

News posted October 1, 2021 / No Comments

Oct 3 update : PURR this weekend is postponed, all tickets have now been refunded.

Hopefully we can lock down a new date for an event and have a new ticket release date before long!

Full Info :

Hello everyone! Thank you all for your excitement and enthusiasm for what we had hoped to be our first event back. When we booked it months ago, things were looking bright, new case counts were consistently very low, and we had easily moved into Phase 3 of the provincial re-opening plans, which gave us the ability to have larger personal gatherings and got us one step closer to Phase, which was due to possibly happen Sept 7. Phase 4 is where indoor dancing becomes permitted, masks become optional, capacity sizes for indoor gatherings are increased. As we know, we have not been able to move to Phase 4 yet due to persistent high numbers of new cases, due to a variety of factors.

With the introduction of the vaccine passport, requiring all attendees of indoor events to be vaccinated, there was hope that restrictions for indoor gatherings of vaccinated attendees would be lifted, but as of today, nothing has been announced by the provincial health authorities in this regard. We can only cross our fingers that this -will- happen by October 24, when the requirement to have all attendees be double vaccinated comes fully into effect.

This leaves us currently still in Phase 3, which means no dancing, masks required, and no mingling, events must be seated. Staging PURR as an outdoor event, or a seated, and/or masked event is not an option, therefore, we are sadly cancelled for this weekend. Hopefully we will have a new date before long, but venues are in very short supply, with weekends booked up until well into the New Year.

A gigantic thank you to everyone for balancing excitement with patience as we wind our way back to in-person events. It’s a difficult and mentally taxing time riding the wave of changes and pulling everything together to be ready for events – all without knowing exactly when the rules may change or what they will change to, but we are getting there and we will be ready when it’s green light time!

In the meantime, we highly encourage everyone to sign up to our direct email Newsletters and move away from relying on social media for news of events like PURR, Sin City Fetish Night, Passion Portal – Enchanted Forest Party, and all our family of Restricted Entertainment events. This is the absolutely best way to make sure you don’t miss news of new events, and future dates for ticket releases!

Sign up for the Sin City Fetish Night newsletter right here at the website 😉

Sign up for the Passion Portal newsletter here —> https://mailchi.mp/628694f99443/passion-portal-newsletter-signup?fbclid=IwAR0hzI_EfI5H_l1wIbdboB6X6fq-a-zTY9g-sSX09vNEVREhyjmiMdPHZ1o

We send out notices for PURR to both newsletters, and you can easily unsubscribe at any time.

We love and miss all of you and can’t wait to get sweaty with y’all on a dancefloor as soon as we can! It’ll be Halloween before you know it!

xoxoxo and see you soon at another event down the road!

SEPT 23 – TICKET UPDATE

News posted September 23, 2021 / No Comments

UPDATE / SEPT 23 :

Hello everyone! A huge thank you to our extended Restricted Entertainment community of family and friends for the crazy support, excitement and enthusiasm for all our Halloween weekend events! Sin City sold out in just a few hours on the day of ticket release, Passion Portal shortly thereafter by the end of the day, and while there are still tickets for our Coffin Club party on October 31, those are going quickly as well! We have an amazing cross-section of creative, weird and wonderful people geared up to celebrate the weekend on all three days of the festival!

There’s still lots of questions and unknowns for attendees, venues and event organizers alike as we move forward through these wild times. There are an unbelievable amount of things which all have to be co-ordinated exactly right for events like these to happen, and while everyone is doing their best, no one can 100% predict for sure what the future holds, and all we can do is plan for the best, but be prepared for whatever outcome happens. Thank you for your patience, support and understanding as we do our best to bring everything needed together to make the events happen, in a way that is transparent and safe for our communities.

OVERVIEW :

We are currently still in Phase 3 of the BC Reopening Plans, which currently means no dancing inside, seated, no mingling between tables, limited capacity, masks etc. Phase 4 will be when indoor dancing becomes permitted, masks become optional, and capacity is increased for indoor events. The date of Sept 7 was given as the earliest date the province would move to Phase 4, but this has been delayed due to the still ongoing persistent high new daily case counts.

As of October 24, it will become mandated that all attendees of indoor events will have to provide proof of double vaccination. The province has indicated they will give further information as to the reopening plans by this date. The general assumption is that indoor events will essentially be permitted to move to Phase 4 at this point. While we would hope for more information earlier rather than later, this is not guaranteed, and we are currently in a holding pattern waiting for more news. When a further news bulletin from the province arrives, it could be many things : no change, everything still closed, or, open, but with capacity restrictions, or, open fully with no restrictions. We must all be prepared for the possibility of any of these things to happen, though of course we are all planning for things to re-open.

The events will only be proceeding if dancing and mingling is permitted with masks optional. If these things are still not permitted by Halloween weekend, the events will be postponed / cancelled, and tickets refunded.

“WILL THERE BE MORE TICKETS RELEASED?”

We are currently at 50% of the capacity of the venue sold out for Sin City & Passion Portal. There are still tickets available for Coffin Club. These are all the tickets we can currently release at this time for the Passion Portal and Sin City parties. We are monitoring all news releases from the Province carefully, and if there is a green light that we can open at a higher capacity, more tickets will be released immediately. We highly recommend signing up to the Newsletters for Passion Portal and Sin City and not relying on social media for news of more tickets becoming available.

“ARE THERE ANY TICKETS IN STORES?”

No. All tickets are online only. There are no printed physical tickets. Beware of scammers!

“WILL WE BE ALLOWED TO DANCE?”

The event will only be proceeding if dancing is allowed, so yes.

“WILL WE HAVE TO WEAR MASKS?”

The event will only be proceeding if masks are optional and not required, so, no.

“WILL WE HAVE TO STAY SEATED AT A TABLE?”

The event will only be proceeding if mingling is allowed, so, no.

“WILL I BE REQUIRED TO SHOW PROOF OF VACCINATION?”

Yes. By the time of Halloween, all legal indoor venues and businesses hosting social gatherings will be required by government mandate and health orders to have all attendees provide proof of double vaccination, and photo ID. You can find out more about vaccine policies here : https://www2.gov.bc.ca/gov/content/covid-19/vaccine/proof

“I’M COMING FROM OUTSIDE B.C., WHAT DO I USE FOR VACCINE PROOF?”

As per the weblink listed above, people from other Canadian provinces or territories must show :

– Provincially/territorially officially recognized vaccine record
– Valid government photo ID

“HOW DO I REQUEST A REFUND OR TICKET TRANSFER?”

This is handled by the venue’s ticketing team. Please direct ticket change emails to :

ticketing@themrggroup.com

We know it’s mentally exhausting dealing with the uncertainty surrounding events at this time – we feel this and are doing everything we can to get back to large-scale in-person events as soon as humanly possible. We remain committed to doing so safely, with the prime directive being to bring the community together again to celebrate our diversity and collectively participate in the joy of self-expression in an encouraging, inspiring and accepting atmosphere!

BLOCK PARTY – THANK YOU!

News posted August 16, 2021 / No Comments

A huge and heartfelt THANK YOU from our whole team at Restricted Entertainment and Sin City Fetish Night to everyone who helped out with and attended our kinky Pop-Up Block Party!

After not seeing everyone for a year and a half, we knew we needed to put together a social re-connection event where people could get back out and start to expand their bubbles, but in a way that would feel relaxed and comfortable given all the extraordinary circumstances regulating how, when and where we can gather! We are absolutely thrilled at how well everything came together ❤

The weather and our location turned out frankly PERFECTLY for the event! The space was central but also semi-private and really felt like our own enclave where we could express ourselves out in the sunlight and open air. Gigantic thank you to The Narrow for working with us to create our space around the anchor point of their patio and back lot – and an even bigger thank you for all tasty slushy drinks and food served up to our thirsty, hungry Sinners! The staff were accommodating to us in every way and we are beyond thankful for all the extra touches they brought to our pop-up event.

Massive thank yous to Brian, Shea, and Marc, for helping out in the days leading up to the event, throwing fresh coats of paint on our pop-up production gear, helping fabricate a long table for the central gathering space, running a hundred feet of network cable so we could connect the DJs and the event to our online community and keep it accessible to those who were not able to attend in person! You wouldn’t believe how much background work went into preparing the space for our gathering!

Big thank you to all the people who pitched in at the end to help pack up!

Huge thank yous to our DJ crew, reunited for the first time in a year with Kasey Riot joining myself (DJ Pandemonium) and Evilyn13 for a huge variety of dirty beats!

MASSIVE thank you to Dangerous Goods, who brought down and provided one of their gorgeous spanking benches for the party, and to Switch Kitchen for hosting the spanking area!

Extra thank you’s to Nav and Pika, our front of house check-in and security staff, who came out on short notice and made everyone feel so comfortable and taken care of, right on arrival!

Thank you to everyone who tuned in and partied along remotely with us, connected via our Restricted Entertainment channel on Twitch! There were on average 200-300 people tuned in from all over the world, enjoying the DJs, music, vibe, and online chat!

But most of all THANK YOU to everyone who came out IN THE GLORIOUS FLESH to say hello and hang out!

We know we’ve all developed habits of avoiding groups of people for the last year and as the restrictions lift and this becomes safe and permitted again (under certain guidelines to follow health regulations of course!), it can cause some anxiety as we re-train our brains to feel it’s OK! The amount of people never exceeded about 2/3 of the capacity of the space and there was always lots of room to spread out, and everyone was very comfortable keeping whatever distance they needed. To see everyone so happy to see each other, but also being so understanding and respectful of people’s space and needs, is what our fetish community is all about.
MASSIVE THANK YOU TO EVERYONE WHO DRESSED UP KINKY! Leather, latex, harnesses and much more were on full display, meshed perfectly with people who chose to come casual, everyone hanging out together and having a great time. HOT DAMN WE ARE A SEXY BUNCH!

We loved seeing you all and can’t wait to do it again!

We are crossing our fingers that we get another weekend before the summer is over where the weather will allow us to have another gathering!

In the meantime, this week we have another VERY exciting event announcement for one of our biggest events of the year.

Make sure you are signed up to the Sin City Newsletter to stay in touch!

Social media (and ESPECIALLY Facebook) -actively- throttles any content they determine to have any “sexual content”. This applies to almost all fetish events. Facebook is quite frankly the WORST place to rely on for news of fetish events. The absolute best way to stay in touch with your kink community is through being subscribed directly to their Newsletters and emailouts, where we can all be our unfiltered selves.

We hope you all have a glow and a smile on as big as ours right now!

JOIN THE VOLUNTEER TEAM!

News posted June 16, 2021 / No Comments

Love our events and community and want to help out behind the scenes? Join the volunteer list!

For almost all our events, we send out a volunteer callout to this private list before posting anywhere else. Most volunteer shifts are approximately 60 minutes loading for set up during the day, and tearing down at the end of the night. In return, volunteers get free admission to the event that night, or can bank their free spot to one regular event in the future! No technical knowledge needed, and the atmosphere is always friendly and fun – and a great way to connect with like-minded friends from the fetish community who love to help out!

Joining the list does not obligate you to volunteer at any specific event, you can reply or not reply to the volunteer callout emails as your availability warrants, whether it’s regularly, or just once in a while. Our events are built with a wide range of support from the community, and all help is welcome.

This list is private and not shared anywhere else, and you can unsubscribe from the list anytime, by clicking the ‘unsubscribe’ link found at the end of any of the volunteer emailouts.

Thank you for being part of the kink community in Vancouver!

FETISH NYE – Venue, Ticket & Arrival Details

News posted December 30, 2019 / No Comments

Keep reading for all the answers to the most common questions people might have about Sin City’s Fetish NYE Masquerade. A reminder that entry is conditional on compliance with the fetish dress code. All outfits must be sexy / fetish / risqué / pervy in some way! No effort = no entry, no exceptions. No refunds for non-adequate outfits which do not pass dress code! Please note that having an advance ticket does -not- guarantee entry without compliance to the dress code.

“WHERE IS THE VENUE?”

Sin City Fetish NYE this year is held at the fabulous IMPERIAL CABARET at 319 Main Street. Doors 9 PM, party goes to 3 AM.

Performances at 10:45 PM, midnight countdown, international headliner performances at 1:30 AM, DJs, dancing, and good times with 400+ fetish friends from start to close!

“I DIDN’T GET TICKETS. ARE THERE TICKETS AT THE DOOR?”

There are a limited number of tickets available at the door, first come, first serve, available when the doors open at 9 PM!

“I BOUGHT TICKETS ONLINE – WHAT DOCUMENTATION DO I NEED TO BRING TO CLAIM THEM?”

It does help speed things up a bit if you can bring a printout of your confirmation email from your ticket purchase, or have it ready to show on your phone at the ticket desk, but we do have a listing of all online ticket purchases at the door. All you need to claim your tickets at the door are your ID and the credit card which matches the purchase.

“I WANT TO CHANGE THE NAME ON MY ONLINE TICKET TO SOMEONE ELSE BECAUSE I AM SELLING MY TICKET. HOW DO I DO IT?”

You can log in to the Eventbrite website using the email you used to purchase the ticket, and edit all the details of your ticket order, including the customer name. In this manner you can transfer your online ticket to a third party if your plans have changed and you wish to pass your ticket along to another person.

“WHAT TIME SHOULD I ARRIVE?”

We cannot stress this enough, COME EARLY! Cabs, transit and parking can all take much longer than expected on NYE, and the last thing you want is to arrive late, be stuck in a lineup at peak arrival time, and miss any of the party, which is packed with fun times right from 9 PM!

Every person arriving has a ticket, just like you, and it is first come, first serve, for entry at the door. We HIGHLY recommend showing up early to avoid line waits! Many people come down to the area early and have dinner nearby – and then head into the venue right at doors opening at 9 PM. If you wish to arrive at ‘peak time’ between 10-11 PM, be prepared for waits to get in, as several hundred people will be arriving at the exact same time and people can only get through the entry and coat check so fast. Once again, we cannot stress enough that the earlier you can arrive, the better. The party will be in full swing almost immediately!

“REMIND ME ABOUT THE DRESS CODE …”

Absolutely no street wear, casual wear or plain work clothes! Plain jeans, cargo pants, t-shirts and suits are not permitted. Lower genital nudity is not permitted. Suggested attire includes: vinyl, leather, PVC, tuxedo, full uniform, fantasy or period costume, armour, cross-dress, rubber, bondage, body paint, kilt, fancy ingerie, or any risque costume your kinky little mind can dream up … and please … not “just underwear!” No effort = no entry!

HIGHLY ENCOURAGED OUTFIT THEMES :

• glitz
• glamour
• upscale
• Vegas
• feathers
• tuxedo
• tailcoat
• top hats
• carnival
• freakshow

See you soon! It’s almost time to kiss 2019 goodbye at the wildest party in the city!
