PROUD & Kinky Photo Galleries

After a twelve-month hush, when the queer kink scene in Las Vegas felt like it was holding its breath, PROUD & Kinky swung the doors wide open on June 20, 2025, and reminded us exactly why we missed them. Find the full event photo gallery below, or, to read the article about this event in PROUD & Kinky magazine, visit: Naughty Playground.

PROUD & Kinky's Love Hurts event was a "Queer BDSM Play Party & Safe Space for All Bodies" and had a variety of entertainment options for attendees that included: live performances, kinky surprises, a full dungeon with monitors, and a bootblack.

Located inside the Las Vegas PRIDE Festival, the PROUD & Kinky area was a private and enclosed space for adults (18+) to explore kinks, fetishes, and alternative lifestyles. ID was required for entry.
