LoveFest is our invitation to community to slow down, exhale, and recenter your pleasure. Inspired by Janet Jackson’s The Pleasure Principle, this year’s theme, The Pleasure Principle, was born from a desire to create something soft, sexy, and intentional — a vibe made specifically for the Black queer community.
Expect a full day of experiences designed to help you explore physical pleasure, sexual health, intentional cannabis consumption, as well as conscious consumption of other substances and curated cocktail workshops. This event reminds us that pleasure is not a luxury — it’s essential to the wellbeing of Black gay, bisexual, and same-gender-loving men in Chicago.
