Our drug of choice is endorphins! We aim to be accessibility friendly and ecologically responsible. We’re here for innovative, safer, queer sexual exploration and expression.

BDSM and sexuality can be very challenging, we encourage (after)care and personal/community responsibility. We focus experiences through the lenses of practical reality, body and mind, less through mystics and spirits. We aspire to be a barrio that values and respects differences, as well as various concepts of life. Together we create a community where differences count as normal. We strive against any kind of prejudice, discrimination, exclusion, inequality and bigotry, such as: capitalistic values, the patriarchy, homophobia, transphobia, ableism, sexism, racism, cultural appropriation, ageism, stigma or kink shaming. Come & Play is a community-oriented barrio that always tries to be in the quietest corner of Nowhere. We like to have fun in a conscious and respectful way.

The place where hummus meets salmorejo, Ottomans meet Crusaders, Belly Dancers meet Flamenco, and Renaissance painters and math nerds meet sleazy and extroverted hippies. All of that dressed with a bit of olive oil, of course. Yalla,

Yes!

We are spiritual-seekers with a twist of sexiness. Our camp has the basics covered, enough shade to protect our tents from the Spanish sun, and two spaces for the dozens of workshops we throw including hanging the occasional Shibari partner. We stick to the quieter end of the playa (it helps with what little sleep we end up getting) and may be going full solar this year. Our kitchen cooks for 60 and has been known to use camp members instead of serving trays. We drink radlers during build, many many radlers, and keep some surprises for those who are able to stick around for strike. If any of this seems like your jam and you want to check our our family, apply
