Thick Hitches Conference

Berlin, Germany🇩🇪· Karada House Past

Thick Hitches Conference runs 23–25 May in Berlin, Germany.

Rope conference hosted by Karada House and centered on fat-identifying people and bodies in rope. The 2025 Karada House page describes it as a three-day in-person Berlin rope conference with mostly Japanese-inspired rope bondage and facilitators Ceci Ferox, Ginger, Mouse and Queerbaku; the separate in-house programme lists their workshop / session blocks across May 23-25. Karada's March 2026 update says Thick Hitches 2026 is going virtual on July 24-26, 2026; a previously captured Karada event page listed Ceci Ferox, Ginger, Mouse, Queerbaku, Ms. Reemah and Hansu as facilitators before the direct event permalink began returning 404.
