KinkFest 2025 BootySoBig Scholarship

KinkFest is pleased to offer the BootySoBig Scholarship in memory of BootySoBig. With her big heart, kind spirit and powerful masochism, Booty inspired many of us before she died on January 21, 2023. This year, KinkFest will award up to 50 registrations to community-minded kinksters in honor of Booty. Recipients must be people of color, people who experience a disability, or both.

The application has a few questions that will be reviewed by a small panel of POC and people who experience a disability. The application will close once 50 people have applied or on September 14, whichever comes first.

Apply here.
