Tickets available here ($15)
Dress Code
Masc-Q-Raid intends to create an environment of free expression of gender and sexuality. Attendees are encouraged to wear items that contribute to a sexually charged space, such as harnesses, leather, pup hoods, or other clothing and accessories that would feel inappropriate at the neighborhood grocery store. Nobody should feel unwelcome because they can’t afford, or don’t want to own certain kinds of clothing.
Femme gear, clothing and crossdressing are welcome at Masc-Q-raid. The purpose of the event is to provide a space for anyone who identifies as a gay man to engage in expressions of gender and sexuality. Masc-Q-Raid is a Boys’ Night—and ‘a boy dressed as a girl’ is a kind of boy to be.
Definition of Masculinity
A stated goal of Circle City Leather is that someone who wants to identify as a gay man for the very first time should feel comfortable doing so at our events. We do not support or tolerate discrimination on the basis of anatomy, or perceived “passability” of gender presentation. If you come to our event using he/him or they/them pronouns, you will be welcome here.
Spaces and amenities
Sensory Recovery (Ground Floor)
A darker, quieter area is available for taking sensory breaks. Attendees are asked to respect the tranquility of the space to assist in the comfort of people who may feel overstimulated by the environment, or who are recovering from intense play.
Conversational / Snack Area (Ground Floor)
A well-lit area with tables and chairs is provided adjacent to the kitchen. This area may be used for conversation, games, snacking and eating, or other non-play activities. Some snacks and drinks are available to purchase through the venue.
Play Areas
Our venue features expansive play areas, containing furniture with attachment points and all the comforts of home. Whether you come to see a show, or put on a display all your own, you’ll find what you’re looking for at The Masc-Q-Raid!
