We are taking our famous Condom Packing Party to Steamworks to celebrate their 50th anniversary, and yes, we are turning up the heat.

This one-night-only, sex-positive volunteer event invites you to help stuff condoms and l**e into tight little packages. Dress to your comfort level: stay fully clothed, lose the t-shirt, or rock a towel.

A classic HIM favourite, Condom Packing Parties are a great way to meet new people, share some laughs, and support sexual health in a hands-on way. Expect playful energy, good company, and plenty of fun.

And the cherry on top? 5% of all Wednesday entry sales in March will be donated to HIM, so tell your friends to meet you there afterward.

Limited capacity: Pre-registration required.

Every week will showcase the perspective of a different community leader. We’ll discuss consent, communication, and power, and then explore a specific topic to spice up your next hookup. Each workshop in this series is a chance to learn a new skill, share your experience, and meet players in the community. Sign up for all 5 workshops or pick the topics that make you feel hottest under the collar.
