NEWCOMERS GUIDE - Welcome to a unique club!

On this page, we’ve gathered the essentials information whether it’s your very first party or it’s been a long time since your last party and you want to catch up.

 

 

ABOUT MANIFEST

ManiFest is rooted in fetishism, with a dedicated focus on fetish clothing. If dressing up isn’t your thing, this may not be the party for you.

ManiFest is run entirely by our passionate and dedicated volunteers from ManiCrew. Every detail, from planning and setting up the events to taking them down afterward, is done during our free time. 

 

PREPARE YOURSELF FOR THE PARTY

 

STRICT DRESSCODE – THE BACKBONE OF MANIFEST FETISH CLUB

ManiFest is a fetish party with a strict Dresscode. It’s the backbone of our parties, and everyone must pass the Dresscode Check-In when they arrive.

Pro Tip: Our Dresscode guides are ready to assist you before the party. Send an email with photos of your planned outfit, and they’ll help ensure your outfit complies with the Dresscode.

HOW WE PARTY – OUR CODE OF CONDUCT

ManiFest is a unique sex positive space built on respect, friendliness, politeness, and high tolerance.

To maintain this always follow our Code of Conduct to help ensure a great party for everyone.

We have a zero-tolerance policy for pushy or non-consensual behavior of any kind. This applies to everyone, regardless of age, gender, sexual orientation, etc.

 -  -  -  -

WHAT DOES “BEING fetish- AND SEX- POSITIVE” MEAN?

Being fetish- and sex-positive is about supporting personal empowerment and preferences without judgment. Engaging in a fetish- and sex-positive space doesn’t mean you’re obligated to have sex with anyone.

At ManiFest, being fetish- and sex-positive means:

  • You’re open-minded and non-judgmental toward fetish and sex - and people’s fetishtic and sexual preferences.
  • You can, or want to, talk openly about fetish and seex - and want to learn more about it.
  • You never "yuk" someone else’s "yum." You accept and encourage fetishistic and sexual diversity and freedom.
  • You believe in a person’s right to fetishistic and sexual pleasure, no matter their gender or identity.

IS MANIFEST A SEX PARTY?

ManiFest parties revolve around fetishism with a focus on diversity and tolerance. Many participants attend to meet friends, showcase their latest outfits, get inspired, and dance.

That said, our events also cater to those who enjoy flirting, playing, and exploring BDSM furniture and more intimate spaces.

It’s entirely up to you whether you mingle, dance, or dive into the more sexual areas of the party.

We recommend reflecting on what you’d like to experience before attending.

IDEAS TO PREPARE YOUR MINDSET

Attending our party is about enjoying the way you choose to express yourself through your outfit and your actions.

  1. Identify your boundaries, desires, and intentions
    It’s easy to be caught up in the moment, and as a first-timer, we encourage you to be aware of what your boundaries are and be responsible for yourself.

  2. Don’t Rush
    ManiFest isn’t about cramming everything into one party. Enjoy the pace and know there will be a lot more parties to explore, so no reason to rush.

  3. Breaking the Ice
    Feeling shy? You’re not alone. Everyone has been a newcomer at some point. Try starting with a simple “Hi, I’m new here” or “This is my first party, and I’m feeling a bit nervous.” The community is kind, and you’ll find people open to chatting.

 

WHAT TO EXPECT

 

WHAT TO EXPECT AT EACH PARTY?

Every event offers something different to cater to all subcultures and desires.

To give you an idea of what to expect for the upcoming party, we provide an “Expect” description, which you’ll find both in the newsletter when tickets go on sale and in the event description at manifest.dk.

ARE THEMES MANDATORY?

Our themes are here to inspire you and get you started. If you don’t feel like following the theme, that’s perfectly fine.

We only have one exception - masks are mandatory until midnight at the annual Masquerade Ball in January.

MANIFEST GUIDES

Our Guides are experienced ManiFest attendees who ensure everyone has a great night.

Look for their green LED armbands if you need help or have questions during an event. They’re here to:

  • Answer your questions about the venue or party.
  • Provide assistance navigating the space and play zones.
  • Be a friendly and approachable face if you’re feeling shy or nervous.
  • Supporting our Code of Conduct. If you experiences non-consensual behavior, please inform them immediately.

WHO WILL YOU MEET AT MANIFEST?

ManiFest is for anyone who wants to celebrate fetishism and extreme sexual expression.

With fetishism as the core value, our parties attract a wide range of people, including sadomasochists, exhibitionists, voyeurs, bondage enthusiasts, swingers, BDSM players, transvestites, drag queens/kings, gays, lesbians, bisexuals, queers, and everything in between.

We welcome everyone - young or old, beginner or experienced, regardless of gender or sexual orientation.
