Ever wondered what happens when the kink world takes over New Orleans? Buckle up, because DomCon New Orleans is about to unleash a storm of leather, latex, and unapologetic BDSM swagger in the French Quarter. From October 22 to 26, 2025, the Astor Crowne Plaza Hotel becomes the epicenter of domination, drawing pro Dommes, fetish models, and curious kinksters from across the globe. And who better to spill the tea than Mistress Cyan, the mastermind behind it all?
Mistress Cyan Sets the Stage for DomCon NOLA
Mistress Cyan, the fierce founder of DomCon, recently dropped by Nick Tanek’s Your Kinky Friends livestream to dish on what makes this event a must for anyone with a pulse on the BDSM lifestyle. This isn’t just another con—it’s a full-on immersion into power dynamics, pleasure, and community. Held at 739 Canal Street, the event boasts sponsors like JustFor.Fans and Hustler Hollywood, ensuring a vibe that’s as polished as it is provocative.
Who’s Who at DomCon 2025
The guest list reads like a BDSM hall of fame. This year’s honorees—Ms Ariel from the National Coalition for Sexual Freedom, Miss Chris, Mistress Ella Strictland, and MsDDom—are set to bring their A-game. Cyan didn’t hold back when Tanek asked about the pro Dommes who flock to DomCon.
“Every pro Domme you’ve heard of has been there. I don’t know anyone I can ask for that hasn’t already been there,”
– Mistress Cyan
But it’s not just about the big names. New talent is crashing the scene, with fresh faces hitting up classes to hone their craft. Whether you’re a seasoned whip-wielder or a newbie curious about cuffs, there’s space for everyone.
The Second Line Parade: Kink Takes the Streets
Here’s where DomCon NOLA leaves other kink events in the dust. On Friday evening, the French Quarter gets a front-row seat to the second line parade, a half-mile march of 200 kinksters in full fetish gear. Picture floggers waving, a brass band blaring, and a police escort leading the way. It’s not just a parade—it’s a bold celebration of the kink community, complete with tributes to those who’ve passed. No other event pulls this off, and it’s a damn good reason to show up.
Tips for First-Timers: Don’t Be Shy
Nervous about diving into the deep end? Cyan’s got you covered. Her advice for new pros and lifestyle kinksters? Hit the socials.
- Introduce yourself—New Orleans folks are as real as it gets.
- Don’t let the big names intimidate you; everyone’s there to connect.
- Lean into the laid-back vibe and make friends who share your kinks.
The socials are where the magic happens—think less dungeon, more “let’s grab a drink and talk flogging techniques.” It’s the perfect spot to network, flirt, or plan your next scene.
Why DomCon NOLA Stands Out
Sure, there are kink events coast to coast, but DomCon New Orleans has a flavor all its own. Beyond the parade, it’s the mix of professional dominatrixes, sex educators, and content creators that sets it apart. Add in sponsors like AVN and The Stockroom, and you’ve got a convention that’s as legit as it is wild. Plus, volunteer spots make it accessible—email [email protected] if you want in. Cyan’s all about opening doors to the community, whether you’re a pro or just dipping your toes.
