In the heart of the West Coast kink community, Dark Odyssey has become one of the most renowned immersive BDSM and sex-positive event series in the United States. Known for its extraordinary blend of education, play, and community, Dark Odyssey is more than a dungeon — it’s an entire world of erotic exploration, connection, and freedom.

Founded in 2003, Dark Odyssey hosts multi-day events throughout the year, including Surrender in San Jose, Summer Camp in Maryland, and Winter Fire in Washington, D.C. Each gathering brings together hundreds of kinksters, swingers, polyamorous folks, and curious newcomers for an unforgettable mix of workshops, parties, and dungeon play. Its San Jose edition, Dark Odyssey: Surrender, takes place at a full-service hotel transformed into a sex-positive wonderland.

Unlike traditional fixed-location dungeons, Dark Odyssey creates temporary, fully equipped play spaces designed for every flavor of kink and connection. Guests can explore multiple themed dungeon areas filled with professional BDSM equipment, all staffed by trained Dungeon Monitors to ensure consent and safety.

Education and community are at the heart of every Dark Odyssey event. Participants can attend hundreds of workshops and classes led by nationally recognized educators covering topics such as rope bondage, power exchange, edge play, tantra, and communication.

All attendees must be 21 or older and register in advance. Each event emphasizes consent culture, inclusion, and personal responsibility. Photography or video recording is strictly prohibited without consent, and play is always grounded in SSC and RACK principles — Safe, Sane, Consensual and Risk-Aware Consensual Kink.

Dark Odyssey’s reputation for inclusivity and connection is unmatched. It’s a gathering place for people of all orientations, genders, and experience levels — a space where fantasy meets freedom, and where community thrives through trust and exploration.
