Reign of Pain 2026

Reign of Pain returns for its second year, bigger and more diabolical than before. This virtual event brings together some of the most passionate kink educators, sadomasochists and pain play lovers of all intensity preferences, and edge/higher risk accepting players from around the world for a weekend of education, exploration, and connection.

Reign of Pain is designed for those who crave intensity or exploration through S&M, "dark" themes and play, "edge play" or higher risk play, and other related areas. But don't let imposter syndrome tell you that you don't belong. Kinksters of all experience levels, intensity preferences, and from all backgrounds can find a home (and wickedly delightful inspiration) here.

What to Expect:

Live and recorded classes with top presenters
Pre-recorded sessions to dive into on your own schedule
Welcome tracks for grounding, context, and community
Topics such as pain processing, impact play techniques, bottom-focused education, vetting for edge play, "darker" or more "taboo" topics that are more difficult to find quality education on, fear play, emotional sadomasochism, things related to health and risk management, more niche and rarer areas of S&M, sensation play, anatomy and risks, and more!

Reign of Pain is about more than just learning techniques. It’s about embracing the things we do as an art form, a release, and a pathway to power and connection.

Whether you’re an experienced Sadist, a curious masochist, not sure of your place yet, or someone who thrives in the darker corners of kink, you’ll find a place here.
