Friday's fetish lounge event is now SOLD OUT! There are no more presale tickets. We may be able to sell a few tickets at the door, however, we are already at capacity of 300. If we have no-shows or cancellations we will try to admit additional attendees into our exclusive area of the club. General admission to The Castle is available at the door (General admission is limited to the Downstairs Bar and entire Upstairs without access to the Dungeon Room & Patio areas which are reserved for exclusive use for attendees of the Fetish factory party!).

Our first event will be held on Friday, August 15th at The Castle in Ybor City. This will be a high-fashion fetish players lounge and the event will be held in The Castle's outdoor patio & brand new dungeon room! Every Castle needs a dungeon after all!

Two Nightclubs in One

While the dungeon area will be an intimate dungeon lounge with a strict fetish dress code, Friday as usual will be taking place in all other rooms of The Castle.

Admission to our event will give you exclusive access to two areas: the dungeon lounge and the open-air porch. You will also have free reign of the rest of the nightclub. Feel free to mingle in the fetish area and float throughout the rest of the alt. dance club. Come and go as you please! The Castle is truly the ultimate alt. dance nightclub in Tampa with the best music, people, atmosphere, etc. The Castle is and has always been super fetish-friendly.

The Dungeon

This is a new basement area in The Castle that has never been open to the public before. We are very excited that the management of The Castle is having us for their premiere event in this new space!

This is a strict dress code affair and will be an exclusive area for our crowd. We will also take over an open-air porch area.

If you are not familiar with this space, it is a fully-equipped dungeon by design. The space features side-by-side cages, a chain spiderweb, a St. Christopher bondage cross, Ol' Sparky replica electric chair and more! This space is really decked out and we are very excited about playing there! There is equipment permanently installed in this area that you may feel free to use and enjoy.

This is a small space and therefore capacity will be limited to 200-250 people. We will have a very strict fetish dress code for this event and will not make any exceptions! This is fetish high-fashion only so dress the part or be stuck on the outside looking in! No cameras or cameraphones will be allowed inside this event!

Friday's event will include fetish performances by Ruby Luster & Rebecca's Rubber Room. We have invited our Saturday night performers including Emily Marilyn, Darenzia, and Angela Ryan and other fetish model friends to attend this event. Some performers will be on hand to party with us on Friday, but will be performing instead on Saturday.

Our "Fetish Lounge" will have a chilled-out lounge vibe so that you can socialize without having to scream over the music. Friday's event will be DJ'd by Alter Ego stalwort Danny Bled.

The Castle is possibly the most famous nightclubs in the heart of Ybor City. The Castle is two blocks north of the main drag of 7th so it is generally a comfortable distance from the vanilla masses of Ybor. For this reason, The Castle has been a stalwart mecca in the Tampa area for real alternative music and alternatively-minded crowds for decades.

There are inexpensive pay parking lots and a parking garage both located in the vicinity to the club. There is a good amount of cheap parking available on the green and at the church across the street from the club especially if you come out early. The nearby parking lots tend to fill up and parking close to the venue becomes more difficult the later you come out.
