Kink Down South Weekend is more than just an event—it’s a celebration of community, connection, and kink culture in the South. And it wouldn’t be possible without our incredible team of volunteers who help bring it all to life. Volunteering is a great way to give back, meet new people, and experience the event from a whole new perspective—all while having a great time! Whether you’re a returning volunteer or new to KDS, there’s a role for you. Volunteers who work 8 hours or more get their All-Access Pass fully refunded. Partial refunds are also available for those who work a minimum of 4 hours. We have roles for everyone – if you want to volunteer but need any type of accommodation, please go ahead and apply, and email us directly.

Kink Down South wouldn’t exist without one incredible person who first believed in our idea to build a new type of Gear Event and spark life back into Atlanta’s kink scene after the pandemic. Thank you, Jay “Mother” Malloy, for believing in us and giving us a home when we had none. We are proud to offer the Jay “Mother” Malloy Equity Scholarship to provide access to the event for people who would otherwise be unable to attend without financial support.
