The focus is on the community for this event. While out-of-town guests are certainly welcome, we realized that the heart and soul of what we do is in the people who are around us every day. This is an event for the Colorado rope community, by the Colorado rope community.

This con will be more of a retreat in that there will be a small group of us around each other for the entire weekend. The focus is rope education, socialization, and play.

You need to be 18 or older. It is suggested that you have a basic working knowledge of rope bondage as we will not be holding entry level classes. If you're new to this and you want to attend, please take the beginner courses offered at Studio Friction, Denver Bound, or Denver Rope Bite to make the most of your con experience.

Rope in the Rockies is about community, specifically about building relationships in the rope community. This is why you see things here that aren't at other cons such as shared meal time, local instructors, and a rope-dedicated venue.

Target start time is noon on Friday and ending after the party on Sunday night.

Breakfast and lunch are included; dinner is not. We encourage people to go out to some of the awesome local restaurants in the neighborhood for dinner. We will have a list of restaurants on our website as we get closer to the con.

For those of you with dietary restrictions, there is a place to specify your needs on the registration form.

First of all, thank you for taking care of yourself! One of the biggest mistakes people make is getting caught up in trying to do everything that they forget to have a good time. When you need a little down time, we will have a quiet space set up for folks to disengage for as long as they need.

Unlike most cities, Denver has its own rope studio and it's large enough to hold a small con.

Cell phone cameras are allowed during the workshops for the purposes of checking schedules and taking notes. We require prenegotiated verbal consent from everyone in the photo.

We are very strict about this! It is important to note that we reserve the right to go through your phone to ensure you didn't accidentally capture someone in a photo without their consent.

Professional cameras are allowed in the photography area and during photography workshops.

Photos are not allowed in the main play space during the parties.

We're working on it, but it might not happen. Our first priority is to ensure a quality experience for everyone and we have space considerations. If we can find a way to make it work, we'll do it.

At this time we are unsure if we will be selling tickets to the parties only. Any available tickets will be sold through StudioFriction.com.

We determined that for the most part the value isn't there and that they don't work well teaching 90 minute con style classes. When you look at the cost of transportation, flights, translators, and teaching fees, it can run in excess of $5000 (and sometimes a lot more).

Yes, so long as you're within operating hours.
