There’s a new spanking party coming to Atlanta (where I live) next March. It’s called GASP, the Georgia Spanking Party, and it looks like it’ll be super fun. For those who can’t make it out to Texas, Chicago, Las Vegas, Los Angeles, or New York, maybe this one will be more convenient for you. I definitely bought my ticket already, and booked my hotel room. I’ll also be vending my books (and maybe some toys that Partner 1 makes) at their vendor fair, and yes, if you buy a book (or even just bring one that you already bought previously) I’ll sign it for you.

However, as often happens with spanking parties, prices tend to go up the closer you get to the event. I ended up paying $180 for my ticket, but as of yesterday prices went up to $190. In these tough economic times, ten bucks is ten bucks. Now you have until the end of October to get a ticket before the prices go up again.

Look, I get it: March is still several months away. It can be hard to plan that far ahead. But by the same token, the earlier you put in your PTO request at work, the more likely it’ll be approved — especially since this party doesn’t correspond with any school holidays that your coworkers who are parents might want to take off. Flights should be relatively inexpensive as well — Delta and Southwest both have hubs in Atlanta, and you can get a nonstop there from most (but not all) places.

I also understand that spanking parties can be expensive — airfare or other travel costs (if you plan to drive, for example), hotel rooms, party tickets, food while you’re there, souvenirs, vendor fair items, and the other sundry costs that come with going to a weekend-long spanking party… it all adds up. But this is the first time a spanking party of this nature has come to Georgia, and other than Sandcastle it’s the only one currently in the southeast. You owe it to yourself to at least check it out.

Is this an ad? Not really. I honestly want GASP to do well so that it happens again in 2025, and 2026, and every year after that. It’s going to take your help to get there, so if you think a spanking party that has open play spaces, a dungeon, a vendor fair, two included meals, classes, and role-play events sounds fun to you, take a look at their website and consider purchasing a ticket. As someone who’s gone to lots of spanking parties, I can guarantee that you’ll have a good time.
