Data nerds unite! I’ll start my series of posts about GASP 2026 with some data about who attended (without revealing anyone’s personal information):

• Total number of attendees: 393
  • More than 400 tickets were sold, but some folks deferred to 2027 due to illness.
• Attendees by orientation (tickets sold):
  • Bottoms: 133
  • Switches: 134
  • Tops: 134
• Where did you come from?
  • Georgia: 95
  • California: 23
  • Florida: 22
  • North Carolina: 21
  • Texas: 19
  • Ohio and Tennessee: 18 apiece
  • New York: 17
  • South Carolina: 16
  • Other states: 15 or fewer
  • Plus, 11 from Europe (mostly the UK), 6 from Canada, and 2 from other countries

To put it into perspective, last year we had 315 people, and our first year we had about 270. So we’re growing quickly and drawing in spankos from all over the US and abroad. And if you thought 2026 was great, just wait until you see what we have in store for 2027; it’ll knock your socks off! (And if you’re not wearing socks, well… put some on so we can knock them off!) More announcements about 2027 coming this June!
