Pup play and pup gatherings in Montréal

Montréal carries the densest kink scene in the country, and by far the best organised. The Village concentrates the bars and club nights, the Plateau and Villeray the rope studios, the Mile End the workshops. Something happens most evenings, and munches have been the way in for twenty years.

Pup play is animal roleplay. You take on a dog-like headspace, you play, you chase, you end up in a pile on a mat. For a lot of people there is nothing sexual about it, and a gathering looks closer to a dog park than to a night out. They are called moshes.
