Seattle Erotic Art Festival 2021

The Seattle Erotic art Festival is an experience unlike any other festival or gallery you have likely ever attended.  Over the course of three days, a curated selection of some of the finest erotic art the world has to offer will grace the floors of the Seattle Center's Exhibition Hall, awaiting your perusal and enjoyment.

This year, we are very excited to celebrate Halloween with you Sunday evening party with a futuristic themed costume party, CYBEROTICA.

During regular festival hours, you are invited to view the art and daily entertainments, from poetry readings to dance to acrobatic displays.  There is also the Festival Store, where you can often find prints by the artists featured in the festival as well as other unique items and annual Seattle Erotic Art Festival merchandise. In the evenings, the vibe changes from a gallery to sexy art party. The Late Night Festival is a sexy, fun time with performers, DJs, bartenders at the ready, and a fantastically energetic crowd.

The Festival art will engage you, titillate you, and make you think.  Not every piece is to everyone’s tastes, but there is something there that will speak to you – and what doesn’t can lead to some fascinating conversations. Whether you are joining us for the first time and new to the sex positive community, or have attended these events for years – this festival is for you.

More information about artists and schedules will be available at SeattleErotic.org and will updated regularly.

SEAF & COVID-19 Info

Starting October 25, King County will require that attendees at indoor entertainment establishments, including festivals like SEAF, will require attendees to show proof of vaccination or a negative COVID test. This policy is similar to efforts recently enacted in Jefferson and Clallam Counties, and aims to prevent cases and hospitalizations from rising and causing additional state restrictions such as business or large event capacity. Learn more at King County Public Health.

Due to the CDC guidelines for the Exhibition Hall, attendance is capped at 1111 people. This means that we will be at 60% of our normal capacity during the Festival. We will be closely monitoring the number of people in the venue throughout each evening. If you wait to purchase your ticket at the door, you may have to wait to enter the building.

We ask that all attendees self-evaluate prior to coming to the show in order to protect others at the event. If you are experiencing COVID-19 symptoms, or have been in close contact with someone who has had COVID-19 in the 14 days prior to the event, please do not enter the Festival.

If you have any questions about how we are implementing this new King County Public Health Policy, you can read more on our "SEAF & Covid Info" page or contact director@seattleerotic.org.
