PiP History

History:

Pandemonium in the Prairies was launched by AWAKENS – A Women’s Association for Kinky Education & Networking Saskatoon. AWAKENS purpose was to provide a platform for learning, discussion and support for kinky women who have a positive personal interest in BDSM/Kink/Leather. AWAKENS discussion group met every other week to share ideas, discuss specific topics, be creative, get support and have fellowship among kinky women.

Pandemonium in the Prairies ran as a single day kink event in 2018 and was open to all genders. In 2019, PiP ran as a full weekend event designed to highlight women and trans speakers, with registration available to all genders. Unfortunately, 2020 and 2021 conference offerings were put on hold due to Covid-19. During this time, the organizing group for PiP decided to refocus solely on running Pandemonium in the Prairies and AWAKENS officially closed in late 2021. In 2022, organizers were able to run a ‘mini-con’, a slightly scaled back version of Pandemonium in the Prairies with a focus on prairie speakers and reconnecting with one anothers.
