'Sex parties' are booming—some cost up to $250,000 at exclusive clubs

Sex parties hosted at exclusive clubs are on the rise, especially among the wealthy. These aren’t house parties—guests pay up to $250,000 for elite memberships in spots like Snctm and KNKY Rabbit, where they indulge in erotic performances, burlesque, and kink. Some just want to participate in the “performance of eroticism,” while for others in the scene, it’s about finding “adventurous” joy in a society of excess.
