Saw a few posts here asking about what Pighaus is like. I was also curious for years and couldn't find any information so I went to one. Here's is my little review of the Pighaus party!

What is Pighaus?

Mysterious gay bareback party in NYC. Held on random days in random places. The locations are secret. No weekly schedule or venue. They release schedules for the season and then send invites. To get on the invite list you send them all your info and pics. They probably screen you for body type and vibe? It's all bareback, no condoms allowed.

Pighaus is supposed to be "different" and more exclusive than other sex parties. It's supposed to be wilder. They basically have 3 types of parties: The bathhouse one held in a secret bathhouse space open to anyone on the invite list, the sperm bank which is their version of the horse market party where bottoms get blindfolded and tops can f*ck whoever they want anonymously, but you have to apply and be accepted as a t0p or b0ttom, and then regular sex parties sometimes with different crazy themes like anonymous/completely hooded that anybody on the list can attend. They also have one big party every year called breedfest where you have to apply to be accepted even if you're on their list. Their parties are supposedly strictly about sex, so talking in the sex area is "banned." They also give you glow sticks where each color represents t0p, b0ttom, or verse, so you don't have to talk to know what people want. They also invite a bunch of OnlyFans and porn stars to show up (probably pay them). So there's always at least 20 popular sex workers and onlyfans guys there.

Pighaus tickets are expensive because it's supposed to be wild and exclusive. They usually charge about $70 for their regular parties, but it varies based on the venue. Most are like $100 .

Is it worth it?

I been eyeing pighaus for a bit on twitter. I finally decide to go to one of their regular parties. I've been to other parties like GBU and SCUM, pretty much tried them all, so I'm thinking Pighaus is going to be bigger and better. My biggest issue with other parties is too many vanilla guys just standing around and posing or get really picky or only want one specific type. You get that circuit party crowd that are just jaded and mechanical. I was hoping Pighaus would be balls to walls raw, unabashed sweaty nonstop sex since they ban talking and their promos emphasize nasty, sleazy raw sex. Their emails for the party kept emphasizing "piggy" and "the musk" just to give an idea of the vibe they're trying to sell.

The night I went was supposed to be 2 parties back to back. One was a regular sex party and the second was supposed to be completely anonymous, hooded and dark. Separately they were about $70 each but if you got a combined ticket it was $99. They also made us pay $40 at the door for 3 drink tickets at the bar (which they told us about ahead of time). So I paid $140 for this party.

Basically the party didn't live up to the hype and wasn't worth it at all. I got there and it's basically the GBU party. The exact same vibe and the exact same crowd, but like 3 times the price, lol. A lot of guys there I've seen at GBU and other parties. The age range was the same too, 20s and 30s. Not a lot of older guys but a few. That was disappointing because guys in their 30s and 40s tend to be less inhibited and finicky, in my humble opinion. They tend not to be as picky, cliquey and showboaty as the younger circuit/GBU crowd. I think more hot guys in their 30s, 40s, even some 50s would have made it more fun.

The party was in an undisclosed location in Brooklyn, basically a club, with a huge dance lounge area they set up with couches and slings. There was a lot of smoke from smoke machines that you could hardly see sometimes. There had to be almost 200 people total who showed up (because I was #100 something when I showed up), but maybe about 75 there at once at any given time. There was a really good mix of tops, bottoms and vers. In theory everybody should have had someone to to bang at all times, but there were way too many hot bottoms not getting f*cked and way too many tops just standing and walking around. Don't get me wrong, there was f*cking but there was also way too much standing and posing and being finicky. Really hot bottoms everywhere just being ignored by all the tops and verse walking around. Mind you this party was a 2 part party where the second part was supposed to be completely dark and anonymous so I'm thinking guys would have less barriers and not be as picky if it's dark and hooded. By "picky" I mean some guys clearly had one specific type they were looking for. But it wasn't the uninhibited sleazy fuckfest I had in mind. It's just cruising and if you don't find what you like you just stand there or keep walking around.

Attendees were mostly white and Latino, some Asian and a few black guys. Almost all the black guys were tops. Not a good party if you're a black b0ttom. The one or two black bottoms I saw looked like they were struggling. There was a couch with bottoms lined up with asses in the air and a couple guys f*ck all of them except skipped over the black bottoms, even the black tops were doing this which was sad. Like other parties there were a handful of tops and bottoms who got a lot of back to back action. Everyone else was just kind of standing or wandering around or waiting to be approached. Eventually you'd find someone do your thing and go back to standing around.

The second part of the party, which cost the same as the first part if you bought the ticket separately, was a bust. First of all they made us buy a ticket and didn't even check them. When it was time to start the next party, they just turned down the lights, turned up the smoke machine and handed out the masks. About half didn't even wear them. Most of the guys were the same guys from before so we all knew who each other were anyway. And the anon vibe didn't really change the picky vibe or the energy level. It was the opposite. About an hour in, the party started to die down. Not a lot of new guys showed up. It was supposed to be from 2-5, but by 3:30 the party was basically over. They didn't care about who actually bought the ticket. I could have gotten one ticket and stayed the whole night.

There were also a bunch of other sloppy management things that happened that could be more the venue than Pighaus, but really made the price seem not worth the drama. The first party is already short, like 4 hours, but we had to wait almost 40 minutes in line in the cold because they were only letting 5 people check in at a time and the check in girls (yeah the check and bar was staffed by women) were really slow. The line was slow because they had no idea how many people were lined up outside and were taking their time, and they kept collecting the money for the $40 drink minimum, which should have just been included in the ticket!

For a $140 all night sex party you'd think they'd have a basic necessities like free tap water in a cup, but they would not give out cups of water. You had to use one of the 3 drink tickets for one bottle. So one bottle of water was the same as a drink. If you paid cash it was $5. Kind of rude in my opinion. A cup of water for simple hydration at a sex party is just like a basic courtesy. Even GBU and SCUM have free water and GBU has free alcohol included in the ticket! I asked for a cup of water because I needed to take medication and just needed a swallow, but they said I had to use a whole drink ticket for Poland Spring lol. They had lube but didn't tell us where it was. You had to find it in all the smoke. They had bathrooms but no "wipe stations" like advertised, and no mouthwash. Again, GBU and SCUM have all this inclusive.

They make you pick your position glowstick when you sign up but that didn't matter for this party. The check in ladies asked you at the door and gave you whatever you asked for so they ended up running out of b0ttom glow lights by the end of the night and just gave out wrist bands instead which didn't work well especially in the "anonymous" part.

As for the no talking rule. Not enforced or respected at all, at all. Guys who came in groups still huddled up in their circles and would have loud conversations and drinks all over the space. Just guys chit chatting everywhere instead of f*cking, kind of killing the mood and defeating the purpose. I sort don't blame them because the official social area was freezing.

As for the OnlyFans guys, they blended in with everyone else. If you didn't know exactly who they were you wouldn't notice. None of them really stood out or looked like their photoshopped content. They look more real in person. Most I could recognize were there for a couple hours before they disappeared. I recognized a few when I got there but stopped seeing them about 2 hours later.

The party ended way too early. Was supposed to go up to 5, but was by 3:30. Even at 3 it was like half the amount that was there at 2.

Nothing wrong with a lot of this stuff but, what's the point of the upcharge? This party was just like any other one that's $30, probably worse in some points of view. It wasn't bigger, better, wilder, more sexual or piggy than anything you can pay $30 for at GBU or SCUM. I've seen wilder things for FREE in the Rambles than this. Plus you had to pay for alcohol and water. As for me, I got about the same fill as I would have had I gone to any other party. It was no different. Guess it's all in the marketing. T I can't think of one single thing that made this party any better than any of the other ones. Same energy, same vibe, same people. Not worth $140!! They definitely try to make it work with things like the no talking rule, glow sticks, piggy theme and other gimmicks, but they aren't attracting the right people who respect that. It's too many younger circuit party boys who bring a conflicting vibe, in my opinion. The party i went to wasn't really the raunchy pig crowd.

I can't speak to their bathhouse and sperm bank parties. Maybe those are better (doubt it), but I wouldn't pay more than $40 to go to their regular ones. Go to one of the other parties in the city. It's the exact same thing.
