Welcome to the NEST Gathering; the world’s largest, and longest-running, inclusive tickling gathering!

Always held the first weekend of May, NEST (the North East Society of Ticklephiles) started in 1997 as a gathering of 8 people. After running every year (save for 2020 and 2021 for pandemic reasons), we are now a gathering of 200+! Under new organization as of 2025, we strive to bring the tickling community together in the Northeastern United States to be able to meet each other, enjoy the weekend, and celebrate our shared love of this amazing kink.
