CHICAGO — Pleasure Chest Chicago and Early to Bed, local sponsors for the upcoming film event CineKink: Chicago, have announced ticket giveaway contests that will run through Sept. 20. Together, they will be offering winners a total of eight pairs of tickets.

Early to Bed is giving away tickets through their blog, which ends Sept. 19. Contest participants have a chance to win one of four prizes: two pairs of tickets for the 7 p.m. “Best of CineKink” screening and two pairs of tickets for the 9 p.m. “Remedy” feature film following the shorts compilation.

"Chicago can always use a good dose of sexiness and CineKink is a great way to see some quality, kinky films in the company of like-minded folk,” Early To Bed owner Searah Deysach said. "Early to Bed has been a long time supporter of CineKink because we know we can count on them for smart, erotic films — which is something you can never have too many of."

Chicago residents can win a pair of tickets to the “Best of Cinekink” screening Pleasure Chest Chicago's blog; a second pair will be available through an instore drawing, which runs Sept. 13-15. In addition, a pair of tickets to “Remedy” can be won through its Twitter page; another pair will be offered at the store’s Performance Anxiety comedy night Sept. 16.

“The Pleasure Chest is excited to welcome CineKink back to Chicago,” said Sarah Sloane, Pleasure Chest Chicago store manager. “For ten years, CineKink has given a voice to filmmakers exploring the outer realms of sexuality. As a company that works to empower our customers in their pursuit of their sexual pleasure and growth, we are proud to support CineKink’s film festival and thrilled to offer our customers and social media followers the chance to win complimentary tickets to the show.”

Those attending the screenings will also be eligible to win raffle prizes provided by the two sponsors. An Early to Bed prize pack, which includes a $50 gift certificate, will be raffled off at the end of the “Best of CineKink” show. A $50 Pleasure Chest gift certificate and a bottle of champagne will be given away following “Remedy.”  

“Our sponsors have always gone above and beyond to assist us in promoting our events,” said Lisa Vandever, CineKink co-founder and director. “It’s particularly heartwarming when local sex-positive sponsors, such as The Pleasure Chest Chicago and Early to Bed, offer tickets and raffle prizes when our tour brings us to their cities.”
