One Night Only! Doors open at 7pm, screening begins at 8pm - come early to grab drinks, participate in HUMP!-themed games, win prizes, and more. 

Pupusa is your favorite Seattle based Salvadorian drag performer, latin snack and synthpop princess. She has electrified spaces and entertained the masses with her perfect blend of Miami party girl energy, unbeatable makeup skills, and y2k raver girl aesthetic. You can find her at her monthly shows "It Girl" at Unicorn and "Press Play" at Queer/Bar, and all around the city giving you high energy performances every time she hits the stage.

The LumberYard Bar, located in White Center, proudly serves as a safe and welcoming space for the LGBTQ+ community and allies alike. As the first gay bar in White Center, The LumberYard Bar opened its doors in 2018 with a mission to create more than just a nightlife venue — building a community center where everyone can belong. Through a wide variety of events, from drag shows to dance parties and lively underwear nights, they strive to offer something for everyone, fostering connection, celebration, and fun.

On July 4th, 2021, the space was tragically destroyed in a hate-driven fire. But their spirit remained unbreakable. Thanks to the strength of the community and the love surrounding them, they proudly reopened on November 5th, 2022, stronger and more committed than ever to being a beacon of love, resilience, and inclusion.

“Here, everyone is welcome. Here, you are home.”

Q: I've never been to HUMP! before...can you tell me more about it?
A: Dan Savage's HUMP! – the world's best indie erotic film fest – is adult entertainment by real people for real people. Every year, hot, creative, and kinky bite-sized shorts (no film is longer than 5 minutes) are submitted by creators from around the world, and the HUMP! Jury selects the best of the best to create joyful, sex-positive, and inclusive feature-length lineups.

Q: So...I'm going to watch adult films in a theater full of strangers?
A: These aren't your typical adult films! HUMP! takes pride in celebrating all body types, shapes, ages, colors, sexualities, genders, kinks, and fetishes, and these insanely creative, independently-made shorts often redefine the adult genre. You'll see things you'd never see sitting at home, and you'll immediately find yourself cheering, clapping, and laughing along with the crowd!

Our 20 year mission of creating a public space for sex-positivity, representation, and inclusivity is feeling more important than ever, but we’re up for the challenge and we know you are, too! And when you purchase a ticket to HUMP!, you’re supporting ethical content creation – in addition to being eligible for up to $10,000 in audience and jury awards, filmmakers receive a percentage of every ticket sold.

*This lineup of films screened at On The Boards in Seattle, 2/15 - 3/15/25. Not sure if you've already seen these films? Check out the trailer & film lineup at humpfilmfest.com!
