Wow. I didn’t expect this. Not only was HustlaBall Berlin incredible, but it was held at Kit Kat Club, and that place is spectacular.
But that’s not how this story begins. The day before the Ball, I picked up the weekend program, and it describes itself as a circuit party. And if you’re from LA, you know that “circuit” means it’s just a bunch of WeHo (West Hollywood) queens that love to be bitchy.
It made me regret buying a ticket. So, I was not looking forward to it. If you’re familiar with the WeHo queen type, then you’re aware they actively discriminate against people of color and guys that aren’t ripped or hung. So I was prepared for the worst of times.
Also, Rasmus (AKA the Three-Legged-Beast), my partner in crime, left the trip early, but it was probably for the better. Because his cock would have drenched people’s faces all night until he passed out.
So on the evening of the HustlaBall Berlin, I decided that this was just work. I would check it out for the blog and report back. I still want people to know what to expect and if it’s worth it.

Should You Get to HustlaBall Berlin Early?
A couple of weeks ago, I stood in line at Laboratory for their monthly Lab Dance. I got there 30 minutes after the doors opened, and I waited about three hours and finally gave up and called it a night.
So for HustlaBall, even though I had already purchased a ticket, I got there 45 minutes before their doors opened. So, yes, get to HustlaBall early so you can get in early.
As I arrived, the line was already around the corner. I had plan B in case I was to wait 2 hours again.
But as the doors opened, everyone got in right away.
They had things down. They knew what they were doing.
How Much Are Tickets and Where to Get Them?
I usually put all of this information in my Gay Travel Guides but for Hustlaball head to their website for ticket information. Tickets usually go on sale a couple of months before October.
There are many tickets for sale. HustlaBall weekend consists of multiple parties throughout the weekend. So, you can purchase an overall VIP ticket that includes most of the parties, not including a few parties that might blow your mind, but that will go in the Update Gay Guide.
Ticket cost for Reborn Decadance was 38 Euros. But once you enter, they give you discounts for their other parties.

HustlaBall Berlin Reborn Decadance Review
The Kit Kat Club is considered a sex club. But if that’s the case, then every club in Berlin is a sex club. Can you have sex here? Yes, of course. But you can have sex in many bars and clubs in this wonderful city. Berlin is a place of freedom, unlike any place I’ve ever been before.
This experience is intertwined. I’ve wanted to see the Kit Kat Club for so long, and I finally did. But it also made my HustlaBall experience.
So, where do I begin?
I guess we can start at the beginning.
Entering Kit Kat Club
The line was around the block. However, I was closer to the front, so that’s a good sign.
As they opened the doors, they made sure we all had tickets in hand.
After we enter the club through Kit Kats courtyard, they explain.
- Scan the ticket.
- Go to the clothes check on the left.
The Clothes Check
I proceed to clothes check, and I’m confused. It’s my first time. But it seems many others are also confused.
There are bins of hangers, lots of wooden hangers.
I take off my clothes and neatly hang my coats, pants, shirt, and everything.
I ask the naked guy closest to me what to do next, and he nicely tells me to take it to the tables further inside the clothes check.
I stayed in my new Maskulo jockstrap shoes and socks.
The clothes check workers were a group of young, attractive half-naked guys and girls.
Tits out, balls out, you name it, they were dressed to show it all off.
They take my clothes and give me a number inside a little ziplock baggie. I use it to store the rest of my cash and place it in my sock since I’m practically naked.
Then I go back to the entrance, and get patted down by security.
I entered the club and decided I wanted to see it all. I’m one of the first to enter, so I have free range.
The place is MASSIVE! I didn’t expect this. And I was more impressed by this venue than Lab. And Lab is pretty impressive.
Kit Kat Club Venue
Kit Kat is so big that giving you a sense of the layout is hard. (I embedded an Instagram reel of the club below, Which gives you a slight sense of the place.) But I’ll look for other images online since I didn’t keep my phone on me. No pockets mean I’ll lose it. I’m forgetful like that.
At the entrance, there’s what seems to be a phone check. But I placed my phone with the rest of my clothes, so I’m not entirely sure if that’s what it was.
The Main Floor
There’s a main room that connects all parts of the club. It has round tables and seating arrangements. This room is connected to restrooms via hallways, two bars, and the biggest dancefloor.
The smaller bar was decorated like a creepy hoarder’s house: dilapidated doll parts, weird trinkets on chandeliers, and dark wallpaper. Every inch was covered in something. It’s all intentionally placed and great to look at.
The bigger bar didn’t have as much character as this one does. But it opens into a pool area.
The Pool Area
The pool area has a row of cabanas. A steam room lies at the end of it.
Many guys took their cabanas and relaxed here.
I didn’t see anyone get in the pool, though. I also didn’t see anyone fucking here either, although I’m sure you can.
The Main Dancefloor
The main dance floor is huge. The stage is here. They played mostly techno.
If you walked to the left of the dancefloor, there was a VIP loft with a sling.
Under the loft was a play space, but it was open and didn’t really feel inviting for playing with others. But some did anyway (which is great.)
A few trios gathered to split-roast their partners while others watched and jacked off. But this wasn’t the sexiest place at Kit Kat Club.
The Dragon Room
If you walk the opposite way, you make it to the Dragon Room.
They played mostly deep, dark industrial here. It was my favorite room since that’s what I’m into.
There’s a dragon on the wall made out of skeleton remains, or perhaps steampunked inspired. And during the peak of the night, it began breathing fire. Actual fire! It was insane.
This room also has a loft area. It was almost pitch black, and most of the loft consisted of leather cushiony ottomans and couches.
This room was always packed with guys getting it on at all times of the night right from the get-go.
It made me wonder if there were other areas where men could play. So I decided to keep looking.
The Basement
The Dragon Room has its own set of restrooms. And next to the toilets was a creepy-looking staircase leading to a basement level.
Another DJ played here. There’s also another bar. This area was never busy, so when the two floors above got too packed, it was easy to come down here because the exit of this basement portion led you behind the main dancefloor that led you back to the central room that connects everything.
Berlin does creepy and gritty correctly. The staircase exit looks like it used to be outdoors at one point. But it was made of concrete stairs, graffiti, and just the right amount of filth. It was a place where, if this were a nightmare, you’d surely be murdered before exiting (but that’s just my horror movie-filled mind talking). It was atmospheric, to say the least.
The Catacombs
The basement also consisted of another completely unconnected portion of tunnels, bars, and dance floors they called The Catacombs.
That’s because it’s lined with red brick walls and arches one can play in.
Some portions of the walls had skeletons inside of them, while others were lined with leather couches where you could get it on freely. The red light throughout the catacombs made for an erotic yet somewhat creepy vibe.
The fellatio room was my favorite. I call it the fellatio room because it was at knee level, so it was easiest to crawl into. Guys stood here, waiting for someone on their knees.
As you zig-zagged your way further into the earth, you saw slings, operating tables, gynecological chairs, and benches.
It was a fuck-me-before-we-both-get-killed-by-the-killer vibe, and I loved it. It felt horror movie inspired a la Friday the 13th or something.
But once the venue filled up, it was fair game. It was on. The party exploded like a pent-up geyser.
The Men at HustlaBall Berlin and What to Expect
As expected, the HustlaBall attracted some very ripped and very hung men. Some of these men were only about hooking up with hot guys. But that was a minor fraction of what you should expect.
It was a mixed crowd—all shapes and sizes. But I do believe there were a lot of German tourists that attended. Regardless, the vibe was great. It was a nice party vibe that allowed many to play with each other as long as you enjoyed yourself. This means many were getting it on with each other.
I saw very few people of color, but we were there!
I also ran into some of my favorite naughty Instagrammers! It’s always a joy to meet them, especially when they’re awesome.
My favorite place at Kit Kat Club is the catacombs.
The next best place was the Dragon Room. The loft area was filled with ottomans and leather sofas, so you could enjoy a nice blog job. It was also dark enough so people could enjoy themselves better.
At one point, I saw a guy take on multiple big studs. They lined up and took turns on him, and he took it without flinching.
The crowd here was packed and busy! It was tough getting in and out.
It was a buffet of men so hot, and everyone was enjoying themselves.
Apart from these two places, you can pretty much get it on anywhere in the club. But some preferred darker corners.
The catacombs led to another dance floor and loft area with play spaces and slings to help you get in the mood.
I enjoyed watching and playing here. It did not feel like a circuit party I had originally envisioned. And although there were minor elements of that, most people just wanted to have a good time. And that’s the Berlin I know and love so much.
Here is a YouTube video of their last HustlaBall in 2019
So, What Was My Experience?
It was a blast! All the negative connotations of the word “circuit” were in my head. This is why we must always remain open-minded.
Were there some circuit queens that only wanted to play with hot, white, studs? Yeah. But you can’t win them all.
I had such a fun time at HustlaBall.
And let me just say (and this is not a joke) my jaw has been sore for days now.
To read the full details on what I managed to get up to during the HustlaBall, you’ll have to wait for the updated Berlin Guide! That’s where I reveal it all!

Things to be aware of
It’s not a surprise to hear that people take recreational drugs at events like these. I mean, HustlaBall was pretty much a rave/sex party. So, I wasn’t surprised when a few guys asked me if I had substances to share. I don’t do drugs. Like at all. In fact, I don’t really drink alcohol either. But I just want to make sure and say be careful, don’t be careless, and take care of one another.
One of the Berlin mottos is: Do whatever you want as long as you don’t hurt anyone. And I think this is a good rule to live by.
Let’s break it down:
HustaBall Berlin “Reborn Decadance” 2022 was so much fun. It’s a crazy wild sex rave with a post-apocalyptic feel.
The ticket is only 38 Euros for this particular party. But you can choose to buy a VIP (skip the line) ticket if you want, but it’s more expensive.
You’ll see lots of hot dudes getting it on. Participate in some wild fantasies. Watch a fire-breathing dragon spray the dancefloor with actual fire while you dance to some dark industrial. And perhaps play for so long, your body will ache for days.
Do I recommend HustlaBall Berlin?
HustlaBall Berlin was such a good experience. I recommend it to anyone who loves a little techno, some dark industrial, creepy, and weird settings, and fucking all night long.
You also get to watch porn stars do it on stage. But I preferred playing at the party rather than watching it on stage.
Berlin is a place of freedom and acceptance, and I’m glad it continues to be that way.
My gay Berlin Gay Travel Guide 2024 is now updated with all the stories of what the party was like on the inside.
