About
Woodland is more than an event — it’s an invitation into a curated space where connection, freedom, and shared male experience come first. Held multiple times throughout the year, Woodland is a private, men-only, naked gathering that celebrates comfort in your own skin, meaningful conversation, and uninhibited camaraderie.
Each event is intentionally designed to feel safe, warm, and unpretentious — a night that trades pretense for presence. From the vibes and sensual energy to the amenities and selective guest list, Woodland is about showing up as you are, letting go of social constraints, and discovering what unfolds when real people gather in a real space.
Whether you’re a regular or arriving for the first time, Woodland is a place to drop your guard, embrace the moment, and meet others doing the same.
FAQ
What is the cost?
While building our community and making our local gay scene more fun is our reward, we require a minimum donation of $50 to secure your spot and help cover the expenses of each event, early bird discounts and other promotions may be offered at times. Woodland events feature a staffed open bar, a staffed clothes check, event ushers, a snack bar, fully equipped play areas and other amenities. Donations help us keep Woodland going and growing.
When is it?
Woodland meets five times per year. We host quarterly events, one per season: Winter, Spring, Summer and Fall. In addition, we host a special PRIDE event which takes place during the weekend of Pittsburgh Pride.
How's the crowd?
While we foster a diverse community in age and race; good physical appearance, male anatomy, fitness, and masculinity are celebrated and prioritized when vetting our guests. But most importantly, to ensure the right atmosphere, everyone invited is welcoming and friendly.
Where is it?
In Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. This event takes place at a private residence. Therefore, the hosts curate every detail of the experience and reserve the right of admission.
What's the age requirement?
All guests must be 21 years or older. Government-issued ID will be required to allow access.
Who's attending?
In respect of everyone’s privacy, we will never disclose who comes to our events. If a person submits a member application and/or is following the Instagram page, it does not mean that person has been or will be invited.
Are there safety protocols?
All approved members must complete a one-time eSignature WAIVER AND LIABILITY RELEASE FORM. This waiver will remain valid for all future events ensuring that each guest voluntarily assumes all of the risks of participation during and after the event.
How do I get invited?
In order to be considered you must fill out a WOODLAND MEMBER APPLICATION and include a public Instagram handle with clear recent pictures of yourself. If you do not have a public Instagram account or one with recent clear pictures of yourself in it, you will be asked to submit pictures via email for further consideration.
If approved, you will be asked to sign a WAIVER AND LIABILITY RELEASE FORM. Once we receive the signed document you will start receiving formal invitations.
Can I take pictures?
No. Pictures and videos are not allowed. To ensure the integrity of the event and our guests’ privacy we require phones to be kept with your checked belongings, unless being used to scan QR codes or to exchange contact information with other guests outside of any common areas. Any photos or content from the events are handled by the event management in a designated area.
What's the dress code?
CLOTHES OFF! You cannot keep underwear on. Full nudity is a defining aspect of the experience, no exceptions. We believe that when the clothes come off, the “walls” come down. Stepping outside of our comfort zone enables us to connect with others.
What if I'm nervous?
It is normal to feel anxious before any event. Remember, everyone is focused on themselves, and no one is judging you. We are all here to have fun! Visualize a positive outcome to shift your mindset towards excitement instead of worry.
What if I know someone?
Smile and laugh about it. You are both mature adults in the same place enjoying the same activities. There is no space for judgment and no need to make it awkward.
Can I bring a guest?
All guests must go through the same vetting process and be approved to be on site. If you wish to share the experience, your friend must submit a member form for consideration prior to the event. Ask hosts directly if they can expedite the process.
Is play required?
Playing with other guests is an option but is not required or expected. Any physical contact must come from mutual CONSENT. Anyone who does not follow the basic rules of CONSENT will be forced to leave and excluded from all future events.


No clothes. No shame.
Just energy, realness, and hedonism.
This is Woodland.
