Chunky Dunks are an annual summer series of fat-positive group swims. Organizers rent public pools and offer up a focused and intentional space where all bodies are respected.

“We know it can be daunting to put on a suit and swim in public. We’re not going to let anything stop us, or you, from enjoying a refreshing summer cool-down!” 

The June 22nd, Chunky Dunks PDX happens at 6:15pm. Get the deets on the Chunky Dunks PDX Event Page.  HOT SUN. COOL WATER. NO SHAME.

Atlanta, Georgia

The fifth annual Swim Thick Pool Party, welcomes women and men to come celebrate plus size bodies. This end of summer event, promises a day of fun and excitement with live music, drinks, and food vendors.

A part of the Swim Thick weekend, there is also a lingerie/black tie party the following night.  The annual pool party is taking place August 17th, at one of Atlanta’s most illustrious private locations, hosted by Diva Kurves Collection.

 

Philadelphia Curve Weekend: Swim Soiree

West Berlin, NJ

Philadelphia Curve Weekend Swim Soiree

Back for its 4th year, the Swim Soiree takes place during Philadelphia Curve Weekend, August 2nd – 4th.

Instead of a pool, they are leveling things up with an entire water park! This Night glow party will include music, foam machine, dancing, and loads of slipping and sliding.

Join them at the Sahara Sams for their marquee event. Details on their website here. 
 

This summer we are committed to living our best lives by breaking stereotypes and shredding inhibitions surrounding the plus size body.
