Sometimes CHS is a little premature. We told you all about Babeland’s 20 years of business on E Pike earlier this year:
“Capitol Hill in 1993 was the hub of emerging Seattle culture,” says Rachel Venning, Babeland’s co-founder. “The neighborhood was packed with gay people, musicians artists, and creative people of all stripes. It was a great place to start a business that was based on a new concept: sex toys for women.”

The big 20th birthday party comes later this month:
Babeland’s 20th Anniversary Party http://20yearssextoys.eventbrite.com/ Thursday, September 19, 7-10pm
Babeland has been selling sex toys since 1993 and it’s time to celebrate! Join Rachel Venning and Claire Cavanah, co-founders of Babeland, and a host of local sexlebrities for a night of entertainment, food, prizes and revelry. The Babeland Vulva will be dishing out our top sex tips and posing for photos all night. There will be gifts for the first 50 guests and one lucky attendee will win a $250 gift bag of Babeland’s Best Sex Toys! All events and workshops listed here: http://babelandseattle.eventbrite.com/ Babeland’s Best Collection: http://www.babeland.com/babelands-best/l/227
In the meantime, it’s not a bad time to do some shopping:
Twenty years on Capitol Hill! To say “Thank you” to Seattle, Babeland has an exciting month-long celebration planned for September. We invite everyone to join us for free events with sex tips and giveaways and a big party on September 19th. During the entire month, we’ll be giving away one prize every day from our Babeland’s Best Collection, our top twenty game-changing toys, with a drawing for a winner who will receive the entire collection, valued at $1,600. We’ve rolled back ticket prices to 1993 levels, too, and everyone can attend one of our popular two-hour workshops for only $10 instead of $35.
