cuddlefest
Group hugging session
A cuddlefest is an extended session of affectionate physical closeness—hugging, snuggling, or holding each other.
The word playfully elevates casual cuddling to an event: The movie night turned into a cuddlefest on the couch.
It can describe group situations or intimate moments between two people, always implying warmth and comfort rather than sexual activity.
