lockin
Guarantee a rate
A lockin (or lock-in) is an event where participants stay overnight in a building—typically a school, church, or community center—for activities, games, and socializing: The youth group is having a lockin at the church Friday night.
The name comes from the practice of locking the doors to keep everyone safely inside until morning.
