Licensed Bar

monthly fetish event (not a fixed-address club)

Club Sin is Montreal's longest-running monthly fetish event, held on the first Friday of each month in the second-floor cabaret of Café Cléopâtre at 1230 boulevard Saint-Laurent, at the edge of the Quartier des Spectacles. The event is organized by Eric Paradis, who has been active in Montreal's fetish scene for more than 35 years and who also produces the annual Montreal Fetish Weekend each Labour Day weekend. Café Cléopâtre — the last surviving show bar from the Main's most notorious era, operating since at least 1976 — provides the venue and a large part of its historical charge as a space that has hosted vaudeville, burlesque, drag, and trans cabaret for well over a century. Club Sin occupies the upstairs cabaret, a room built around a performance stage and a cash-only bar. The event is billed as a night of shows, dance, and play. Paradis has described the crowd as people from different backgrounds and professions who arrive in costume to express their identities as sexual beings; vibe reporting from 2010 documents an audience in black leather and latex alongside staged fetish performances, and a 2024 Concordian piece situates Club Sin as a pillar of Montreal's kink community, which it notes increasingly intersects with queer culture. The median age reported in early coverage was around 30. Café Cléopâtre has long been recognized as a welcoming space for Montreal's LGBTQ+ and trans communities, a character that carries through to Club Sin's programming. The upstairs bar is cash only; an ATM is available on the ground floor, which continues to operate as a strip club on event nights. No published dress code rules are independently accessible, though fetish and kink attire is consistent with the event's established character and organizer framing. Club Sin is distinct in format and scale from the annual Montreal Fetish Weekend, though both share the same producer and have used the same venue.

Purple Mamba Club

West Bridgford, Nottinghamshire

On-Premise Club

Purple Mamba Club is a private members club for adults in West Bridgford, Nottingham, set behind 3-5 Radcliffe Road near Trent Bridge with a discreet rear entrance away from the main road. Operating under its own description as the Midlands' most intimate, exclusive club for liberated adults, it draws a membership predominantly of couples alongside a limited number of single ladies and gentlemen. New applicants are vetted in person with valid photo ID — membership cannot be obtained online — and a 48-hour probationary period follows before full membership is confirmed. The venue runs to a fully licensed members bar, multiple lounge areas fitted with plush furnishings and ambient lighting, a dancefloor, and a selection of private rooms ranging from a romantic bedroom and a boudoir-style space to a well-equipped dungeon. First-time visitors are met at the door by staff and taken on a guided tour before being free to explore. The club holds a 4.7-star average on Google from over 40 reviews, with visitors describing an intimate atmosphere, warm hosting, and a well-presented, respectful crowd. A broad events calendar runs alongside regular house party nights — Play Space sessions on Thursdays, lifestyle workshops for newcomer couples and single ladies, heavy play parties, and ticketed themed nights including Lace, Leather and Latex, Hotwife Soiree, and Sunday Sinners. The club opens Thursday through Sunday: Thursdays 20:00–00:00, Fridays 20:00–02:00, Saturdays 20:00–02:00, and Sundays 18:00–00:00. Annual membership is £40 per rolling year for couples and singles, with a reduced rate of £20 for students and MOD90 card holders.

New members must apply in person; single-gent applications are currently limited and require a Sunday-evening interview. Dress code is enforced: plain shirts or suits for gents on Fridays and Saturdays, smart and sexy attire for ladies throughout. All guests must be 21 or older.

HUNTER

London, London

On-Premise Club

HUNTER is a monthly gay leather and fetish night established in 2023, held at Electrowerkz — a nineteenth-century warehouse at 7 Torrens Street in Angel, Islington (EC1V 1NQ). Founded by LeatherDaddy Brew Hunter and co-promoter DJ Scott Steele, the event was named Best Party Concept at the X-Awards 2026 (Darklands, Antwerp) and maintains an uncompromisingly male-to-male and hardcore-play focus. The venue is divided into a progression of dedicated zones. The Foreplay Bar serves as the main DJ stage and hosts the opening Foreplay Happy Hour from 20:00; the Cigar Yard, an outdoor smoking area, opens with the doors. Brew's Bar offers a premium drinks selection on a card-only basis. The Dark Zone and Rawhide Cruising Alley form the play core, supplemented by Cottaging Toilets and a Masters Circle centre-stage platform where Doms and Daddies present and work with their submissives in full view. A Punish.Men.T Corner rounds out the dungeon architecture. The KinXX Gallery rotates monthly fetish art installations and doubles as the venue for Fetish Academy workshops. A Berlin Porno Kino screens across the night, and a professional bootblack service is on hand for boot and gear shining. Full changing facilities and bag storage are provided. The night runs on the third Friday of each month, 20:00 to 03:00, with last entry at 01:30. Brew Hunter hosts a Meat & Greet from 20:30; DJ Steele takes the decks at 21:00; Fetish Academy workshop sessions begin at 21:15; and the hardcore zones formally open at 22:00. The event is strictly 18+ and male-focused. Dress code is enforced at the cloakroom exit and covers leather (boots, harnesses, vests, chaps, motorcycle jackets), rubber, neoprene, and skin or scally-themed fetish wear, as well as K9 gear presented with a handler. Police and military uniforms — real or replica — all sportswear, streetwear, denim, and near-naked appearances are prohibited. Advance tickets are available but do not guarantee entry: the dress code check at the cloakroom gate is final.

Complexe Luxuria

Montreal, Quebec

On-Premise Club

Complexe Luxuria is a members-only libertine club occupying two floors at 8820 Boulevard Saint-Laurent in Montreal's Ahuntsic-Cartierville district. Operating under a fully private club model — both a membership card and a per-night admission fee are required — it opened in 2021 and has established itself as one of Montreal's larger dedicated lifestyle venues. The typical crowd spans ages 21 to 55, with a noticeable lean toward locals in their twenties and thirties; the club positions itself as equally accessible to first-timers and regulars, welcoming couples, single women, and, under controlled conditions, single men. The ground floor functions as a nightclub: two full bars, a main dancefloor with a large disco ball, a small stage used for theatrical themed events (occasionally fitted with a hot tub), six VIP booths with the largest seating up to ten, three separate changing rooms with lockers, and LED ambient lighting throughout. An on-site kitchen serves dinner by advance reservation until 9 pm. The second-floor Luxure section holds more than 20 rooms: a couples room, fantasy rooms, a glass-walled stripper-pole room overlooking the dancefloor below, a swing room, a tantra chair, massage tables, glory holes, a BDSM area with a St. Andrews Cross, and three lockable themed private rooms available by paid reservation. A resident DJ plays every evening. The club opens Fridays from 9 pm to 3 am and Saturdays from 6 pm to 3 am, with occasional Thursday events. Couples pay 40 CAD on Thursdays and Fridays and 60 CAD on Saturdays; Saturday admission requires advance reservation. Single women enter free on all nights with a 25 CAD annual membership. Single men are admitted Thursdays and Fridays with a cap of ten per night on Fridays (75 CAD Thursdays, 100 CAD Fridays), and on Saturdays by chaperone arrangement or certified group membership at 100 CAD (maximum five). Couple memberships run from 40 CAD per month to 125 CAD per year. Photo ID is mandatory at every visit and mobile phones must be stored in a locker immediately after entry.

On-Premise Club

Sitting in the Victorian terraced streets of Burslem in Stoke-on-Trent's historic Potteries heartland, atlantisEVOLUTION has spent 15-plus years building its reputation as the Midlands' most recognised nightclub-themed swingers club. The venue occupies Evolution House on William Clowes Street on a private-membership basis, drawing couples and singles from across the North West and Midlands with a formula that layers nightclub production values - themed decor, resident DJs, and a multi-room layout - onto an adult lifestyle club format. Owners Cat and Tag are the constant faces behind the bar and at the door, backed by a small team whose warmth reviewers return to again and again; the venue holds a 4.6-star rating across more than 60 independent reviews. The weekly calendar divides sessions by attendance type. Fridays (9pm-2am) are open to all - couples, single males, and single females - while Saturdays (9pm-2am) are reserved for couples and single females only. Once a month on a Wednesday evening the club stages a special themed night, and the fourth Sunday of each month (3pm-8pm) becomes the dedicated EVOLUTIONfetish session. The club also runs Newbies Nights (branded Pop My Cherry), occasional orgy-party events, and sporadic hot-wife-themed evenings. Themed costume nights are a signature touch - past runs have included an all-white marquee party - but dressing up is always optional, never compulsory. Entry requires a one-off lifetime membership (20 GBP per couple or single female), taken out at the door on a first visit by presenting photo ID - a driving licence, utility bill, or bank statement. Nightly admission thereafter is 20 GBP per couple, 10 GBP for single females, and 30 GBP for single men. Soft drinks and mixers are available on-site for 2.50 GBP. The venue is compact but delivers what reviewers describe as a decent range of areas for people with different tastes - private areas and open - spread across two floors, with play spaces upstairs. Age minimum is 18 with no upper limit. The club holds a Food Standards Agency hygiene rating of Good and is partnered with Spice Lanzarote for lifestyle travel events.

Club M4 (Menage a Quatre)

Mississauga, Ontario

On-Premise Club

Club M4 — short for Ménage à Quatre — is an on-premise lifestyle and swingers club at 1989A Dundas Street East in Mississauga, Ontario, roughly twenty kilometres west of downtown Toronto. Founded in 2008, the venue operated for eleven years on Lakeshore Boulevard West before relocating in 2019 to its current ground-floor Mississauga location. It operates as a private members club — a requirement under Ontario law following the 2005 Supreme Court of Canada ruling that legalized consensual swinging in private club settings — and runs both afternoon and evening sessions seven days a week, 365 days a year. The 10,000-square-foot space is fully licensed by the Alcohol and Gaming Commission of Ontario (AGCO) and includes two bars, a large dance floor, a lounge area, and roughly 5,000 square feet of dedicated play space. A 196-locker changing facility with showers and vanity areas serves guests entering the back — condoms are distributed free throughout the play areas, and towels are provided by locker-room attendants. A rentable VIP Red Room (king-size bed, private play equipment, complimentary non-alcoholic drinks; $100 Mon–Thu, $150 Fri–Sun) adds a private option for members who want it. The club also runs a companion online social network, menageaquatre.com, where members can connect between visits. Door prices for couples are $50 CAD Sunday through Friday and Saturday afternoons, rising to $70 CAD on Saturday evenings; single women enter free at every session, while single men pay $110 CAD and are welcome all nights except Saturday evenings and New Year's Eve. A basic annual membership ($60 CAD per single or couple) is required of every guest and is purchased in person at the first visit; a VIP couples membership ($649 CAD/year, currently available at a promotional $349) covers unlimited admission including special events. A monthly Young Swingers Society (YSS) event on the last Saturday of each month offers a themed night aimed at couples in their 20s and 30s at $30 CAD per couple. Every first-time visitor receives a guided tour of the premises before being admitted to the main floor.

The Playpen

Los Angeles, CA

gentlemens club / strip club

The Playpen is a private lifestyle club in Los Angeles, CA welcoming couples and open-minded adults. The venue provides a comfortable, discreet setting for socializing and intimate encounters.

Birdhaus

Toronto, Ontario

Birdhaus is a BDSM, kink, and alternative arts event space tucked behind the big pink building at 1233R Queen Street West in Toronto's Parkdale neighbourhood. Co-owned by Miranda and Tifereth — veteran producers and performers in both the local and international alternative arts scenes — the venue opened in 2021 in the Entertainment District before relocating to Liberty Village and then expanding to its current home in 2024. The space carries roughly a century of building history and has been transformed into what the owners describe as an intimate venue for the city's avant-garde. The 2024 expansion brought a licensed bar and cocktail program alongside a significantly broader events calendar. The venue operates as a multi-use space: in-house produced events share the calendar with third-party producers including Sex Positive World, Bound Together, and BIPOC Babes. A dedicated rope education program — described on the site as inclusive, creative, comprehensive — is led by Tifereth and a team of resident educators, covering everything from beginner bondage to aerial partials and self-suspension. Weekly Tinker Tuesday sessions (Tuesdays, 19:00–23:00) serve as open rope practice jams, while structured classes and workshops run throughout the month. Private tuition is also available through individual instructors. Flagship evening events include Voyeur, a monthly cabaret and BDSM play party running 21:00–03:00 with per-person tickets priced at $50–$100 CAD, and Sweat, a leather and latex fetish party running roughly 21:30–02:30 at $30–$45 CAD per person. The calendar also features Smutty Storytelling open-mic nights, film screenings, community socials, and themed one-off events. All events are 19+ and ticketed in advance through the Birdhaus website — walk-ins are not accepted. Dress code for play parties requires fetish attire and prohibits street wear including T-shirts, jeans, and runners.

Killing Kittens

London, Greater London

Event Organizer

Founded in London in 2005 by Emma Sayle, Killing Kittens has spent two decades building what it bills as the world's most exclusive and hedonistic parties — a female-empowerment brand "fully focused on the pursuit of female pleasure for girls in control who know what they want." From those London beginnings it has grown into a global movement spanning more than 22 cities across 10 countries, with over 250,000 people having attended its events, yet London remains its home turf. Parties there are staged in a rotating cast of "exclusive and luxurious venues in London, with stunning decor, state-of-the-art sound systems, and a carefully curated atmosphere." Locations are kept secret and revealed only to confirmed guests, part of the discretion the brand stakes its reputation on. The KK model is strictly members-and-invitation-only: "The only way to gain exclusive access to KK parties is by becoming a KK member or receiving an invite from one." Full "Kitten" membership is reserved for women, trans and non-binary people, who lead the room; Guest membership lets others attend alongside a Full member or buy tickets to designated Singles events, and solo men are otherwise excluded. The brand's long-standing golden rule puts women firmly in charge — the women make the first move, and men may never approach a woman they don't know. Consent sits at the centre of everything, with guidelines emailed before every event covering "greetings through aftercare" and trained staff on hand throughout; masks are traditionally kept on until 11pm, when play begins. Beyond the flagship nights, KK runs a calendar of themed events — Masquerade Balls, Kinky Cabaret, Hedonism nights and seasonal Halloween parties among them — plus workshops and a members' community that continues online through the WAX app. Tickets are priced by who's attending, roughly from around £50–£75 for single women up to £200-plus for couples, keeping the crowd skewed toward women and couples. The brand leans hard on stated values of gender equity, body positivity, consent and inclusivity, welcoming "all genders and sexualities to come and play" while pledging zero tolerance for racism, ableism, sexism, fatphobia or transphobia. Confidentiality is absolute — guest information and event details are never shared — and the whole experience is designed to feel luxurious, safe and free of judgement.

Hedonism NI

Belfast, Northern Ireland

On-Premise Club

Hedonism NI is a touring swingers social run across Northern Ireland rather than from a single fixed address. In the club's own words it is "an action packed swingers' party with a lively social scene for adults who enjoy meeting fellow open minded men and women at parties through-out Northern Ireland," and the site pitches the region's "premier" home for those "wishing to live a consensual non monogamist lifestyle" in "a safe no pressure yet fun" environment. The hosts, who go by Hotlips & Superstar, come "from a swinging background and with experience at hosting parties stretching back over 20 years," and their socials rotate through venues around the country, with recent 2026 parties landing in Bangor. Events are ticketed in advance through Eventbrite, and the venue address is deliberately withheld: house rule two states "The location must never be given out," and it is released only to verified ticket holders. Pricing for a recent End of Summer Social ran £10 for single ladies, £20 for single gents and £25 for couples. Doors work to a tight window: "Attendees must arrive between 9:30pm and 11pm," couples "MUST arrive and LEAVE as a couple," and "Closing time is 1am." The dress code is "cool and sexy" (clean, un-ripped jeans tolerated, no baseball caps), and consent is paramount, with the rules stressing "'NO THANKS, MEANS NO'" and "NO one is obligated to participate in any activities." Unlike a BYOB club, Hedonism NI runs a bar: "Alcohol is sold on the premises and therefore no one entering will be allowed to bring their own." Privacy is enforced hard, with no cameras or recording equipment ("They will be confiscated"), phones permitted only to swap numbers, and "No Facebook check-ins." Drugs and prostitution are banned outright, drunken behaviour is not tolerated, smoking is limited to the front entrance, and there is free on-street parking with a taxi rank outside. Prospective guests connect and verify through the club's Telegram, FabSwingers profile and mailing list, and follow party announcements across Facebook, Instagram, TikTok and X.

Club 2020

Malsch, Baden-Württemberg

On-Premise Club

Club 2020 occupies a purpose-fitted venue on Daimlerstrasse in Malsch, a small industrial town just south of Karlsruhe in Baden-Wurttemberg. Opened in 2020 and operated by Stiefel GmbH, the club positions itself as the modern way to swing and has developed a following as one of the more design-conscious lifestyle destinations in the upper Rhine valley. Entry is by pre-registration only via JoyClub.de or WhatsApp. Admission is tiered: couples pay EUR69-99, single women EUR25-35, single men EUR75-119. The dress code is strictly enforced. House principle: Alles kann, nichts muss.

Intimate Times Lifestyle Club

Edmonton, Alberta

On-Premise Club

Intimate Times Lifestyle Club bills itself as Edmonton's premier private adult social club, operating from a standalone venue in the city's west end at 17207 107 Ave NW. The club runs as an on-premise couples lifestyle space with an explicit consent-first philosophy — visitors sign a confidentiality waiver on entry, and management frames the environment as one built around respect, trust, and open communication. The club is openly LGBTQIA+ supportive and kink/BDSM friendly, with dedicated theme nights including Kink and Fetish Night alongside Sundress Saturday, Bare as You Dare, and Girls' Night Out evenings. The main floor is set up in the style of a nightclub with the feel of a house party: a dance floor, a staffed DJ booth with music starting around 22:00, a free pool table, a quieter fireplace lounge, and a fully licensed cash bar. BYOB is not permitted under Alberta's liquor licence. Complimentary snacks — chips, nuts, pretzels, and desserts — are included with cover, and an on-site ATM is available. Staff-led tours of the venue run from 21:00 to 23:00; the communal open play area opens at 23:00 and remains available until 02:45. There are no private rooms — all play occurs in the open communal space. The club runs every Friday and Saturday, 21:00 to 03:00, with last admission at 01:00. Cover is tiered: during the earlybird window (21:00-22:00), member couples pay CAD $40 and non-member couples $50; singles pay $20 (member) or $25 (non-member). After 22:00, rates rise to $50/$60 for couples and $25/$30 for singles. Annual membership — mandatory from the second visit — costs $130 for couples and $65 for singles; a one-night weekend couple membership is available at $40 plus the member cover rate. Memberships expire after one year and are non-transferable. A prior invitation is required for all first-time visitors. Government-issued photo ID is mandatory at the door; minimum age is 21.

The New Gatehouse

Kearsley, Greater Manchester

On-Premise Club

The New Gatehouse — operating under the banner of GH Events — occupies a converted former pub on the A666 Bolton Road in Kearsley, a short distance from Bolton in Greater Manchester. The venue trades on its identity as an explicitly inclusive lifestyle and fetish club, describing itself as an LGBTQ+ safe space where guests are welcome regardless of age, ethnicity, sexual orientation, or body size. There are no membership fees, and the fully licensed bar means drink is available on-site throughout all sessions. The programming at The New Gatehouse is unusually broad for a venue of its type. Rather than a single weekly party format, the club runs distinct themed sessions every day from Monday through Saturday, catering to overlapping communities across the fetish, trans, bisexual, and BDSM scenes. The building's conversion from a pub gives it a relaxed social atmosphere — the club itself emphasises that first-timers should arrive prepared to sit, chat, and observe before anything else, and that experienced staff are available to answer questions. Staff walk new visitors around the venue on arrival and go through the rules in person. The weekly schedule runs as follows: Monday is Bonkers Bingo (noon–6pm); Tuesday is a Tgirls and Men Only day (10am–4pm); Wednesday is Tgirls and Admirers (11am–midnight, with Tgirls admitted from 10am); Thursday splits into a Bisexual Day (10am–4pm) followed by a BDSM Event (4pm–midnight); Friday is Fetish Fridays (noon–1am); Saturday opens with Tgirls and Admirers (noon–7pm) before transitioning into the Seductive Party Night (7pm–1am); Sundays are closed to the public and reserved for private hire. The venue is also available for private bookings on request.

Auberge La Passion

Drummondville, Quebec

On-Premise Club

Auberge La Passion is a licensed private club échangiste at 2655 rue St-Pierre in Drummondville, Quebec, roughly 100 kilometres east of Montreal. Founded by Luc and Chantal, the club opened on 5 April 2014 after its owners navigated municipal and court processes to obtain what they describe as the region's first official club échangiste permit. The venue holds all required operating licences. The property divides between the main club building and an adjacent annex, Le Petit Hôtel, which together offer 13 overnight suites available to members from C$80/night. Inside the main building, the social floor runs through a dance floor, a billiard lounge, and a licensed bar; a keypad-controlled interior door separates this area from the play section, which comprises themed rooms with large beds configured for private or group use, a soft BDSM space, a mirrored room, and individual rooms with doors or privacy chains. Showers, towels, and condoms are provided throughout. Suites within the main club building prohibit alcohol; those in Le Petit Hôtel permit it. First-time visitors receive a guided walk-through on arrival. Parties run every Friday and Saturday from 20:00 to 03:00. Friday evenings admit couples alongside a limited number of pre-screened single men (reservation required); bar access on Fridays is free for members, with playroom access at C$50/couple. Saturday nights are reserved for couples and single women — single men are not admitted on Saturdays. Saturday admission is C$70/couple. Single women enter free at all times. Annual membership is mandatory for all attendees at C$90 per unit (couple, single woman, or single man) and the card must be presented at every visit. Dress code is strictly enforced: business-casual or city wear for men (sportswear, cargo pants, caps, and athletic footwear refused), and dressed-up or sexy attire encouraged for women.

Club de Rencontre La Rumeur

Quebec City, Quebec

Members Club

Club de Rencontre La Rumeur has been Quebec City's primary address for the lifestyle scene for more than three decades — its annual signature event, the Bar en Blanc gala, reached its 33rd edition in March 2026. The venue occupies a commercial unit in a light-industrial pocket of the western suburbs at 600 Rue des Canetons, a short drive from the city centre but well removed from the old-city tourist corridor. It describes itself as a club for "gens libérés" and draws couples and singles who come to socialize, dance or explore within a framework that places mutual respect at the centre of its stated rules. The space is divided into two functionally distinct sections. The front half is a licensed discotheque with a full cash bar, a dance floor and a rotating calendar of themed nights — decade evenings, candaulism nights, déshabillé parties and seasonal galas among them — that give regulars a consistent reason to return. Beyond it lies La Cachette ("the hiding place"), an alcohol-free zone housing the club's intimate facilities: a coat check, showers, bathroom, towels, a mirrored dance floor with a podium and pole flanked by high-top tables for spectators, couches, four private rooms (one fitted with four beds) and a lounge with a wall-mounted screen. Lockers with provided locks are available. Staff members escort first-time visitors through both sections before the evening gets under way. The club runs Thursday through Saturday. Thursdays (9 pm–1 am) are open-door nights requiring no membership, and La Cachette is accessible to all guests. Fridays (9 pm–3 am) welcome couples alongside singles of all genders; Saturdays (9 pm–3 am) restrict entry to couples and unaccompanied women, with single men excluded. Annual membership costs $90 for a couple or a single man; single women join at no charge. Per-event pricing starts at $20 per couple, $40 for single men, and ranges from free to $10 for single women depending on the night. A membership card is mandatory for special events, including the Bar en Blanc.

KNetic Club

Calgary, Alberta

On-Premise Club

KNetic Club bills itself as "Calgary's largest fully licensed Lifestyle Swingers Club" — LGBTQ-owned and pitched as ultra-inclusive, welcoming singles, couples, and throuples across two Calgary venues (KNetic South and KNetic North). It runs as an event-driven private club rather than a daily-open venue: a free member profile must be created and approved before attending, and the calendar mixes high-energy themed parties (Unicorn Night, Spicy Stampede Social, Cowboy Boots & Daisy Dukes), play-focused nights, a "Real Talk" relationships discussion series, partner workshops, and a regular Newbie Night for first-timers. Single men can't attend couples nights alone — the classic couples-protective convention — while single women are welcomed and discounted on select nights. The roughly 3,400 sq ft South venue pairs a main dance floor (DJ, stripper pole) with an upstairs lounge of pool and darts, a furnished playroom, gender-neutral washrooms, and a "FLEX" bar where members can buy drinks or bring their own. The KNetic name spans a small multi-brand network: alongside the couples-and-singles flagship, it operates KNetic Men (a gay/bi/queer men's cruise club) and KNetic Women (a queer women's club), each with its own community, plus it rents the venue to third-party kink organizer K-E-A-N for shibari and BDSM education nights. Founded on a "Love Always Wins" ethos and described as Calgary's only fully LGBTQ-owned lifestyle club, that breadth is why some visitors read it as "a queer club" — but the flagship's own marketing is explicit: "a safe space for 18+ singles, couples, and more." Entry is event-ticketed and varies by night (commonly from ~$10–$15 CAD, with Premium-member and single-women discounts on select events), and an optional paid Premium membership ($10/mo–$95/yr) unlocks door discounts and social features but not admission. Fully licensed (City of Calgary, Alberta Health Services, Calgary Fire, AGLC), the club is well regarded — reportedly around 4.7★ on one review aggregator — and was active as of mid-2026.

H&H Social Club (Heaven & Hell)

Manchester, NH

Social Club

H&H Social Club — Heaven & Hell — is a New Hampshire-based lifestyle event organization and luxury adult travel community that has built a loyal following across the Granite State and beyond. Unlike a brick-and-mortar club, H&H operates as a roving collective: its events take place at rented nightlife venues, hotel ballrooms, chartered boats, and all-inclusive resort takeovers rather than a fixed address, which keeps the vibe fresh and the crowd — drawn from New Hampshire, Massachusetts, and the broader New England lifestyle scene — pleasantly varied. The format ranges from low-key bar Meet & Greets where newcomers can size things up in a no-pressure, clothed environment, to large-scale, on-premise hotel takeovers that run full weekends with DJs, themed nightly parties, and dedicated play spaces. The event calendar spans several recurring signatures. Luminescence is a private sunset booze cruise on Boston Harbor — an electric-jungle-themed adults-only boat party with a full bar and live DJ; the adjacent Freaky Friday Meet & Greet the night before gives attendees a chance to connect before boarding. The annual Bacchanalia series is a full resort takeover at a clothing-optional property in Mexico (Hidden Beach Resort Au Naturel, Riviera Maya for 2026), running five nights of themed evenings — Burlesque, Luau, All That Glitters Is Gold, Down the Rabbit Hole, and an Intergalactic Glow night — with gourmet dining and premium drinks. A Winter Wonderland hotel-floor takeover rounds out the domestic calendar, while Virgin Alaska Cruise group trips and a Barcelona–Ibiza experience extend the travel programme internationally. Membership is optional — most events sell tickets to the public — but the paid membership site unlocks early booking, a full event calendar, and H&H Rewards points. All events are primarily open to couples and single women; a limited number of single men are accepted at select events. Attendees must be 21 or older. Event locations are disclosed only on tickets and the members site, preserving discretion. Reach the club by call, text, or WhatsApp at 603-550-9676, or follow @heavenandhellsocialclub on Instagram.

Club L (Le Club L)

Montreal, Quebec

On-Premise Club

Club L is a members-only lifestyle and swinging club occupying more than 7,200 square feet across two floors of a converted Caisse Populaire Desjardins building on Rue Jean-Talon Est in Montreal's Rosemont-La Petite-Patrie neighbourhood. Founded by the couple Mateo Lapointe and Andree, who have practised open relationships since 2003, the venue positions itself as one of Quebec's premier couple-centred libertine spaces — high-end, consent-focused, and deliberately discreet from the street. The ground floor operates as a full restaurant-lounge with small round tables, a central bar, and a chef preparing plated meals that are included in the entry price. A DJ plays on Friday and Saturday nights, and all sexual activity is confined to the second floor — keeping the main floor comfortable for socialising, dining, and meeting at any pace. The second floor opens around 22:30 and holds nine themed private rooms plus a large open communal play area. Rooms are equipped with individual sinks, adjustable mood lighting, and personalised sound controls; there are showers, towels, and full bathroom toiletries on the same floor. Suspension anchors for Shibari and swing chairs are available in the communal space, and on-floor security monitors (vigiles) are present throughout the playroom level at all times. Friday and Saturday nights run 19:00-03:00 and are reserved for couples, single women (femmes libres), and pre-sponsored male escorts (hommes accompagnateurs) whose sponsors must register them in advance — unaccompanied men are not admitted. Select Thursday evenings run 19:00-23:00 as social-only events open to all adults 18 and over, with the second floor closed and no membership required. A valid membership is mandatory for all Friday and Saturday visits: CAD $35 per person for one month, or CAD $75 per person annually. Entry fees vary by event from CAD $45 to $80 per person (plus tax), covering one meal per person. First-time visitors must arrive by 23:00 to complete a mandatory guided tour of the second floor. Payment is accepted in cash or physical debit card only; online reservations carry a non-refundable CAD $5 per person deposit credited at the door.

Friction Parties

Unverified

Washington, DC

Event Organizer

Friction Parties is a women-owned and operated event company founded more than 22 years ago by Lisa Friction, billed as the only nationally recognized hotel party brand in the United States. Operating across the East Coast — with events regularly held in the Washington DC/Maryland area, Philadelphia, New Jersey, North Carolina, and Ohio — Friction takes over entire hotels for the duration of each event, meaning every guest and room belongs exclusively to the lifestyle community. The organizing ethos is welcoming but selective: the crowd skews toward what organizers describe as attractive, well-groomed couples and single women, and all attendees are pre-screened before admission. Events run in two formats. Single-day events are typically held on Saturdays around themed holidays — Halloween, New Year’s Eve, Valentine’s Day, St. Patrick’s Day — with check-in from 2 PM and a ballroom dance party running from 9 PM to around 1:30 AM. Weekend two-day events add clothing-optional pool parties and afternoon activities. Ticket prices range from approximately $75–$150 per person; no refunds, only future-event credits. Membership on the platform lets members browse event attendee lists and connect with couples and single females year-round. Once the main dance party ends, the format shifts to an informal hall crawl on a designated party floor where room doors are propped open and guests host themed mini-parties until the early morning. The ballroom features a DJ, dance poles, cages, and themed décor matched to the night’s costume theme. Alcohol is available via full cash bar operated by the hotel; guests may not bring drinks from rooms to the party floor.

Zwanglos III

Closed

Berlin, Berlin

Zwanglos III is a couples-and-swingers club (Pärchen- und Swingerclub) in the heart of Berlin-Kreuzberg, on Gneisenaustraße 10 at the corner of Nostitzstraße, a couple of minutes from the U7 Gneisenaustraße U-Bahn. Run by Zwanglos Gastronomie GmbH (managing director Nadine Hoffmann), it billed itself as 'der gemütliche Swingerclub im Herzen von Berlin Kreuzberg' and 'Berlins ältester Swingerclub' — a cosy, long-established venue with many rooms and rotating themed evenings, a place to slip away from everyday life in a clean, refined (gepflegt, niveauvoll) atmosphere. The club's guiding line is 'Alles kann, nichts muss' — anything goes, nothing is required — so each guest decides how far they want to go, and the staff make a point of putting newcomers at ease. The layout spreads across many playrooms plus a sauna, a pool and a whirlpool for relaxing between encounters, and a bar where drinks are effectively all-inclusive. By the club's own Öffnungszeiten it ran as a near-continuous session from Tuesday 14:00 through to Sunday 14:00 (its homepage slogan is simply '24 h täglich geöffnet'), closing only from Sunday afternoon until Tuesday afternoon. Sundays had a relaxed daytime rhythm: sensual massages from 13:00 to 18:00 with the sauna and whirlpool open, and a 'Schnuppertag' for the curious — newcomers were shown into the swinger world for three hours from 14:00 for 25 euro including three drinks. Pricing followed the classic German swingers structure: single women entered free, couples paid 50 euro, and single men 65–125 euro depending on the day (men only paid the difference if they overstayed their session); all prices included drinks apart from champagne and cocktails plus the theme-night entertainment, with a 5 euro surcharge on certain special nights. The events calendar was dense and playful — FKK (nudist) nights, White-Room and Neon parties, sauna-wellness nights, dark-room and gang-bang parties, Adam-und-Eva and Herrenüberschuss ('more men than women') evenings, Oktoberfest, Karneval der Kulturen and the full run of seasonal parties (Halloween, Silvester, Valentine's, Easter, Christmas). Cleanliness and a respectful, level-headed manner toward other guests were treated as a given.

Friction Carolina

Durham, NC

Event Organizer

Friction Carolina is the Raleigh-Durham chapter of Friction Parties, a hotel-takeover swingers event brand founded by Lisa Friction more than two decades ago and run as a women-owned and -operated business. Rather than operating a single fixed venue, Friction stages full hotel buyouts at upscale, mainstream hotel properties across North Carolina, alongside sister markets in the Philadelphia/New Jersey area, the Washington DC region, and Ohio. The company describes its events as complete hotel takeovers rather than floor or ballroom rentals, and positions itself as a nationally recognized hotel-party brand in the lifestyle scene. Because host properties are conventional hotels with their own liquor licenses, the ballroom runs on a cash bar and outside alcohol is barred from any area where the hotel sells drinks, unless a specific date is advertised as BYOB. Parties are built around a rented ballroom for the main event and a private party floor of guest rooms, with area DJs, a stripper pole and dance cage, a step-and-repeat photo backdrop, and security posted at check-in and on the private floors overnight. A late-night pizza run and after-parties on the guest-room floor extend the evening once the ballroom event winds down. Guests are asked to wear a robe or cover-up in hallways and other public hotel areas, and fog machines, candles, vaping, and smoking are all prohibited indoors under hotel fire code. Admission is screening-based and limited to couples and single women who meet the group's appearance standards; the site's own registration form offers only "Couple" and "Female" account types, and unaccompanied single men are not admitted under any circumstance. Site membership is free, and an event ticket purchase includes a temporary premium membership, with a paid "Platinum" membership sold separately for year-round profile browsing and messaging. Check-in cutoff varies by event — stated as 11pm on one official page and midnight on another — with no late entry, and purchases are non-refundable; cancellations and no-shows receive a 12-month event credit instead.

Fetish Week London

London, Greater London

BDSM Club

Fetish Week London (FWL) is the UK's largest annual gathering for gay, bi, queer, trans and curious men into gear and fetish, presented by Recon — the London fetish dating brand operated by T101 Ltd. Rather than a single fixed club, it is an eight-day, city-wide festival that in its own words returns 'to the UK's capital... with another fun-packed schedule of events over 8 full days.' The 2026 edition, running 5-12 July, marked the milestone 15th Anniversary and again made Electrowerkz — a warehouse venue at 7 Torrens Street, behind Angel tube in Islington (EC1V 1NQ) — its 'exclusive and kinky home base for the week.' The programme is built around a spine of official events alongside dozens of external parties hosted by London's fetish retailers and kink-friendly bars. Recurring headline nights include the invite-only Recon Members' Party, a film Screening, Fetish Cabaret, a Masterclass evening of educational demos, the Sports Cruise, Rubber Gear, the FWL Sunday Social, and the main event, Full Fetish, which 'takes over the entire underground warehouse-style venue' with a dedicated BDSM space, watersports and cruising maze, a fisting area, House/Pop/Techno dancefloors, a VIP room, and a newer quieter zone for neurodivergent kinksters. From Wednesday to Saturday a daytime FWL Hub and Gear Market runs at Electrowerkz, pairing fetish retailers and a second-hand gear swap-and-shop with DJs, extended educational demos, discussion panels and daily Sober Recovery meet-ups. Entry is strictly over-18 and photo ID is required at the door. Most events enforce a dress code, with the site's guide spanning leather, rubber, sports, skinhead, uniform/military and pup gear (suit and tie also counts) under two firm rules: 'naked is not gear,' and no nazi, far-right, fascist or extremist symbolism, on pain of refused entry. Tickets are sold in advance through DICE — Full Fetish, for example, is GBP 30 general / GBP 60 VIP — and a photographer or videographer records the events, with attendees free to opt out on the night without being denied entry. The week is community-minded rather than gamified, with sober support built into the schedule.

Complexe Libertin Obsession

Closed

Montreal-Nord, Quebec

lifestyle-club

Complexe Libertin Obsession — also known under its earlier name Entre Nous 2, and later branded Club Obsession — was a lifestyle and nightclub complex at 6500 Boulevard Henri-Bourassa Est in the Montreal-Nord borough of Montreal, Quebec. The venue is permanently closed. It declared bankruptcy within three weeks of Quebec's COVID-19 lockdown beginning in March 2020 and vacated its premises in early June 2020, ending an operation that had billed itself as the largest swinger club in the world. The complex grew in two phases. Entrepreneurs from the Montreal libertine community launched Entre Nous 2 in 2017 as the lifestyle component: a 24-hour venue accommodating up to 400 guests and featuring an indoor heated pool, a hot tub and spa, a dry sauna, a massage area, a dark room, a bar, and multiple private and group rooms. In late 2018 the owners acquired an adjacent warehouse space and began converting approximately 18,000 square feet of it into Obsession Night Club, which opened in early 2019. The combined footprint of the two connected venues exceeded 40,000 square feet. The nightclub side featured a large central DJ booth designed so every guest felt close to the performer, a VIP section described as upscale and modern, and a licensed bar. The design aesthetic drew deliberately on Las Vegas-style nightlife. Themed events on the lifestyle side regularly drew 500 to 600 attendees, and the largest evenings exceeded 1,000 people. The two venues operated as an intentional continuum: the nightclub held a liquor licence and closed at 3 a.m., at which point guests wishing to continue the evening could transition directly into the Entre Nous 2 side, which remained open around the clock. No verified published pricing for the lifestyle side has been independently confirmed, though the venue is consistently described as operating on an admission and membership model similar to other Quebec libertine clubs. A dress code applied on Friday and Saturday evenings. Management enforced a strict privacy policy that prohibited tours of the premises for first-time visitors prior to payment, a rule the owner publicly attributed to protecting existing members.

616

Grand Rapids, MI

Rotating hotel takeover event organizer - no fixed venue

Club 616 is a members-only lifestyle club serving West Michigan, running themed hotel-takeover events in Kalamazoo, Grand Rapids, and Newaygo. Current hosts took over in January 2012, building on a group dating to the 1990s. Membership welcomes couples, single ladies, and sponsored single gentlemen; the club calls itself BDSM, kink, and LGBTQ+ friendly. Joining requires an application, photo ID, and signed consent forms. Signature parties - Red Carpet NYE, Halloween, and a spring weekend - bring a dance floor, DJ, dance pole, light show, a pool party, and a VIP room with bench swings, a St. Andrew's cross, and a ladies-only bed. A recent Halloween filled a 182-room hotel, dress shifting by zone: lobby street clothes, g-strings/pasties minimum poolside, none in the VIP room. Entry is 21-and-up, reservation-only, ID checked at registration. Consent policy bars unwanted touching; cameras banned at events.

Cats 2.0 Swingerclub

München, Bavaria

On-Premise Club

Naughty Revival

Minneapolis, MN

Lifestyle Resort

Naughty Revival is a 21-and-over lifestyle and kink event based in the Minneapolis–St. Paul metro area that operates as a periodic hotel takeover rather than a fixed venue: organizers reserve an entire hotel for a private, ticketed weekend roughly once a year. The event traces back to Kinque Social Society, founded in June 2018, which reorganized under the Naughty Revival name for its first event at the Sheraton Bloomington in November 2021, followed by two-night hotel takeovers at the Sheraton Minneapolis West in Minnetonka in subsequent years. Its next takeover is scheduled for December 4–6, 2026, at a hotel disclosed only by email to ticket and room holders. Each takeover converts the reserved hotel into a self-contained event space, with a ballroom dungeon and a pool dungeon outfitted with more than 60 pieces of equipment, four performance stages, classroom space for educational programming, a vendor marketplace, dining areas, and a dedicated swingers' suite, alongside the hotel's own pool, hot tub, sauna and racquetball courts. Outside the on-site bar, restaurants and VIP dining area, clothing is optional throughout the event space, with kink and fetish wear encouraged but street clothes also welcome. Attendance runs upward of 900 guests per event, and both couples and singles of any gender are explicitly welcomed. Doors open at 3:00 PM Friday (1:00 PM for VIP ticket holders), with the event and hotel checkout running through 1:00 PM Sunday. Entry requires a pre-purchased ticket and photo ID for mandatory 21+ verification; general admission runs $165 and VIP $525 per person, with an Ultra VIP two-person suite package at $3,450, and hotel rooms booked and priced separately from admission. House rules ban phones, cameras and recording devices anywhere outside private rooms or a designated phone room, enforce a consent-based stoplight safe-word system, and prohibit illegal drugs and firearms; alcohol is sold at the hotel and venue bars rather than brought in, and smoking is restricted to an area at least 25 feet from any entrance.

Asthoria Swingdreams

Neumünster, Schleswig-Holstein

On-Premise Club

On-Premise Club

Nestled in the south suburbs of Chicago, Club Release has carved out a reputation as one of the region's most distinctive lifestyle venues and one of the few that genuinely rolls out the welcome mat for select single men alongside couples. The club operates under the motto Putting the life into your Lifestyle, a phrase that captures its mission of creating a social, pressure-light environment where curious newcomers and seasoned regulars can mingle, dance, and connect. The venue's approach to singles is unusually structured and deliberately gentlemanly. Single men must prepay in advance, no walk-ins, no exceptions, no refunds, and must arrive before the 9:00 pm cut-off to be admitted. Once inside, unescorted access to any play area is a zero-tolerance violation: singles must move through those spaces with a couple or alongside a single woman. The etiquette guidelines on the website read less like a list of rules and more like a lesson in social intelligence, introducing yourself to both partners, reading non-verbal cues, and accepting any no without negotiation. Dress code is firmly enforced in the spirit of a nice nightclub: think sexy and stylish, not casual or confrontational. Backwards caps, sweatpants, sagging jeans, and any biker or gang-affiliated attire are explicitly barred. Events are ticketed in advance, with schedules announced via the website and Facebook page.

Allures Lifestyle

Sacramento, CA

Event Organizer (Hotel Takeover Parties)

Allures Lifestyle is Sacramento's longest-running lifestyle event organizer — a pop-up operation that descends on the DoubleTree by Hilton Sacramento's grand ballroom and transforms it into what the group bills as Northern California's premier swinger dance-play party. Operating under the tagline "the force of irresistible attraction," Allures has run monthly hotel parties for over a decade and draws couples from across the greater Sacramento area and beyond. The setup reads more nightclub than back-room affair: romantic candlelight, fog machines, sensual mood lighting, and two large projector screens broadcasting music videos accompany a state-of-the-art DJ spinning Old School, R&B, Hip Hop, Latin, Pop, EDM, and Classic Rock. The main ballroom floor centers on a full dance floor with a stripper pole and go-go stage, flanked by reserved VIP round tables (seating eight each) and 10-by-7-foot draped VIP cabanas — each fitted with a sofa, loveseat, and coffee table — right on the dance floor. Adjacent to the ballroom, the "Boom Boom Room" play suite provides multiple beds, a double-sided St. Andrew's Cross, a multi-positional sex horse, and a sex swing, staffed by Allures personnel throughout the evening. Guests in the play suite are asked to be in lingerie or less; voyeurs are welcome but may be asked to vacate if space is needed. Overnight sleeping rooms — standard rooms through two-bedroom suites — can be reserved in the Allures hotel block, placing guests on dedicated Allures floors and including a goodie bag at check-in. The event calendar runs to monthly themed hotel dances plus more intimate "Fantasy Fridays" at rotating venues, casual Meet & Greets at nightclubs and lifestyle bars, and an ambitious roster of destination programming: a clothing-optional takeover in Jaco, Costa Rica, Hedonism II Jamaica dates, Bliss and Desire cruise ship charters, Vegas weekends, Gold Country motorcycle runs, boating flotillas, and camping trips. The signature event is the annual New Year's Eve "SEXabration Ball," which drew national news coverage in January 2020 after nearly 1,000 guests filled the DoubleTree. All hotel events are 21+; a full cash bar is on-site.

Silk Lifestyle

Miami, FL

Social Club

Silk Lifestyle is an invite-only lifestyle events group based in Miami that throws themed play parties in rented private mansions rather than a fixed clubhouse. Past nights include a cyberpunk party at a Hollywood, Florida mansion headlined by DJ Markus Schulz, a Celtic-occult "Emerald Covenant," and an annual New Year's Eve mansion takeover in Fort Lauderdale. Entry runs through an online application, not walk-up admission: event pages state attendance is "by application approval" with "no door sales, no outsiders," and every applicant is vetted. Tickets are priced separately by category -- couples, throuples, single women, and a capped number of single men. Nights lean all-inclusive: open bar, chef-prepared bites, DJ sets, photo booths, massage therapists, and themed play rooms, with some adding fire dancers or a heated pool. Phones stay in designated areas, and photography is barred inside play spaces.

Eyz Wide Shut

Tampa, FL

On-Premise Club

Spread across more than 12,000 square feet in two adjoining buildings on East Adamo Drive, Eyz Wide Shut is Tampa's only dedicated on-premise lifestyle nightclub. Eyz Wide Shut II houses the nightclub proper — a full liquor bar (cash only), a nightly complimentary buffet, a dance floor with a brass pole, a game room with pool and air hockey, a covered outdoor smoking patio, and an erotic-art museum stocked with imported pieces. Next door, Eyz Wide Shut I holds ten themed private suites — Dungeon, Cleopatra, Seaside, Harem, Wild West among them — plus three group rooms (including a large dungeon, a Hedonism room, and Lovers Lane) and a one-way-glass voyeur room. The club opens Thursday through Sunday; Fridays and Saturdays run 7 pm to 3 am with playrooms unlocking at 11 pm and staying open until 5 am. Thursdays and Sundays keep shorter hours. Membership is required for playroom access and can be purchased at the door alongside a valid, scannable government-issued photo ID — no digital copies accepted. A dress code is enforced on Fridays and Saturdays: sexy clubwear or business casual, no hats, no athletic wear, no open-toe shoes for men. Security is thorough: every guest passes through a metal detector, pockets are emptied, and bags are searched. Phones are permitted in the nightclub but must be surrendered before entering the playroom building — no cameras, smart watches, or recording devices of any kind are allowed on the play side, with violations resulting in a lifetime ban. Group rooms are reserved for couples and single females; single males may enter only by invitation to a private suite, with the exception of Pride nights and the group dungeon.

TABOTA Monster Bash

Niagara Falls, Ontario

Event Organizer

TABOTA Monster Bash is an annual Halloween-themed swinger lifestyle hotel takeover event held each October in Niagara Falls, Ontario, produced by TABOTA Events — a Canadian lifestyle company that has been running adult events since 2007. The Bash traces its lineage from a Northbound Leather Friday-night pre-party in downtown Toronto, through a club-format O Zone event, before expanding into a full-weekend hotel takeover. For the duration of the event, TABOTA books the entire property of an upscale hotel and indoor waterpark complex located minutes from the Falls — the venue name is not published, consistent with the organizers' discretion-first approach — ensuring the property is accessible to registered guests only. The event is open to couples and single women; single men are not admitted, and attendance is restricted to guests aged 19 and over. The venue is a tropical-themed resort with a clothing-optional indoor waterpark, heated pools and hot tubs, a Poolside VooDoo Lounge serving bistro-style snacks, and award-winning gourmet dining in an enclosed courtyard garden. Dedicated lifestyle spaces include a Penthouse Play Area, a Kinky Playroom, and an outdoor Kink Garden; on the main Saturday night the DJ runs until 2am, playrooms stay open until 4am, and the pools and hot tubs operate clothing-optional until 3am. Programming begins Thursday with an Interactive Escape Room and themed dance for early-arrival guests. Friday brings a Meet and Greet, a theme dance, and access to the play areas. Saturday is the anchor day: a daytime pool party with a live band, XXX-rated pumpkin carving, a Pirates and Wenches treasure hunt, sexual tarot readings, professional body painting, wax play and shibari rope-bondage demos, a pole dance workshop, a Lick or Trick room crawl, and the Carnival of Sinz — a carnivalesque set of risque games including Cock Toss, Naked Axe Throwing, and X-Rated Beer Pong. The evening builds through a Dinner Murder Mystery on Bourbon Street and Black Tape Body Artistry before culminating in the Halloween Gala, the main costume-contest dance party. The 2026 event runs October 23-25, with a Thursday early-arrival upgrade available. All bookings are made in advance through TabotaEvents.com; the event consistently sells out. A pass-only package (full weekend event access, no room) is $169 per person plus 13% HST; a pass-and-room package covering two nights of accommodation plus all event access is $439 per person plus 13% HST. A courtyard pool-view room upgrade adds $69 per person per night, and the Thursday early-arrival night adds $99 per person per night. Guests in accommodation packages are required to pay a mandatory $100 per person weekend party credit in cash at check-in, redeemable anywhere in the hotel for food and drinks. Photography and camera use are prohibited throughout the event.

Caliente Club & Resorts

Land O' Lakes, FL

Lifestyle Resort

Set on a gated, palm-fringed property in Land O' Lakes just north of Tampa, Caliente Club & Resorts bills itself as the most luxurious, adults-only, clothing-optional experience around, welcoming both newcomers curious about going nude and seasoned regulars alike. The grounds center on five pools, including a quarter-acre lagoon pool with a waterfall and two islands, plus a hot tub, sports and fitness facilities, and the on-site Retreat Spa offering wraps, facials, manicures, pedicures, and hydrotherapy. Guests stay in condominiums, casitas, or hotel rooms and can dine at a full-service restaurant with an executive chef or go casual at the sports bar. The resort runs on a members-only model: because it operates clothing-optional in the U.S., visitors must hold a Daily or Annual/Vacation Club membership to enter, and everyone 21 and older must present valid government ID at the gate. Attire is optional almost everywhere except the gym, and cameras are barred for unauthorized guests - photos require a security staff member present. A private security team is on-site 24/7, cash is not accepted for purchases (credit cards or a prepaid Cash Card only), and free Wi-Fi covers the main clubhouse and poolside areas. Entertainment runs nightly, with a full nightclub, piano bar, and DJ sets, and Saturday nights built around a rotating theme, from body paint to leather and lace. Single males may attend but only via in-person day passes purchased at the gate (available 8am-11pm, capacity-limited), while couples and single females can book online in advance; day passes are open-dated and do not expire.

Monde Osé

Unverified

Montreal, Quebec

Event Organizer

Monde Osé is a Montreal-based lifestyle brand and event organizer founded on August 5, 2005, by a Montrealer known publicly as Frank, whose search with his wife for upscale, open-minded sensual entertainment in the city found nothing that met their expectations. The name derives from the French "osé," meaning "daring" — a word the brand treats as both identity and mandate, pledging to challenge social norms around sexuality and self-expression. The first gathering drew 110 invited guests to Joy Nightspot, a small Montreal nightclub, structured as a private couples-and-ladies-only party. Monthly events followed, growing by word of mouth into an erotic performance-arts brand whose stated philosophy rests on three words: Respect, Acceptance, and Love. Monde Osé's principal events have been two annual balls. The Bal Érotique, launched in 2006 as a first-anniversary celebration, ran for thirteen editions through 2018: the inaugural edition drew 450 guests and numbers climbed to more than 1,500 by the peak years. The final edition — Moonlight Masquerade — was held on August 25, 2018, at Bain Mathieu, 2915 Ontario Street East, and was deliberately retired by founder Frank, who announced in August 2018 that he was moving on to other pursuits. The continuing flagship is the Bal Burlesque, a spring event led by performer and artistic director Lexxi Brown (also known as Foxy Lexxi); its most recent confirmed edition took place on March 4, 2023, at Cabaret Lion d'Or, 1676 rue Ontario est, in Montreal's Le Village neighbourhood. Events run from 9 pm to 3 am and combine live burlesque headliners, pole dancers, contortionists, and aerial artists with a soundtrack of deep house, techno, soul, and funk curated by guest DJs. Each event is built around a distinct theme deployed through décor, lighting, performance, and dress code. Access to Monde Osé events is membership-first: prospective attendees are encouraged to apply for pre-approval through the website's membership section, where applications are reviewed against unstated criteria. Non-members who arrive without prior approval are screened on-site, with entry based on what the brand describes as "attractiveness, style and sophistication," and a slight ticket premium at the door. For the 2023 Bal Burlesque, pre-sale tickets started at $55 CAD (until December 22, 2022), rising through early-bird ($65), regular ($80), and day-of ($95) tiers; VIP packages at $400 included a reserved table for the evening, bottle service, and line skip — all VIP guests were still required to hold a separate event ticket. Dress code is strictly enforced: no athletic wear, running shoes, or baseball caps; the expected standard is sexy or daring, with themed costuming actively encouraged. Guests must be at least 18 years old.

Lifestyle Playtime

Unverified

DeKalb, IL

Event Group / Hotel Takeover Organizer (no fixed venue)

Lifestyle Playtime is a Chicago-area lifestyle group based in DeKalb, IL that runs low-pressure monthly meet-and-greets alongside larger hotel takeover parties, rather than operating out of a single fixed venue. The format keeps overhead low and lets the group rotate between DeKalb and the wider Chicago suburbs depending on the event. Entry is vetted: single men must apply through the group's "Distinguished Gentlemen" screening process before attending, and all guests sign a liability waiver and show photo ID at check-in. Attendees wear an event wristband, and couples are expected to arrive and leave together, with house rules enforced by volunteer hosts rather than paid staff.

Secrets Hideaway Resort & Spa

Kissimmee, FL

Lifestyle Resort

Sprawled across five acres of converted motel buildings on East Irlo Bronson Memorial Highway — minutes from Disney World — Secrets Hideaway Resort & Spa is central Florida's flagship lifestyle destination. The members-only, clothing-optional property holds around 148 individually owned condo-hotel units arranged around a courtyard pool, two hot tubs, a poolside tiki bar and the Club Secret nightclub, which pumps EDM across a two-bar dance floor with a full light-and-sound rig most nights of the week. The main draw is an 8,000-square-foot playroom complex: five windowed private rooms with beds and couches, a large central group-play area, a curtained section with a screening lounge, and a staffed dungeon (Club Swinkster) equipped with spanking benches, bondage gear and intro classes for the curious. Playrooms are nude-or-towel only; phones and smartwatches are banned inside. Lockers ($8–$10/night, towels included) sit at the entrance beside a communal shower area. Daytime life revolves around the clothing-optional pool, where DJs spin from late morning onward. A complimentary dinner buffet runs nightly (7:30–10:30 pm), followed by a late-night omelet bar (11:30 pm–3 am) and a breakfast buffet each morning. The crowd spans twenties to sixties, skewing around 40 on weekends, with a mix of couples, single women and single men. Nightly entry fees apply on top of membership — even for hotel guests — and the property is secured by 24-hour on-site security.

LUXX Parties (Arizona Events)

Scottsdale, AZ

Lifestyle Resort

LUXX Parties is a Scottsdale, Arizona-based lifestyle event company that produces recurring multi-day parties for open-minded couples and single women rather than operating one fixed venue. Events rotate across partner hotels and resorts — including Hotel Adeline and The Monarch in Scottsdale and the Nautical Beachfront Resort in Lake Havasu City — and, through an affiliated brand called TRYST, extend to full resort takeovers at Temptation Resort in Cancún, Mexico. Each takeover pairs daytime pool parties with nighttime themed events and DJ sets over several days. Host venues supply VIP cabanas and daybeds with bottle service, on-site licensed bars and restaurants, and, at the Lake Havasu event, boat rentals. Nightly themes come with suggested attire, from 1920s speakeasy looks to glow-rave and candy-colored styles. Attendance requires a paid annual LUXX membership — $39.99 for Standard or $69.99 for Elite, capped at 2,500 members and 100 Elite slots a year — bought separately from event tickets and hotel rooms; couples memberships were discontinued in 2023, so partners now register individually. Entry is restricted to those 21 and older with valid photo ID, subject to a security search, and tickets are non-refundable. Host resorts bill their own daily resort fee, roughly $15–29, separately at check-in. No single-male ticket tier is currently advertised.

Dark Odyssey

Berkeley, CA

Event Organizer

Dark Odyssey is a roving event organization founded in 2003 by Greg, a former Black Rose board chairman, to fuse sexuality, spirituality, education, and play under one roof. Rather than operating a fixed venue, it commandeers hotels and private rural retreats for four distinct annual events: Winter Fire, a luxury hotel takeover in Baltimore running a full President's Day weekend; Fusion, a six-day summer camp in Northern Maryland on a 200-acre private facility with 40 cabins and 400 beds; Summer Camp, a Labor Day week-long gathering at the same Northern Maryland retreat; and Surrender, a pre-Halloween hotel convention in the San Jose Bay Area. Sold-out attendance at Winter Fire has reached 1,400 people. Each event follows the same architecture: days packed with 80-plus workshops spanning BDSM technique, polyamory, Tantra, sacred sexuality, and spiritual practice, taught by national educators; nights given over to fully equipped dungeons, the Sex-O-Rama open playspace (supplied with beds, lube, condoms, and gloves around the clock), and themed parties running until 2–3am. The rural camp events add outdoor suspension rigs, a tennis-court playspace with weather-resistant equipment, a Pavilion for mixers and open play, and a Temple space for ritual and sacred play. Fire spin jams, drumming circles, a Kinky State Fair, and a Saturday night show round out the program. The community self-describes as a melting pot of kinksters, queers, swingers, spiritualists, Pagans, polyamorists, and cross-dressers — pansexual, omnisexual, and explicitly welcoming to all gender identities. Attendee-created ION events let the community add its own workshops and parties to each schedule. A dedicated Incident Response Team (IRT) staffs a help desk at every event to handle consent matters in private.

Club Rendezvous (Club R)

Calgary, Alberta

On-Premise Club

Club Rendezvous — known to members simply as Club R — is Alberta's longest-running lifestyle club, welcoming Calgary's open-minded community since 1983. Under Ryan and Alicia Goeseels' ownership since 2012, it has grown into a fully licensed, AGLC-compliant venue that holds a 4.7-star Google rating across more than 180 reviews. The club spans two floors in a northeast Calgary building with a free parking lot right out front. Downstairs is the social heart of the night: a large dance floor with a stripper pole, a DJ booth spinning dance and house sets, a well-stocked licensed bar with a kitchen area for mixing your own drinks, plus a long community table and lounge booths lining the room for easy mingling between sets. Upstairs opens into the play area — an airy, open-concept space furnished with mattresses, beds, couches and a sex swing, where curtains pull closed around the beds whenever you want a more private, semi-secluded moment. The space is known for being spotlessly clean and is wheelchair accessible, with accessible seating, a lift and an accessible restroom. Club R is open every Friday and Saturday from 9 PM to 3 AM, with workshops and social events on select weeknights (roughly 7–11 PM). Rather than generic theme nights, it runs curated Club R Signature Events™, each built around a distinct energy and flow. Long-running favourites include First Time Friday for newcomers (meet, play, explore); Unicorn Friday, where single ladies get in free all night with a paid membership; the Saturday Lingerie Dance Party; the always-popular Little Black Dress "Midnight Seduction"; Taboo Friday; and dedicated Newbie & Member Appreciation nights. Entry is membership-based and capacity-controlled to protect the room's quality and balance: memberships start at $9.95 for a week and scale to $100 for the year (CAD), with event admission around $60 per couple and $30 per single. Couples and single women are the priority crowd, while single men are admitted in limited, screened numbers each event. The "dress to impress" code is genuinely enforced — upscale, sexy and theme-appropriate, with no tank tops, sideways hats, workout wear or sweatpants, work boots, exposed chains or man bags. Just as importantly, Club R runs on a consent-first culture where respect, privacy and enthusiastic consent are non-negotiable, backed by clear house rules and etiquette that underpin its Safe Space Alliance recognition. The team is famously warm with first-timers, and the club welcomes all bodies, genders, orientations and experience levels (18+) — part of why a community of roughly 5,100 keeps coming back. Members can also visit Club R's sister location in Edmonton, extending the same vetted, inclusive lifestyle experience across Alberta.

The Velvet Rope

Portland, OR

The Velvet Rope (TVR) is Portland's longest-running on-premises social and lifestyle club, tucked away in a quiet, unassuming building on SE Cesar E. Chavez Boulevard. Spanning roughly 10,000 square feet across two floors, the 21-and-over venue bills itself as a sex-positive, judgment-free space where individuals, couples and polycules of all identities and experience levels can connect, play or simply soak up the vibe. New guests are walked through the club on a guided tour and signed in at the front desk; the crowd is a mix of long-time regulars and lifestyle newcomers, and the staff lean heavily on a consent-first culture backed by clear house rules. The club runs Friday and Saturday nights from 8 p.m. to 3 a.m. and Sundays from 8 p.m. to 2 a.m., with a rotating calendar of themed parties — Newbie Night, Savage Saturdays, Sex in the Sundae, plus kink nights, rope demos, speed dating and glow parties. Entry is members-first: a couples membership runs $70 for six months or $110 for a year, single ladies $40/$60, and single men $95/$135, with reduced door fees, special member-only events and a fast-track member line as perks. Non-members can buy a one-night pass at the door (couples $50–$80, single ladies $10–$20, single men $55–$90 depending on the night), and a government-issued ID is required at every visit. Two full bars operate inside, so guests must be 21+; per OLCC rules, no marijuana in any form is allowed on the property. Inside, the space is built for both play and comfort: a large dance floor with a live DJ, pole stations and a dance cage; social lounges with pool tables and stage performances; multiple open and private play areas including a couples-only room and a caged sex swing; hardpoints for rope suspension and other kink exploration; indoor and outdoor hot tubs with adjacent showers stocked with free towels, body wash and shampoo; and lockers on both levels (BYO lock or buy one at the desk). Dress code is enforced — clubwear or business-casual on regular nights, theme-appropriate attire on kink, glow and formal events — with no sweats, flip-flops or gym wear. Knives, needles, tasers, guns (real or replica), candles and unapproved electro gear are barred from the playrooms, and the venue maintains hard limits on scat, watersports, fire, blood, breath and wax play. Three free parking lots sit nearby, credit and debit cards are accepted at the desk, and an ATM is right next door.

Shameless Grounds - ENM Night

St. Louis, MO

Off-Premise Club

Shameless Grounds is a sex-positive cafe in the Benton Park neighborhood of south St. Louis, Missouri, operating since 2011. On the fourth Friday of most months it hosts ENM Night, a ticketed social mixer for people practicing or curious about Ethical Non-Monogamy -- swingers, polyamorous folks, and those in open marriages are all welcome. The regular coffeeshop space converts into an evening social scene with a full bar, drink specials, food, curated music, and icebreaker games to help guests mingle; most months the crowd spreads onto the patio. Because the cafe holds a City of St. Louis liquor license, no nudity or sexual activity is permitted on-site -- this is a flirtatious meet-and-greet, not a play party. ENM Night runs 6-10pm, with $10-per-person tickets sold in advance via the cafe's Square site. Dress code is upscale casual or sexy. House rules emphasize consent -- "no means no" -- and guests who become visibly intoxicated are cut off and asked to leave.

Bliss Cruise

Fort Lauderdale, FL

Cruise

Celebrating a decade on the water, Bliss Cruise is a full-ship charter lifestyle experience that charters some of the world's largest vessels including Royal Caribbean's Wonder of the Seas and Celebrity Reflection out of Fort Lauderdale and Miami for week-long voyages to Caribbean ports such as Cozumel, Aruba, Curacao, and Grand Turk. Founded around 2015 and operating under Bliss Mgt, LLC, it has grown into what the company describes as the world's largest lifestyle cruise event, with sailings carrying upwards of 6,000 guests on the biggest charters. Every sailing is strictly couples-only and reserved for adults 21 and older, with an atmosphere deliberately built around curiosity without pressure. Onboard, the experience is layered across multiple venues running more than 400 events per charter. Clothing-optional pools and hot tubs open up when the ship is at sea, while after dark the schedule shifts to daily themed parties fueled by international DJs and burlesque and erotic performances. Multiple dedicated play areas cover different energies: a couples-only playroom, a fetish dungeon, an all-passengers open room, and an outdoor space. Days fill out with meet-and-greet mixers, immersive seminars, and clothing-optional signature excursions in port. The crowd spans newcomers to seasoned regulars, and reviewers consistently note that friendliness aboard runs high. Consent culture is baked into the program: every guest must sign an Acceptable Behavior Policy at the dock before boarding, and photography is banned in clothing-optional areas, playrooms, and during theme nights. A dedicated Bliss App handles event scheduling, couple-to-couple messaging, and preference matching, making it the only lifestyle charter with its own purpose-built mobile platform.

Playful Friends

Unverified

Deptford, NJ

off-premise meet & greet (bar/restaurant venue)

Playful Friends is a lifestyle meet-and-greet social group serving the South Jersey and Philadelphia area, billing itself as home to the area's largest meet and greets in Deptford, NJ held once a month. Operating strictly off-premise, the group gathers at local venues rather than maintaining a dedicated club space, giving events a relaxed, bar-night feel rather than a nightclub atmosphere. Single men and single women are always welcome alongside couples, and the venue provides a full cash bar and dance floor, with smoking permitted outside only. For its monthly Deptford meetups, Playful Friends brings its own bartenders and provides free appetizers in a reserved private area, accessible via a banquet entrance, until 9:30 pm — after which the event opens into the wider venue. Beyond the regular monthly gathering, the group has partnered with other New Jersey lifestyle organizations for hotel and club takeovers, and organizes group attendance at lifestyle cruises, giving members a broader calendar of events throughout the year. The group's website is playfulfriends.net, and it is also listed on SwingLifestyle (SLS) for event RSVPs and member communication. The atmosphere is described as a casual environment for meeting new and familiar faces in the lifestyle, with no on-site playrooms — the focus is social mixing rather than on-premise activity.

The Crucible

Washington, DC

BDSM Club

Tucked into a residential stretch of Northeast DC near the Rhode Island Avenue Metro, The Crucible has operated as Washington's only private kink and alternate-lifestyles club since founder Frazier Botsford — known to regulars as Uncle Frazier — began building it in 1997. Organised as a 501(c)(7) non-profit private social club, the venue at 412 V Street NE holds a full dungeon fitted with bondage crosses, spanking benches, ropes, whips and handcuffs along the walls, plus a dedicated medical play area for piercing, needle and blood play, and a smaller private room for more intimate scenes. Dungeon Monitors trained by the Black Rose are on the floor at all events, and the crowd — spanning kinksters, lifestylers and curious newcomers of all orientations and genders — consistently draws praise for its warm, family-like atmosphere. The event calendar runs most Friday and Saturday nights, with 18-and-over play nights on Fridays (no alcohol) and 21-and-over nights with a full bar on Saturdays. Recurring themed nights include Black & Kinky (second Friday, POC-focused), QINK (third Friday), Sinfully Naughty (first Saturday), and Risqué EDM dance party (second Saturday). Black Rose holds weekly education at the venue every Tuesday and its monthly Gateway meeting on the first Thursday. The first Friday of every month is Dungeon 101 — doors open at 7:30pm and the structured presentation begins at 8pm, followed by an open exploratorium. No membership required for this event. Members may bring up to three guests. Annual membership is $40/person, purchased online; all applicants are screened against the DOJ sex-offender registry.

Splash Takeovers

Fort Lauderdale, FL

Hotel Takeover

Splash Takeovers is a traveling, couples-only lifestyle convention brand based in Fort Lauderdale, Florida, operating as Splash Takeovers Florida LLC. Rather than running a fixed clubhouse, it produces weekend-long hotel takeovers in three cities, each under its own banner: CouplesXcape in Fort Lauderdale — the brand's original September flagship — EROTICON in Atlanta, and Xcapades in the Houston area. The brand is owned by Richard and Danielle, a couple with more than twenty years of lifestyle-event experience who ran an on-premise weekend club and bed-and-breakfast for over a decade before acquiring Splash Takeovers, and event listings report attendance consistently topping 1,000 guests. Each event is a complete buyout of a four-star convention hotel: every room is purchased, only registered guests are allowed on property, and the hotel's name is disclosed only after a paid reservation. Days center on clothing-optional pool parties with DJs, games, and giveaways — the pool and convention areas are the only clothing-optional zones — while nights shift to themed dance parties in the Studio 69 Ballroom, fantasy-themed playrooms furnished through a partnership with Liberator, a dedicated dungeon for kink and BDSM play, and late-night hospitality suites. Seminars, meet-and-greets, and an adult vendor marketplace run throughout the weekend, and the host hotels are full-service properties with on-site restaurants and licensed bars; outside drinks are not permitted in public areas. Events run Thursday through Sunday, with arrival from 1:30 pm Thursday and checkout at 11 am Sunday. Packages are priced per couple and bundle the room with admission to everything; at the September 2025 Fort Lauderdale event, three-night packages ranged from $1,050 for a standard queen room to $2,200 for a one-bedroom king suite, with extra nights at $195 and payment plans available. Day passes, also priced per couple, go on sale 30 days before each event, and nothing is sold at the door. The optional Deep Divers premium membership ($149.99 for one year) adds online community access but not event admission. Upcoming dates include EROTICON in Atlanta August 6–9, 2026, CouplesXcape in Florida September 10–13, 2026, and Xcapades in Texas June 3–6, 2027.

Fallout RVA

Richmond, VA

alternative nightclub / fetish & kink club

Fallout has anchored Richmond's Shockoe Bottom since November 2007, earning its place as the city's longest-running goth, industrial, and fetish nightclub. Owner Jackie Bishop describes it as 'queer, a little bit kinky — basically a space for everybody that's just trying to find a place to belong.' The result is part nightclub, part community centre, part sanctuary at 117 N. 18th Street. The calendar runs seven nights a week: vinyl goth/EBM nights (Metal Beat), leather-and-latex fetish dance parties, drag showcases, rope-bondage socials, burlesque, goth karaoke, queer dance-therapy classes, and polyamory munches all coexist under one roof. Fridays and Saturdays extend to 2am. Some nights are members-only; others require a one-night pass via DM or Fetlife. A formal membership programme underlies the club's identity. Applications are in-person only — 21+, valid ID, dress code, and a member sponsor required; committee reviews take roughly two weeks. Members get free or discounted entry and may bring two guests. Non-members attend open events (18+) at cover charges typically $5–$15. Photography is banned outright; Virginia ABC law prohibits full nudity.

Dominium Vita

London, London

Members Club (Roaming)

Dominium Vita is a London-based private members society founded by Em Carter and Richard Burton, who built a community modelled on the culture of Ancient Rome — the club's name evoking complete ownership of one's life, its events referencing the opulent feasts and uninhibited pleasures of Roman society. The club has no fixed play premises: its registered address is a third-floor office on Paul Street in Shoreditch, but all events rotate across undisclosed private properties and hotels in London, with exact locations disclosed only to confirmed ticket-holders. Occasional events are also staged in Ibiza. The event calendar runs across several formats. Domus Luxuria nights are the main recurring play events. Carpe Noctem is the club's most theatrical production — described by the organisers as a night of dark theatrics and hedonism spread across five immersive spaces. Hidden Deviance gatherings convene in luxury private residences, opening with a social salon before dedicated playrooms. Monthly members socials at bars keep the wider community connected between play events, and a workshop strand has included sessions at the Mandrake Salon in Fitzrovia. BDSM apparatus is available at play events, with professional dominants on hand to guide unfamiliar guests. Entry is by membership only: applications are assessed personally by the founders against undisclosed criteria, and acceptance is not guaranteed. Tickets to events are sold on a first-come, first-served basis to approved members. The club welcomes singles, couples, and all genders; LGBTQ+ inclusive. Spectating is explicitly welcomed and participation is never required. A strict one-strike policy on consent violations applies — any breach results in immediate removal and permanent membership revocation.

Saunabar Bournemouth

Bournemouth, Dorset

Bath House

Saunabar sits at 140 Commercial Road in the Triangle, Bournemouth's LGBTQ+ quarter, and bills itself as the busiest gay sauna on the south-west coast. By day it runs as a men's spa: a dry sauna, steam room and jacuzzi, hot showers and private rest areas, plus a cosy lounge with a pool table and a fully licensed bar serving drinks alongside tea and coffee. On-site massage is available by appointment, and a single all-day admission covers the run of the place until closing. The same address takes on a second life after hours. On selected Friday and Saturday evenings Saunabar stays open for themed programming that broadens well beyond the daytime men-only door, and it doubles as the home of Bournemouth Swingers Club, whose couples-and-singles nights and inclusive socials run from the same rooms. Across the two identities the calendar covers trans nights, fetish evenings, naked sessions and all-welcome mixers, so depending on the day the venue reads as a quiet gay sauna or a full LGBTQ+ and swingers events space.

The X Club

Mississauga, Ontario

On-Premise Club

The X Club is a membership-based lifestyle nightclub at 1625 Sismet Road in Mississauga's industrial west end, billing itself as Canada's largest and most elegant venue of its kind. The club has operated for over nineteen years, drawing couples, single women, and pre-screened single men from across the Greater Toronto Area. All guests must be 21 or older; the club describes its typical crowd as ranging from 25 to 60, with the majority in their mid-thirties. A host team greets and tours first-timers, and a Newbie Night runs on the first Friday of each month — no annual membership required that night — offering a guided walkthrough and meet-and-greet with other newcomers. The venue houses two distinct environments under one roof. The main X Club floor is a full-production nightclub with resident DJs spinning Top 40, house, and techno, a full bar, lounge seating, and bottle service spanning Grey Goose to Dom Pérignon. The Mermaid Lounge — which operates under the @xclubmermaid social media brand — offers a spa-styled counterpart with plush seating, a specialty cocktail bar, a Himalayan dry sauna, a steam room, a glass group shower, and a year-round clothing-optional indoor pool. The play space divides into two sections: seven private themed rooms and a kink room (clothing optional, open to all), and an open play area with beds, couches, and an orgy room requiring guests to change into underwear, lingerie, towels, or go nude. Lockers with locks, showers, and towel service are included with all memberships. Regular hours are Friday and Saturday, 9 PM to 3 AM, with the front door closing at 2 AM. Saturdays are reserved exclusively for couples and single women. Single men are welcome on Fridays only, capped at fifteen per night, and are barred from the open play area on standard Fridays; this restriction is lifted on Freaky Friday (last Friday of each month). The calendar also includes weekday and Sunday events, sold-out themed Super Parties for New Year's Eve, Halloween, and St. Patrick's Day, and dedicated LGBTQIA2S+ programming including Pride nights and T-girl events. A monthly off-site social called The X Munch is held the last Thursday of each month at Capone's Cocktail Lounge. Photography, videography, and recording are prohibited throughout the venue except in a designated photo booth area; consent is mandatory throughout.

NYX Lounge

Oakville, Ontario

On-Premise Club

NYX Lounge is a members-only adult lifestyle and swinger club occupying a commercial unit at 407 Speers Road in Oakville, Ontario — a three-minute drive from the QEW and within easy reach of the GTA’s western corridor, drawing couples and singles from Mississauga, Burlington, Hamilton, and Toronto. The club positions itself as Ontario’s most upscale on-premise lifestyle venue, combining a full licensed nightclub floor with dedicated play spaces under one roof. The main floor centres on a large dance floor ringed by six high-definition screens, three dance poles, professional lighting, and a full club sound system. A staffed bar operates all night, with reserved bottle-service booths available in advance. An upstairs loft overlooks the dance floor below, doubling as a lounge and open-concept play space, while a back playroom off the main floor can run as an open group environment or a more private arrangement. Capacity is 325. Newcomers are paired with a host couple on arrival and given a guided tour. Weekly themed nights — recent examples include Flirty Friday, Latin Night, and Fantasy Friday — rotate through the calendar; the venue is also available for private weeknight rental. NYX runs every Friday and Saturday from 21:00 to 02:00. Membership is required: a Basic annual membership costs C$100 for couples or single men and C$40 for single ladies, with a C$80 one-night guest-pass option for couples. Nightly door fees apply on top — C$40 per couple, free for single ladies on standard nights (Halloween and New Year’s Eve excluded), and C$60 for single men with a valid Basic membership. Elite couples memberships bundle unlimited Friday and Saturday admission for C$500 (six months) or C$800 (one year), with New Year’s Eve and select themed Fridays partially excluded. A signed waiver and valid photo ID are required at entry; waivers can be completed in advance at nyxlounge.com/waiver.

The O Zone

Closed

Toronto, Ontario

Club

The O Zone, also marketed as O Couples Club (ocouplesclub.com), operated as one of the largest on-premise lifestyle clubs in North America from a 10,000-square-foot space at 36 Stoffel Drive in Etobicoke, a light-industrial pocket of northwest Toronto a short drive from Pearson International Airport. The club drew couples from across the Greater Toronto Area and regularly ran sellout themed events. The physical venue is now permanently closed; ocouplesclub.com redirects to takeabiteoftheapple.com, the events platform run under the TABOTA brand by the same operators. The space was built as a full-service nightclub as much as a play venue. A large central dance floor was ringed by poles, dance cages, go-go platforms, and a laser-and-light show, with a fully stocked licensed bar and food service on party nights. Intimate lounge areas offered seating for couples who preferred to watch or socialise, while a back section housed themed rooms, private play rooms, and locker rooms with showers. Nudity and intimate contact were not permitted in the bar or dance areas — play was restricted to the dedicated back rooms. Large themed events were a signature of the operation, most notably the annual TABOTA Mardi Pardi, a recurring sellout. When operating, the club ran Thursday through Saturday from 9 pm to 3 am on a members-only basis; annual membership was bundled into a guest's first-night charge, with a Platinum tier for recurring access. Fridays were mix-and-mingle nights open to couples and singles of all genders; Saturdays admitted couples and single women only, with unaccompanied men turned away. Minimum age was 21. Dress code barred athletic shoes, baggy jeans, ball caps, beach shorts, and sportswear.

TABOTA Events

Toronto, Ontario

Event Organizer

TABOTA Events is a Toronto-based lifestyle event organizer that has run couples-focused takeovers and getaways across Canada since 2007. Rather than operating a single venue, TABOTA produces a rotating slate of ticketed events, including the Halloween-themed Monster Bash hotel takeover in Niagara Falls, the outdoor Teddy Bare Picnic clothing-optional camping weekend, the Valentines in Niagara convention, and the seasonal Sandy Bottoms Resort in Central Ontario. The company is run by the same team behind The O Zone, an established Toronto swingers club. Each TABOTA event takes over its venue entirely, whether a hotel, campground, or resort, creating an adults-only space with DJ-driven dance floors, themed lounges, clothing-optional pool areas, and dedicated play rooms staffed by event hosts. Photography and phone use are banned in event spaces, and organizers emphasize enthusiastic consent, on-site security, and guest privacy, with pseudonym use common among attendees. Events are couples-only (male-female or female-female pairs); single men are not admitted, though single women may attend select dates. Entry is 19+ and ticketed in advance. Monster Bash pricing, for example, runs from roughly $169 per person for weekend access up to $439 per person for a two-night hotel package, plus tax, with a mandatory per-person credit for food and drinks due at check-in. Tickets are sold through tabotaevents.com and its event-specific sites, and organizers note that events routinely sell out weeks in advance.

Lux Velvet

Ottawa, Ontario

Roving Events / Pop-Up

Lux Velvet is an Ottawa-based sex-positive party collective founded in December 2018 by Nicole Murphy and Alexandria Nuttal — two queer women who set out to build a non-monogamous community where women, LGBTQ+ people, and those new to open relationships could gather without the unsafe or exclusionary atmospheres they had encountered at established adult venues. Female-owned and operated, the collective welcomes swingers, polyamorous individuals and couples, people in open relationships, and the broadly curious, organized around consent, vetting, and discretion. Rather than occupying a fixed club space, Lux Velvet rotates through hotels, private bars, breweries, and private venues across Ottawa; the membership skews toward the 25–45 age range, though all adults 19+ are eligible to attend. The collective runs two distinct event formats. Public Mixers and themed Dance Parties — held approximately every other month at rotating Ottawa venues — are open to anyone 19+ and deliberately social in tone: music is kept at conversational volume and past editions have included art nights with professional nude models, game nights, and themed dance parties, as well as collaborations with other Ottawa sex-positive venues. Members-only play parties are a separate, invite-only tier hosted at vetted private venues, with location details shared only with ticketed members. Founders Nicole and Alexandria are present at every event and are available to members throughout the evening. The collective has partnered with adult wellness brands including Lelo, Liberator, and ScreamingO. Mixer tickets are priced at approximately C$15–C$20 in advance and C$20–C$25 at the door, with a discounted member rate; members-only play-party tickets are priced separately, typically C$45–C$65+ per event. Annual membership costs C$65 plus tax and requires attending a Mixer first, then completing a no-cost 30-minute video vetting call with one of the founders. Members sign a legally binding consent-and-confidentiality waiver, photography and recording devices are prohibited at all events, and a one-strike policy applies to all rule violations. Accessibility varies by host venue and is disclosed on each individual event listing.

Escapades New England

Providence, RI

Event Organizer

Escapades New England is a Providence-based lifestyle event group that has built a loyal following across Rhode Island and Massachusetts since its founding. Rather than operating a fixed club, the organizers take over Platforms Dance Club — a nightclub at 165 Poe St in Providence — for recurring themed parties, blending a nightclub energy with on-site play spaces including an open play area and a dungeon setup within the venue. The calendar runs on two tiers: regular takeover parties throughout the year, priced at $60–80 per couple (never more), and two flagship annual events that draw attendees from across New England. The Annual Midsummer Nights’ Wet Dream Foam Party, held at the end of July, is billed as the largest summer lifestyle event in New England and described by the organizers as a ‘Hedo-style’ party. The Erotic Masquerade Ball follows every September or October. Events are listed and ticketed through the SLS, SDC, and SwingTowns platforms. The organizers emphasize a newcomer-friendly atmosphere, noting they actively work to make first-timers feel at ease — a philosophy shaped by their own experience attending their first party. The ethos is summed up on their site as ‘confidence, class, and respect.’ Payment is accepted as cash or Venmo at the door, and attendees must present a verified screen name from one of the partner lifestyle platforms.

Le Boudoir Club

London, London

On-Premise Club

Le Boudoir is a members-only lifestyle and ENM (ethically non-monogamous) club operating on Old Castle Street in London’s E1, within walking distance of Aldgate East tube station and a short journey from Liverpool Street. Running since 2015 and hosting over 150 ticketed events a year, the venue requires advance online registration — applicants submit photographs for review, approval is not automatic, and no walk-ins are accepted under any circumstances. The minimum age is 21, with photo ID verified at the door on every night. The club occupies three floors. The ground level holds a fully licensed bar, a DJ booth, a dance pole, and a mezzanine terrace well-suited for socialising and people-watching. The upper floor runs a collection of private lockable rooms — including a mirrored cubby hole, a dark-academia-themed study room, and a large open group room — while the basement functions as a fully fitted dungeon equipped with a St Andrew’s Cross, cage, sex swings, glory holes, and curtained alcove beds. Bathrooms are available on every floor and lockers are provided. Phones are surrendered at check-in and held until the end of the evening; reviewers consistently credit this policy with maintaining a crowd — predominantly working professionals in their mid-thirties — that is polite, unhurried, and non-pushy. Events run on Thursdays and most Fridays and Saturdays. Thursday sessions typically run 19:00–23:30 and are themed around hotwife and couples events, with a limited number of single men admitted; Friday and Saturday parties run 21:30–03:00, with Saturdays reserved for couples and single women only. Entry is by pre-purchased ticket only, sold through the club’s website and Eventbrite; tickets are non-refundable and carry a £30 transfer fee. The bar is fully licensed — outside alcohol is not permitted — with cocktails priced around £15 and bottled water around £3. A £20 refundable cash deposit is collected at the door for locker use. Dress code is strictly enforced: smart-sexy attire is required, with formal dark trousers, collared shirts, and dress shoes for men, and lingerie or quality dresses with appropriate footwear for women; multiple categories of casualwear are explicitly prohibited at the door.

Club AntiChrist

London, London

Fetish Club Night

Club AntiChrist launched in 2004 under promoter d.Void at Camden's Electric Ballroom, before being relaunched in 2007 by Missy with a full multi-room format that included five live bands and several dancefloors. Over the following years it moved through a string of London venues — Colosseum, Electrowerkz, Fire, and others — before settling at Scala, the 1920s-built former cinema at 275 Pentonville Road in King's Cross. Self-billed as ‘Goth Fetish Industrial Metal Mayhem,’ the night draws from overlapping worlds of metal, goth, industrial music, performance art, and fetish subculture. Queer-friendly and inclusive by design, it marked its 21st year in 2025 and is one of London's longest-running alternative events. Scala's multi-floor layout accommodates five distinct zones. Three dancefloors cover different sonic territories: The Hole runs metal, the Hellfire Room handles goth, post-punk, and dark electro, and The Foyer covers 80s and new romantic sounds and hosts a shibari corner. The Theatre of Sin stages live bands and continuous performances — fire acts, aerial work, burlesque, comedy, and cabaret — throughout the night. The Dungeon is a purpose-fitted BDSM play space equipped by Benchmarxxx with a St Andrew's Cross, spanking benches, a gynae chair, and a swing; experienced Dungeon Monitors wearing flashing lanyards supervise throughout and may halt unsafe play. A separate dark playroom offers more privacy for couples and groups. An outdoor garden provides a retreat, hot food is served on-site, and the building has gender-neutral toilets, a cloakroom, and ATMs. Events run roughly five to six times per year at Scala, typically themed — a birthday party each June, vampire balls in September, a ‘Not NYE’ party in early January, and occasional themed specials. Doors open at 9pm; last entry is at 2am and the venue runs until 6am. Advance tickets are sold via Dice.fm at approximately £36.50 per person (prices vary by tier and event); door entry is £40 cash. All attendees must be 18 or over and present original physical photo ID — driving licence, passport, or PASS hologram card; digital copies are refused. An enforced alternative dress code requires goth, punk, fetishwear, PVC, rubber, lace, cosplay, or similar; the stated minimum is ‘Alt-Comfortable: combats, band tee, boots.’ Street clothes, regular denim, white trainers, and standard suits are refused at the door.

On-Premise Club

Happy Hedonist is a lifestyle club that has catered to swingers, voyeurs, and exhibitionists in the Greater Toronto Area since the early 1990s. Operating as an upscale on-premise swinger club, it built a following as one of the largest lifestyle venues in southern Ontario, welcoming couples and select single players through a community that blended online engagement — chat rooms, contact ads, and message boards — with weekly on-site parties. The club's home was Jeanie's, a licensed venue at 5977 Dixie Road in Mississauga, where it occupied more than 10,000 square feet across two levels. The space featured two bars, a licensed smoking patio, and a seasonal outdoor play area included in general admission at no extra charge. Staff were noted for welcoming newcomers with guided walk-throughs, and the club consistently emphasised making first-timers feel comfortable alongside experienced regulars. Weekly parties ran on Fridays (doors at 9:30 pm) and Saturdays (doors at 9:00 pm). The club announced a move to an undisclosed larger location, but no confirmed new address has been publicly identified. As of August 2026, the original Dixie Road premises have been taken over by unrelated businesses, and the club's website is non-functional.

Mint Tease

London, London

Pop-Up Event Series

Mint Tease is the play-party arm of Mint Events London, a queer women's events brand founded in 2006 by Nicola Chubb. Known as the promiscuous wing of the long-running Mint brand, it operates as a roving East London pop-up rather than at a fixed address: a series of periodic erotic events staged in private, unlisted venues and designed exclusively for queer women, femmes, thems, non-binary guests, and bi and curious women. The format sits at a studied remove from the conventional sex-club aesthetic — events are curated around comfort, consent, and community as much as play, drawing a crowd spanning ages and experience levels, from first-timers to Mint regulars. Recent editions have taken over The Old Dispensary at 19a Leman Street, East London (E1 8EN), a multi-floor space a short walk from Aldgate East and Liverpool Street stations. Three floors carry a cocktail bar with DJ sets, a ground-floor social and performance area, private playrooms, an open playroom with antique furnishings and fireplaces, and a fully equipped BDSM dungeon with suspension apparatus. On-site dominatrices facilitate activities and offer orientations for newcomers; the atmosphere is described as relaxed and consent-centred. Mint Tease events run periodically through the year — there is no fixed weekly cadence. A daytime variant, Twilight Tease, holds afternoon sessions (typically 3 pm–8 pm) in smaller private venues. Standard events run roughly 8 pm–1 am. Tickets are sold in advance only through a verification process: prospective attendees complete an application form before purchase; returning verified guests receive access codes by email. Recent ticket prices have sat at £55 (early bird) to £60 (final release) plus booking fees. Entry closes strictly at 10 pm, with organisers recommending arrival before 9 pm. Government-issued photo ID is mandatory. The dress code enforces self-expression: leather, lace, lingerie, harnesses, corsets, and heels are the expectation; streetwear and light denim are turned away at the door.

Oasis Aqualounge

Toronto, Ontario

On-Premise Club

Oasis Aqualounge is a water-themed, clothing-optional adult spa and social club occupying a 9,000-square-foot restored 19th-century mansion at 231 Mutual Street in downtown Toronto. Open since 2010 to all guests aged 19 and over, the club does not describe itself as a swinger club — it positions as a body-positive, consent-forward venue drawing a broad community: monogamous couples, polyamorous individuals, kink enthusiasts, and guests who want spa facilities in a sex-positive setting without expectation of partner activity. Admission covers a day membership, locker access, and towel service; no separate ongoing membership is required. The crowd typically spans the mid-thirties to mid-fifties, and the venue has been recognised four times as one of Canada's fastest-growing businesses (2019, 2020, 2024, and 2025). The centrepiece is a year-round outdoor heated pool — maintained near 100°F in winter — set within a private courtyard flanked by a hot tub and a dry sauna. Two licensed bars serve alcohol and soft drinks across the property, with poolside patio seating for guests moving between the spa and social areas. Play areas span four floors and include a dungeon equipped with a swing and a St. Andrew's Cross, plus a private room on the fourth floor that any guest can reserve in one-hour increments at no extra charge. Staff known as Aquaflirt hosts circulate throughout, offering tours for first-time visitors and facilitating introductions. A colour-coded silicone wristband system near the entrance lets guests signal their openness to interaction. Oasis is open 1pm to 3am, 362 days a year (last admission 2am; closed Christmas Eve, Christmas Day, and one Monday in December for maintenance). Fridays and Saturdays are reserved for women and couples only; solo men may attend Sunday through Thursday. Approximately once a month — typically the fourth Monday — the club runs Sapphic Aquatica, an event exclusively for women and trans guests. Door prices include HST: solo women pay CAD $15 (Sun–Thu) or $25 (Fri–Sat); couples pay $100 or $115 respectively; solo men pay $100 on eligible weekdays. No outside drinks are permitted. Walk-ins are welcome most nights, though high-demand events may require advance booking via the online ticket calendar.

Leisure with Pleasure

Unverified

Leicester, Leicestershire

On-Premise Club

Leisure with Pleasure — also traded as Club 29, Club 29 Swing Club, and Bond Street Retreat — occupies a discreet address at 29 New Bond Street in Leicester city centre. It bills itself as Leicester's only alternative sauna for the lifestyle-curious and the more adventurous, and has operated under various names at the same location for many years. The NHS has formally recognised the address as a sexual health outreach venue, with Leicester Sexual Health services running a monthly drop-in clinic there offering free condoms, STI testing, and advice. The venue spreads across three floors. Upper floors contain spa facilities — a hot tub, sauna, and steam room — alongside a cinema room, a dark fetish room equipped with a swing and cross, showers, and private rooms. Reviewers also describe playrooms, a dungeon area, and a disco-and-party room. The club maintains a strict drug-free policy, and multiple guests note that staff are approachable and willing to walk newcomers through the space. Reviewers are divided on atmosphere: several praise the clean, friendly environment, while others have criticised cramped conditions and dated décor. Google-listed hours indicate daytime sessions on Wednesday, Friday, and Sunday, though schedules and current entry fees could not be independently verified — the club's official website is not currently accessible.

Cedar Creek Resort

Leesville, SC

Lifestyle Resort

Cedar Creek Resort has been South Carolina's go-to clothing-optional getaway since 1989 — 43 wooded acres along Black Creek, about ten minutes south of I-20 between Columbia and Augusta. The property packs in an indoor pool (heated for major event weekends), an outdoor pool, indoor and outdoor hot tubs, nearly half a mile of natural lazy-river creek for tubing, a sand volleyball court, corn hole, petanque, horseshoes, hiking trails through the woods, and a creek-side dock for sunbathing. The clubhouse has a full bar, a pool table, dart board, and hosts DJ dances every Saturday night and karaoke most Fridays year-round. Overnight options run from a cabin with queen bed and full bath to five huts with AC, primitive tent sites near the clubhouse, powered tent sites, and full-hookup RV lots that handle rigs up to 85 feet on 20/30/50 amp service — Passport America and Escapees members get 50% off RV sites outside festival weeks. Day visitors pay $35 off-season or $67 in prime season (April–September plus holiday weekends), and a $25 provisional annual membership is required for all non-members. Single women receive 50% off across the board; student and military couples under 26 get 20% off. Anyone staying past 1 am pays a $21 night fee. The vibe is relaxed and clothing-optional — nudity is welcome but never mandatory, and house rules keep it community-pool appropriate in public areas. Themed parties rotate weekly (Naughty Nautical, Bunny Party, Body Jewelry & Boots, Shakespeare Night) with Nudestock as the big annual summer festival and prime holiday weekends for New Year's, Halloween, Valentine's, and St. Patrick's. The crowd is genuinely diverse in age, shape, and background, and repeat visitors consistently praise the welcoming atmosphere even if the rustic setting won't be mistaken for a luxury resort. Dogs are allowed, the grounds have free WiFi and laundry, and the front office closes at 6 pm (8 pm on event nights).

Angel of Love

Roth, Bavaria

On-Premise Lifestyle Club

Set in an industrial quarter on the southern edge of Roth bei Nürnberg — just off the B2 with direct access to the A9 and A6 motorways — Angel of Love has established itself as one of Bavaria’s most prominent lifestyle destinations. The freshly renovated venue covers more than 2,000 square metres wrapped behind a discreet exterior, fitted out to a contemporary standard with premium audio, modern lighting, and a warmly styled interior that reads as upscale private event rather than nightclub. Jasmin and Markus Herrmann, who took over operations in early 2025 and draw on years of personal experience in the swinger community, describe the house philosophy as openness and tolerance without pressure — a space to explore freely among like-minded people, whether for a seasoned regular or a curious first-timer.

L'Orage Club

Montreal, Quebec

On-Premise Club

L'Orage Club is a private, members-only on-premise swingers club located at 7700 12e Avenue in Montreal, Quebec. Founded in 1996 by Jean-Paul Labaye, it operates as an open-concept venue featuring a bar lounge, a discotheque with resident DJs, and two floors of open-plan play areas. The club holds a Quebec liquor licence and describes its format as European in style, with an emphasis on exhibitionism and voyeurism; there are no private or closed rooms. The club gained national legal significance after a 1998 police raid triggered criminal proceedings against founder Jean-Paul Labaye. The case proceeded through the courts for seven years, culminating in December 2005 when the Supreme Court of Canada ruled in Labaye's favour in R. v. Labaye, [2005] 3 SCR 728. The ruling established the legal standard — the harm-based test — by which consensual adult sexual activity in a semi-public venue is assessed under the Criminal Code of Canada, effectively providing a legal framework for the operation of such clubs across the country. L'Orage Club continues to operate as of 2026, running events Thursday through Sunday. It describes an international clientele drawn from Canada, the United States, and Europe, and describes itself as one of Canada's longest-continuously-operating clubs of its type. The website and all public communications are exclusively in French.

Xtasia

West Bromwich, West Midlands

mixed

Established in the 1980s, Xtasia describes itself as the UK's longest-running swingers club, sitting behind an ironwork fence on High Street in West Bromwich. The complex has grown into a dual-venue operation: the main Xtasia Nightclub on one side and the adjacent Flirts Bar, Hotel and Cinema on the other, sharing the same gated grounds. A staff member walks first-timers around the entire site on arrival, and on a busy night the club draws well over 100 couples, with major events topping 300 guests. The Xtasia side centres on a large ground-floor dance arena with a fully licensed bar and themed playrooms and a dungeon spread across multiple levels. Flirts adds a cinema, bar, further playrooms, a boutique, a naturist sun deck, and hotel accommodation in double, dormitory, and quadruple rooms. The Flirts Spa is the newest addition — a swim spa with current-resistance jets, an eight-seat infrared sauna, an eight-seat steam room, a small gym, and communal locker facilities. In 2014 the club was voted the number-one swingers venue in the UK by the authors of Sex in the Cities. The main nightclub runs Friday and Saturday from 8pm to 3am (last entry 1am); the Flirts bar is open Monday to Thursday noon to midnight and noon to 8pm on Fridays and Saturdays. Membership is required for all events and must be arranged in advance online: couples pay a one-off lifetime fee of £20, single females £10 lifetime, and single males £40 per year. Single males must receive a written acceptance email before attending. Entry prices vary by event and are published in the online diary.

The Vanilla Alternative

Tempsford, Bedfordshire

On-Premise Club

The Vanilla Alternative is a private members' lifestyle venue set within The Anchor Lodge Hotel on the A1 Great North Road in Tempsford, Bedfordshire, roughly midway between Bedford and St Neots. Operated by The Anchor Inn Tempsford Limited, the club draws members from across England, with free on-site parking for up to 200 vehicles and on-site hotel accommodation available for event attendees. Membership is required before attending; applications are reviewed within 72 hours and carry an annual fee of £25. All guests must be aged 21 or over. The venue features a fully licensed bar and dance floor, multiple playrooms, a dungeon with a swing, and a large hot tub that member reviews consistently describe as the social centrepiece of each evening. More than 150 lockers and showers are available on-site, and condoms are provided throughout. The on-site hotel at The Anchor Lodge is bookable through the club's website, with check-in from 5pm and check-out by 11:30am; a shuttle bus service runs to and from nearby Premier Inn locations for those staying off-site. Staff offer welcome tours for first-timers and a consent culture is maintained throughout. The weekly programme runs on Fridays (Freedom Friday, 20:00–02:30) and Saturdays (Saturday Seduction, 20:00–03:00). Freedom Friday admits couples, single females, and — in a capped allocation to preserve gender ratios — single males who must pre-book; advance tickets are £35 per couple, £10 per single female, and £40 for single males. Saturday Seduction is couples and ladies only, with advance tickets at £45 per couple and £15 per single female; single males are not admitted on Saturdays. The calendar also includes a monthly Bi Night, Milf Club sessions, the Onyx interracial night, and an annual Festival of Fun weekender. The venue is fully licensed — no outside alcohol is permitted — and mobile phones and recording devices are not allowed inside. A smart-dress code applies on arrival; guests entering any play space must dress down to lingerie, underwear, robes, or less.

Nightshade Halifax

Halifax, Nova Scotia

Event Organizer

Nightshade is a series of kinky themed costume parties held periodically in Halifax, Nova Scotia, drawing on more than a decade of history since its launch in February 2013. Run by organiser Chris Awesome, the events sit deliberately at the threshold between mainstream nightlife and the alternative lifestyle scene — approachable enough for curious first-timers, while incorporating genuine BDSM and fetish elements. Thousands of attendees spanning newcomers, lifestyle veterans, and the simply curious have passed through its doors, and the series has become a fixture of Halifax's alternative community calendar. Nightshade is not a fixed-venue club but a roving event series that takes over the 3rd-floor ballroom of the Best Western Plus Chocolate Lake Hotel (250 St Margarets Bay Rd, Halifax NS) for the night. Each party carries a distinct theme — past and upcoming events include Wasteland, Kinky Colours, Dark Masquerade, and Kinky Halloween — with resident DJs Gyrrrl on Decks and DJ Mike G spinning pop, rock, and top-40 sets across the dance floor. A dungeon corner is a consistent feature: heavy-duty bondage furniture staffed by Dungeon Masters and Monitors who can instruct guests and maintain safety. Body painting stations appear at select events. The hotel bar is cash-only and hotel-operated, with domestic beer and well shots at $7 CAD, premium spirits and imported beers at $8, and soft drinks at $4. Events run roughly 9pm-1am on Saturday nights (approximately four to six times a year), and advance tickets are $25 plus tax — many events sell out weeks ahead. At-the-door tickets, when available, are $32 plus tax. Valid government-issued photo ID confirming age 19+ is required at the door. Personal cameras and recording devices are prohibited; credentialed event photographers may attend by prior arrangement. Coat check is $3. The Kinky Colours event is part of the Halifax Pride Festival calendar, and hotel room blocks at negotiated group rates are offered for each event. A volunteer program is available for those who want to attend but need help covering the cost.

Obsession Swing Lounge

Unverified

Ottawa, Ontario

On-Premise Club

Obsession Swing Lounge is a members-only adult lifestyle and swinger club at 1575 St. Laurent Boulevard in Ottawa, Ontario. Billing itself as the city's premier on-premise swinger venue, it holds a provincial liquor licence and requires couples and select singles to register as annual members before attending their first event. The interior centres on an upscale lounge with a resident DJ — guests are encouraged to make requests — designed for dancing and socialising before moving to the dedicated play areas. A full kitchen delivers appetizers, main courses, and desserts until 1:30am, and drinks are served from the licensed bar. The main lounge and patio are strictly social zones; all sexual contact is confined to the separate designated play areas. The venue is entirely smoke-free, and the dress code holds women to a seductive standard and men to a dapper, club-appropriate appearance. The weekly schedule divides along membership type: Friday nights open the doors to all categories — couples, single men, and single women; Saturdays are restricted to couples and single women, with the limited exception that a single male member may attend only if accompanied by and remaining with a host couple all evening. Annual membership is CAD $50 for couples and single men, and CAD $30 for single women; nightly entry is CAD $40 per couple or single man, while single women enter free. Advance registration is mandatory — no walk-in admission is indicated. House rules ban photos and video during regular hours without explicit management consent and subject approval, prohibit drugs outright, and run a three-complaint escalation system for single men.

Club Privata

Portland, OR

On-Premise Club

Club Privata occupies a discreet, unmarked storefront at 824 SW 1st Ave in downtown Portland, Oregon — easy to walk past without noticing. Billing itself as an upscale "lifestyle club" rather than a sex club, it emphasizes community alongside play, and draws a crowd that skews toward an older demographic, roughly mid-30s to 40s, with plenty of members who come just to dance. The club is run by owners Holly R. and her husband Charles. The venue spans three floors and roughly 8,000 square feet, anchored by a hardwood dance floor lit in blues and magentas with a central go-go cage on a raised platform. The first floor holds the main bar, a locker area, and a room dedicated to flogging and impact play. The second floor adds another bar, a VIP room, private bedrooms, and a balcony overlooking the dance floor. The third floor houses a further bar and a spread of beds framed by drapes and antique mirrors. A late-night buffet is set up near the lockers and coat check, and the club runs two full-service bars rather than allowing outside alcohol. Club Privata is a members-only, 21-and-over venue open Thursday through Saturday nights (Thursday 8pm–2am with the third floor closed; Friday and Saturday 8pm–3am), with last entry roughly 90 minutes before close. Entry requires valid photo ID, a signed waiver, an active membership, and payment of a nightly door fee that varies by event and guest category; a strictly enforced upscale dress code applies club-wide. Single men are welcome but pay noticeably higher membership and door fees than couples or single women, and some theme nights offer discounted or free entry for single women. VIP bottle service areas and a private penthouse suite can be reserved separately.

Chateau Royal

Bad Honnef, North Rhine-Westphalia

On-Premise Club

Chateau Royal sits in the forested Siebengebirge hills above the Rhine, tucked into the edge of Bad Honnef roughly halfway between Bonn and Cologne. The club presents itself as the largest and most popular pure couples club in North Rhine-Westphalia — a claim supported by the numbers: 870 square metres spread across three levels, capacity for 120 couples, and a packed calendar of themed nights running back-to-back year-round.

PolyUrban Studios

Carmichael, CA

PolyUrban Studios is a home-based adult lifestyle space on North Avenue in Carmichael, California, run by owner Rey Bonilla and open to singles, couples, and polycules of all orientations. The venue operates as a donation-funded club with lockers, showers, a hot tub, beds, a sling, play benches, a massage table, a rimming chair, gloryholes, and an outdoor play area with a separate shower. Towels, condoms, and lube are provided, and fetish wear is welcomed. The weekly calendar runs seven days: Sunday through Thursday the doors open at 11:30 a.m. and close at 10 p.m., while Friday and Saturday sessions run from 2 p.m. to 2 a.m. Themed parties rotate through the week — Sunday gloryhole and gangbang sessions, Monday-through-Thursday afternoon playdates, a Wednesday evening afterparty, a Thursday couples night, Freaky Friday parties, and Saturday dance nights with a DJ and a full bar on select evenings. Membership contributions start at $25 per person, $40 for couples, and $60 for triads, with a $10 happy-hour rate between noon and 1 p.m. The atmosphere is explicitly pressure-free: no participation is required, and the posted house rules lead with No means no — ask for consent. Cameras and recording devices are banned, smoking is permitted outside only, and the doorman reserves the right to refuse entry. Guests must be 18 or older, and drugs and prostitution are strictly prohibited. Contact is by text or voicemail at (916) 410-6550.

Syn in Tulsa

Unverified

Tulsa, OK

Syn in Tulsa is a female-focused lifestyle club founded in 2014 by Troy and Christy Hamilton and operates from a discreet suite at 5553 S Peoria Ave with the deliberate look of a regular office building. The entrance opens into a social area with bar-style seating, couches, a dance floor, a kitchen stocked with complimentary soda and water, unisex bathrooms, a selfie wall, cubby storage, and an outdoor smoking area. Behind that sits the main playroom with four beds, several couches, and a St Andrews cross, plus the Brat Realignment Center equipped with an obedience chair and spanking bench. Parties run Saturday nights only, doors at 8 pm and the party in full swing by 9 pm until 2 am. The venue operates a full-service bar and is not BYOL. Cover is $20 per couple, $40 for single males, and free for single women. All attendees must be 21+ and receive a bracelet at check-in. The club averages 100-200 guests per party with a wide range of ages, body types, and orientations. Owner Troy Hamilton built Syn around a safe place for women to fulfil their fantasies philosophy. Single males cannot enter the playrooms unless escorted by a couple or solo woman. A dedicated floor manager circulates the play areas. Solo women can arrange a staff escort from the parking lot. The club encourages regular STD testing and offers a $20 cover discount on presentation of a recent test receipt.

PLUR Productions / Studio PLUR

Vancouver, British Columbia

Event Organizer

PLUR Productions is Vancouver's longest-running sex-positive and alternative-fetish event production company, operating under the guiding philosophy of Peace, Love, Unity, and Respect. Founded by ScottyHotty (Scott BreitKreuz) and tracing its roots to Club8X6 — formerly Vancouver's only privately licensed members-only sex venue — PLUR has grown into an independent producer serving the city's fetish, kink, BDSM, swinger, burner, rave, and LGBTQ+ communities. The company celebrated its 12th annual Mad Hatter's Player Ball in May 2026 and operates as a private membership club in which the door fee for any event constitutes a day membership, consistent with the Supreme Court of Canada's recognition of consensual adult activity in private clubs. Events take place across rotating venues: large-format ticketed parties at licensed nightclubs including The Penthouse, warehouse-style PLURHAUS nights at private locations, the VANTANIOR techno series at a Railtown venue equipped with a Funktion-One sound system, and seasonal PLUR Mansion house parties. All events feature clearly marked sex-on-premise (SOP) play areas alongside social lounge zones, DJ music, stage performances, and a licensed full bar at ticketed venues. Complimentary towels, condoms, lubricants, and lockers are provided with entry. Running parallel to these events is Studio PLUR, a privately bookable dungeon and social space with a 40-guest maximum — outfitted with a St. Andrew's cross, three styled benches, a rope-suspension rig, a floor cage, a corner bar with fridge, pro-audio sound, and a walk-in rainfall shower. Tickets for public events are sold in advance via Eventbrite; per-person pricing ranges from $35 to $40 CAD with no differential between genders or attendance types. Site memberships are available at $30 CAD for six months or $40 CAD for one year, though the door fee alone grants day membership. All guests must be 19 or older. Before entry, PLUR's Cupid consent hosts walk each guest through the club's Top Ten Rules of Consent and issue a consent stamp. Open photography and video recording — including mobile phone use — are prohibited throughout all venues. The recurring iCandy Meet and Mingle, held every second Friday, provides first-timers with a venue tour, a lifestyle presentation, and conversation with experienced PLUR attendees.

Entre Nous 2

Closed

Montreal-Nord, Quebec

Entre Nous 2 — later rebranded as Le Complexe Libertin Obsession — was a lifestyle and libertine complex that operated at 6500 Boulevard Henri-Bourassa Est in Montreal-Nord, Quebec, from February 2017 until it permanently closed in June 2020 after the COVID-19 lockdown forced the business into bankruptcy. The club opened as the successor to Entre 2 Plaisirs, which had operated for 14 years at 3333 rue Belanger in Villeray-Saint-Michel-Parc-Extension, and relocated to a new building near the Autoroute 25 interchange whose frosted-glass exterior and minimal signage gave no indication of the 24,600-square-foot venue within. Its promoters billed it at opening as the largest swinger club in the world. The venue was organized around a wet social circuit — indoor heated pool, spa, dry sauna, and communal showers — designed to ease introductions before members moved into the main complex. A billiard room, dining room, and discotheque sat alongside a dark room, glory holes, a fantasy room, a dedicated couples room, and 26 private rooms rentable in three-hour or twelve-hour blocks; massage suites came in standard, mirrored, and suite configurations. In 2019 the owners annexed an adjacent commercial unit as a full nightclub, pushing the total footprint past 40,000 square feet; monthly themed events sometimes drew between 500 and 1,000 attendees. Annual membership was required of all guests. Per-visit admission was free for women; men paid $40 on weekdays and $60 on weekends; couples paid $20 on weekdays and $50 on weekends (all CAD, as of 2017-2020 operation). The club ran around the clock, seven days a week, with a Tuesday bi night and a Wednesday couples night open to unaccompanied men and women. Public areas were dry; BYOB was restricted to private rooms under the original 2017 operating rules. The venue declared bankruptcy within three weeks of the March 2020 lockdown and vacated the premises in early June 2020. Visitors should not attempt to visit this address.

Club Ambassador

Eisenberg, Thuringia

On-Premise Club

Club Ambassador sits just off the A9 autobahn near the Hermsdorfer Kreuz interchange, where Thuringia, Saxony, and Saxony-Anhalt converge. Owned by Marcus Schuetze, the club occupies a three-storey property spanning roughly 600 square metres with six themed rooms. The house motto: everything is possible, nothing is mandatory. The club holds a 4.9 out of 5 rating on JoyClub. Five distinct event formats cycle across the week. Wednesday Breakfast Party (10:00-18:00) and Sunday Brunch (13:00-18:00) offer relaxed daytime entry. Thursday Come in and Find Out evening (17:00-22:00) charges just 10 EUR across all guest categories. Friday Hot Friday (19:00-03:00) and Saturday Swinger Evening (19:00-03:00); Saturday all-inclusive packages at 99 EUR for couples, 33 EUR for women, and 119 EUR for single men, with JoyClub-member discounts. The three floors house six themed rooms including a Thai room, an atelier, and a fully equipped SM area, alongside a lounge with bar and dance floor, a separate smoking room, a sauna, and an outdoor pool and whirlpool. A buffet provides in-house dining, and overnight accommodation with breakfast is available.

Club Saphir

Schkeuditz, Saxony

On-Premise Club

Club Saphir has held its place as the longest-running swinger and couples club across Saxony, Saxony-Anhalt and Thuringia since it opened in 2002. The venue sits in Dolzig, a quiet village in the Schkeuditz municipality just west of Leipzig, at Westringstrasse 200. Inside, more than 900 square metres spread across two floors, with three bars, 15 individually designed rooms. The room list covers: Raum Amor for couples wanting a lockable retreat, the Ampelzimmer where a traffic-light system signals openness, a dedicated SM space, and the Lustoase open 80-square-metre play area. Communal infrastructure includes a sauna with whirlpool, a Wellness 4 Two zone, indoor smoking lounges. Entry is fully all-inclusive covering hot-and-cold buffet and complete drinks menu. Three nights anchor the calendar: first Wednesday of month Afterwork 2.0 17:00-00:00, Fridays 20:00-03:00, Saturdays 20:00-04:00. Solo men must register in advance. The house motto alles kann nichts muss sets the tone: participation is never assumed.

Club Utopia

Closed

Chudleigh, Devon

On-Premise Club

Club Utopia traces its roots to 2020, when owner Jamie Venner launched a biker-bar night called Bikers and Babes on the outskirts of Yelverton, Devon. A fire at a neighbouring property prompted a move, and the club spent time in Airbnbs and hired social-club halls before settling at Graeden Park — a discreet private property on Ball Hill off the Old Exeter Road outside Chudleigh. From those modest beginnings it grew into what the club describes as 'arguably the largest and most vibrant club in the southwest of England,' running a calendar of extravagantly themed events — UtopiaFest, Heroes and Villains, Halloween couples nights, Oktoberfest, Coyote Ugly, and a Greedy Girls women-forward evening — to a membership of couples, single women, and vetted single men from across the South West. The venue houses 11 immersive play spaces, a dancefloor with mirrored walls, a side hall, and social lounge zones, all served by a fully licensed bar trading until 3am. Event nights open at 7pm with dress codes pitched to the theme — festival glitter, costumes, Bavarian regalia — and a 360° photo booth available for those who want a memento. Entry follows a mandatory four-step pre-registration process: create a Single or Couple account, upload identity documents, pass staff review, then buy tickets. Couples are always welcome; single females are encouraged; single men are admitted in limited, pre-vetted numbers only. No walk-ins are accepted. Annual membership is available at a fee listed on the registration page, giving members ticket discounts and access to future event perks; individual event tickets were priced at £50 for the 2025 UtopiaFest festival night. The club also sells a companion book — 'A Real-Life Guide to Swinging with Style' — through the website, and maintains social media on Instagram and TikTok. As of July 2026 the operating company, Club Utopia Ltd (Companies House no. 15768206), was formally dissolved, and the website listed no upcoming events.

EyS Nightclub

Unverified

Hamburg, Hamburg

On-Premise Club

EyS occupies the first floor of an unremarkable building on Bramfelder Strasse in Hamburg Barmbek-Nord. Owners Caiti and Chris have leaned hard into 1990s nightclub aesthetics: a non-smoking main bar room of around 60 square metres packed with sofas, seating nooks, and a bar, plus a larger smoking lounge of approximately 80 square metres. A mini-boutique near the entrance sells frivolous clothing, jewellery, and adult toys. The overall feel is of a neighbourhood bar that happens to have playrooms tucked behind it, rather than a sex venue that happens to have a bar.

Golden Lions

Markgröningen, Baden-Württemberg

Golden Lions is a long-running lifestyle club in Markgröningen, a quiet Swabian town roughly 20 kilometres northwest of Stuttgart. The club has been operating since 1999 and underwent a comprehensive renovation in October 2023, relaunching — as the site puts it — as a modern venue for "Erotik mit Niveau und Stil" (eroticism with sophistication and style). A mixed crowd of couples and singles from the Stuttgart–Ludwigsburg conurbation makes the drive out, drawn by an atmosphere the club positions as an oasis for erotic moments away from daily life, with a clientele that reviewers consistently describe as friendly and the staff as welcoming. The space includes a bar, a dance floor, a buffet, multiple themed playrooms, three whirlpools (indoor and outdoor), a sauna, massage facilities, a garden area, and secured locker rooms, with ample parking front and rear — including space for campervans. Every entry ticket is all-inclusive: the door price covers full club access, the buffet, and all drinks at the bar. The event calendar runs the full week: Thursday mornings bring a "Fantastic Breakfast" brunch party (10:00–14:00); Wednesdays host BANG my Hotwife evenings (18:00–23:00); Fridays and Saturdays run standard couple-and-singles nights alongside dedicated couples-only evenings (20:00 to 02:00 or 03:00); and Sundays offer afternoon sessions (14:00–21:00). Themed events — White Night, Oktoberfest, foam parties, a Silvester Gala, CFNM nights, and explicit-format gangbang evenings — fill out the annual programme. Access is clearly tiered by guest type. Couples and solo women may arrive on the night without a reservation; solo men must pre-register on JOYclub and receive guest confirmation before being admitted, with JOYclub members also receiving a discount off the standard door price. Entry pricing is steeply differentiated by gender and event type, ranging from €5–40 for solo women to €45–130 for solo men, and €20–110 for couples. A complete ban on mobile phones and cameras is enforced throughout the premises, keeping the atmosphere relaxed and discreet. The dress code is erotic and frivolous for women — lingerie, latex, and minimal clothing are all encouraged — while men are expected in formal black-and-white attire or clubwear. Safe sex is described on the site as "selbstverständlich" (self-evident), and the no-means-no rule is taken seriously: any guest who ignores a refusal faces immediate expulsion.

Entre Nous DC

Closed

Washington, DC

Entre Nous has been Washington DC's premier members-only lifestyle event since 2000 — a roving off-premise social club for couples and single women. Rather than occupying a fixed address, events rotate through discreet DC nightclub venues, typically running 9 or 10PM to 3AM. The crowd leans young, with the average guest in the 30–35 range and single women making up roughly 20 percent of attendees on any given night. Events are nightclub in format: live DJs spinning 80s remixes, Euro-dance, R&B, and drum and bass anchor a proper dance floor, while a fully stocked bar and lounge fill the space. Themed parties and seasonal specials keep regulars returning; new guests are encouraged to arrive early to meet the hosts and get oriented. As a strictly off-premise event — no sex, no illegal nudity, full DC ABRA compliance — Entre Nous operates openly inside licensed nightclub venues. That structural choice defines the atmosphere: guests dress up, dance, drink, and connect. Single men are not admitted under any circumstances, no exceptions, ever.

Club SINZ

Salisbury, MA

Event Organizer

Perched on the second and third floors of Ten's Show Club on the North Shore of Massachusetts, Club SINZ has carved out a reputation as New England's premier couples lifestyle destination since its founding in 2004. The windowless, 4,000-plus square-foot ultra-lounge on Salisbury's North End Boulevard sits about an hour north of Boston, drawing a membership base that now numbers over 15,000 couples from across the region. The club's motto — La Passion Avant Tout, Passion Above All — is backed by multiple top-shelf bars, luxurious lounge seating, video screens, dance poles, a dance cage, and a pocket billiards table. Events run on a bi-weekly Saturday schedule, doors opening at 8:30 PM through 1:00 AM, with larger holiday parties drawing 300 to 500 guests. The club is strictly off-premise: no sexual activity is permitted on-site, keeping the atmosphere in meet-and-greet territory. Membership begins with a free Basic Membership application; Gold Members receive discounted cover charges and may bring a guest couple or single female for free. A members-only inner sanctum called SINZ Black — a custom-built invitation-only lounge with an eight-person circular bar and 300-year-old Chinese door decor — exists for the most loyal regulars. SINZ.NET, the club's private social network, allows prospective members to connect with thousands of New England couples before committing to their first visit.

Samantha's Place

Unverified

London, Ontario

On-Premise Club

Samantha's Place appears to have permanently closed, most likely in late 2016 or early 2017. The club's website has not been updated since November 2016, its last posted event was November 12, 2016, and a structured audit by swingersontario.com in April 2021 listed it among clubs presumed closed. Founded in 2000 by a London-area couple known to members as Samantha and Greg, it billed itself as Southwestern Ontario's longest-running lifestyle club and for most of its life the only such club west of the GTA. The founders sold to Skye and Todd, a younger London couple who had been regular attendees, with the handover taking place around 2016. Both ownerships maintained the same format and pricing structure through to the final events. Samantha's Place ran as a strictly off-premise club, meaning no sexual activity or genital nudity was permitted at events — a policy stated prominently on the site and central to its identity as a venue for meeting, dancing, and flirting rather than a play space. Monthly themed Saturday nights were held at a private licensed venue in east London, just east of the Highbury and Dundas intersection; the specific address was disclosed to registered guests by email only, never listed publicly. Doors opened at 9:30 pm with an early-bird discount window until 9:45 pm, and guests were asked to arrive by 11 pm. The crowd spanned the late twenties to early fifties, with a core demographic in the 30–45 range, and first-timers made up at least a quarter of any given evening. Themes were encouraged but not required — Halloween drew near-total compliance, other themes considerably less so — and the general dress expectation was smart-casual to sexy. Music was top-40 with a seasoning of eighties and nineties tracks. A licensed bar operated at upscale-bar prices, door prizes sponsored by adult retailers including the Stag Shop and Love Shop were drawn around 11:30 pm, and occasional sponsored demonstrations — rope work, wax play, lap dancing — added variety to certain events.

Liberty Elite

Lutterworth, Leicestershire

On-Premise Club

Set on two private acres of Midlands countryside alongside the A5 near Lutterworth, Liberty Elite has operated as an "upmarket private members club" since 1999, serving both the swinging and fetish communities. Over £1.5 million has been invested in the purpose-built venue, which holds a licence for more than 300 guests and staff and a car park for over a hundred vehicles — scale that is offset by an interior designed to feel "cosy and intimate at all times." The A5 position, close to Junction 20 of the M1 and Junction 1 of the M6, makes it a natural hub for members arriving from across the Midlands. The property trades under the name Liberty's Hotel, signalling that on-site accommodation is part of the offer: en-suite, air-conditioned double rooms with king-size beds are bookable by phone at £75 on Sundays and £90 Monday through Saturday. Events run primarily on Fridays and Saturdays, with a calendar that spans in-house party brands — Dark Desires, Embargo, Secret House, The Hot Wife Club — alongside visiting promoter nights, over-40s swing parties, seasonal BBQs, and dedicated dungeon sessions for the fetish community. Single gentlemen are welcome on Fridays only; couples and single ladies attend across the broader programme. On a first visit, guests complete a short membership application form and present a driving licence at reception — no ID, no entry. Annual couples membership is £45; memberships run from 1 July to 30 June and are non-transferable. Existing members may bring guests once on a guest basis before those guests must take out their own membership. Entry prices vary per event and are published individually on the online calendar. The interior spans multiple bars, lounge areas, a snug, a dance floor with professional DJs, and a buffet, alongside six lockable playrooms and a custom-built Dungeon for fetish play. Outside, a sun-lounger terrace, private lawns, and a covered heated smoking area sit within the fully enclosed grounds. A heated Jacuzzi, changing rooms, and secure lockers — available for a refundable £20 deposit, each stocked with a fresh bath sheet — complete the amenities. The bar tab runs off the locker key and is settled on departure; no outside alcohol is permitted under the venue's liquor licence. Mobile phones must be switched off and stored in lockers at reception, cameras are banned throughout, and plastic glasses replace glass in all play areas. The club's stated commitment is a "clean, secure, non-judgemental, no pressure environment" for all members.

Virginia Friends

Richmond, VA

Virginia Friends is a couples-and-single-ladies-only lifestyle club that has run monthly hotel-takeover socials in the Richmond area of central Virginia since 1993. Events rotate among Richmond-area hotels rather than sitting at one fixed address, with the specific property announced on each event page ahead of time; the club positions itself as roughly 2 to 3 hours from Washington DC, Maryland and North Carolina, drawing a regional rather than strictly local crowd. Each social opens with a newcomer's seminar in the hotel lounge that is mandatory for every first-time attendee, even experienced lifestyle couples, before the main dance gets underway. Dances typically draw 65 or more couples ranging from their mid-twenties to mid-sixties, with most between 30 and 50. Once the dance winds down, the party shifts to a reserved club floor open only to members and patrolled by headset-wearing security, where a hospitality suite, an adjoining group-play room known for its Sybian, and private member rooms take over; a separate "party floor" (commonly the hotel's fourth floor) hosts member-booked theme rooms for couples who purchase that ticket tier in advance. Entry requires an online membership and event ticket, typically released about four weeks before each social with a same-night cutoff around 9pm, plus a valid driver's license and each partner's real name on file — the club states it cannot admit anyone unwilling to register under their legal name, citing its private-club status. Wristbands and name tags issued at check-in must be worn to access the club floor. Dress runs from casual streetwear at early registration to costume or theme wear at the dance and lingerie-or-less upstairs, with "street legal" coverage required in hotel hallways and elevators. Drinks bought in the lounge must stay in the lounge under Virginia ABC rules, while the club floor itself is BYOB with mixers and snacks supplied by the club; hotel guest rooms, including a limited discounted block, are booked separately and directly with the property.

Curious Club

Barwell, Leicestershire

On-Premise Club

Curious Club is a private members' lifestyle venue occupying a discreet address at 3 Chapel Street in Barwell, Leicestershire — a small market town on the edge of the National Forest, roughly equidistant between Leicester and Coventry. Originally established in Nuneaton, the club relocated to its current Barwell premises in February 2026. It operates as a fully inclusive social space for adults interested in swinging, kink, BDSM, fetish, and alternative lifestyles, drawing members who identify across the full spectrum of gender and orientation: straight, bi, gay, lesbian, trans, CD/TV, poly, exhibitionists, voyeurs, and kinksters. Membership is required for entry, and all attendees must be 21 or over. The venue runs a fully licensed bar — no BYOB — with drinks served in standard measures up to doubles. Facilities include a hot tub, dedicated play spaces, intimate rooms, a fetish den, showers, and secure lockers. On arrival, members deposit a locker key that serves as a running tab for bar purchases, settled on departure; card payments are accepted for transactions over £5. First-time visitors are offered a guided tour by the team. The atmosphere is explicitly zero-judgement: participation in any activity is always optional, and members are equally welcome to socialise, observe, or simply relax. Special events and themed evenings — including nights such as Greedy Girls, which may carry adjusted entry ratios — are listed on the club calendar. The club opens Friday and Saturday evenings, 7:30pm to 2am. Door charges (separate from membership fees) are: couples £20, single ladies £15, single gents £35, CD/TV £20. Annual membership costs couples £20, single ladies £10, single gents £40, and CD/TV £20. Entry is subject to capacity, ratio management, and management discretion — it is never guaranteed. Persons appearing intoxicated or under the influence of drugs will be refused entry regardless of membership status.

Play Champagne (The Champagne Club)

Columbus, OH

Event Organizer

Play Champagne is one of the Midwest’s largest lifestyle event organizers, operating as a traveling party producer rather than a fixed-address club. Founded and still run by owners Melissa and Eric, the operation specializes in complete hotel takeovers — booking every guestroom, the convention space, restaurant, and bar — at full-service Hilton-brand hotels across Ohio, Michigan, Indiana, and Illinois, with regular Las Vegas editions and annual trips to Hedonism II in Jamaica. Flagship venues have included the Embassy Suites in Blue Ash (Cincinnati), Livonia MI, Indianapolis, Glenview IL, and Las Vegas. Typical weekends draw 1,200–1,600 attendees and span two nights, with a Friday check-in at 3 pm and checkout Monday morning. The programming is unusually dense for a hotel event: a five-story atrium main stage with award-winning lifestyle DJs, professional sound, lighting, and laser rigs; a 24-hour indoor pool (topless optional); a vendor showcase; meet-and-greet karaoke; drag shows; live bands; and a 360-degree video photo booth. Educational content includes couples sensory, Kama Sutra, and NURU massage classes, plus BDSM demonstrations, all with separate sign-up slots. Play areas include group and semi-private themed playrooms (typically in dedicated ballrooms), a Porn Play Escape group room, and an expanded Impact room for impact play opening nightly from around 11 pm. The famous top-floor afterparty runs from 1 am to dawn. Complimentary drinks are served nightly during a comp-bar window, and a full hot breakfast buffet with omelet station is included each morning. The crowd skews inclusive and body-positive, spanning roughly ages 28–55, and Play Champagne explicitly welcomes all body types and demographics. The vibe is upscale nightclub rather than underground party: VIP table service with reserved front-and-center seating is available, and off-duty police officers are stationed throughout the hotel. Dress code is dress-to-impress rather than enforced, though themed costume participation is strongly encouraged. The whole-hotel BYOB policy means guests bring their own alcohol to guest rooms and carry it in a covered tumbler into event spaces; a hotel cash bar is also on site.

Loft54

Unverified

Rheinstetten, Baden-Württemberg

Set in an industrial building on the southern outskirts of Rheinstetten, Loft54 opened in February 2023 as an Erolifestyle Club built around two pillars: upscale gastronomy and a well-equipped private play environment. Operated by Loft54 Gastronomie Betriebs GmbH under managing director Andreas Vater, the club describes itself as a space for couples and women of all ages, with openness and tolerance as its founding ethos. The venue divides into a social front-of-house and a purpose-built play wing. Private rooms include two areas reserved exclusively for couples, a dedicated SM suite, and an extravagant darkroom fitted with two glory holes and two Czech walls. Outdoors, a shared sauna and whirlpool extend the offering. Floor heating, full air conditioning, and a ventilation system run in every room; twelve showers and more than two hundred lockers handle throughput. Consent is a stated house rule.

Planet Swing sits in the small town of Tribsees in Mecklenburg-Vorpommern, positioned almost directly off the A20 coastal motorway that connects the Baltic Sea resorts — making it a natural stop for couples and singles holidaying on the coast or the islands. The club occupies around 700 square metres across nine distinct spaces and can hold up to 180 guests, which by north-east German standards puts it firmly among the largest swinger venues in the region. The house philosophy is summed up by its motto 'Alles kann, nichts muss' — everything is possible, nothing is mandatory — and the club bills itself as a private venue for singles and tolerant couples of all ages. The interior takes its cues from a tour of escapist themes: guests move between rooms styled as 1001 Nights, a jungle space, a romance room, a mirrored lounge and a starlit chamber. Alongside the themed areas there is a changing room with lockable lockers, a bar and buffet with dining seating, a fireplace lounge and a dance floor. The wellness wing runs to a sauna, steam bath, whirlpool and massage bench. An SM studio with specialist equipment rounds out the offer, alongside several open play areas, the largest of which accommodates up to 40 people at once. Friday and Saturday evenings are the core party nights, running from 20:00 to 03:00, with prices occasionally adjusted for special events. Standard entry is €20 for single women, €60 for couples and €80 for single men. Dress code is explicitly sexy-erotic — lingerie is specifically encouraged. The rural setting near the A20 draws a mix of regulars from across Mecklenburg-Vorpommern and Baltic coast tourists looking to extend a holiday night.

Ragazza Club

Rehlingen-Siersburg, Saarland

On-Premise Club

Ragazza Club occupies a 650-square-metre industrial unit on the quiet Dürrfeldslach estate on the edge of Rehlingen-Siersburg — reached from junction 7 of the A8, past the Aral station and the Aldi, then right into the street where the club takes the second-to-last building on the left. The interior spans two floors and ten play areas: a full-service bar and hot-and-cold buffet room sets a sociable, unhurried tone at ground level, with a cuddle corner, a dedicated couples' zone, a whirlpool, a sauna, a lockable private play room, a BDSM area, a darkroom, and three love swings fanning out across the two floors. Ample parking — including bays sized for campervans and motorhomes — reflects the fact that the Ragazza draws visitors from across the Saarland and has been described by Saarbrücker Zeitung as one of the largest swinger meeting points in the region. Owner Carina Kemmerling runs the club under a self-described 's3xpositive' philosophy: sex is treated as something natural and consensual, professional sex workers are explicitly prohibited, and the house tone leans firmly toward community rather than commerce. All entry is all-inclusive — drinks, the buffet, sauna and whirlpool access, hygiene supplies, condoms, and unlimited towels are folded into the admission price, and lockable lockers take care of valuables. First-time visitors are walked through a guided tour and orientation before the evening gets going; the team draws consistent praise in reviews for a family-like welcome, and the club offers private rental of the full venue for groups wanting the space to themselves. The club opens every day of the week. Monday-to-Thursday afternoon sessions (14:00–21:00) keep things quieter and are available for private hire, while the main weekend nights run Friday 16:00–02:00 and Saturday 16:00–03:00; Sunday follows the weekday pattern (14:00–21:00). Admission starts from €15 for women, €60 for men and couples, with LGBTQIA+ guests priced by their identified gender and same-sex couples at the couple rate. Pre-registration is recommended, though same-day entry is possible subject to capacity. The dress code runs smart-casual for men and erotic-leaning for women — lingerie, dresses, or heels; street shoes are not permitted inside the venue.

Refugium Swingerclub

Neumünster, Schleswig-Holstein

On-Premise Club

Refugium Swing & Dance sits on Krokamp 64 in the commercial outskirts of Neumünster, Schleswig-Holstein — an unglamorous address that gives nothing away about the modern lounge-bar world behind the door. Owner Marco Marien designed the club as a deliberate departure from red-velvet clichés: the palette runs to deep green and anthracite, the lighting is considered, and the 500-capacity interior divides into distinct zones that read more like a design-conscious nightclub than a backroom. At its centre is a dance floor anchored by an actual ceiling swing and a DJ booth; off to one side, a well-stocked bar and a separate English-style smoking room keep the social energy moving; scattered throughout are sofa lounge areas where guests talk, watch, and warm up at their own pace. The play rooms — two discreetly positioned and thematically designed spaces — sit well removed from the social areas, alongside a Séparée that doubles as an erotic cinema. Hygiene is taken visibly seriously: towels, disinfectant, condoms, mouthwash, and disposable toothbrushes are stationed throughout, and the venue's barrier-free showers and toilets make it fully accessible to wheelchair users. In warmer months, a 1,000-square-metre outdoor terrace opens up, adding a pool, whirlpool, TikiBar, BBQ station, and a second play area to the mix. The club runs regular themed evenings, seasonal parties, and — every four to six weeks — a free newcomer orientation session at 18:00, before normal doors, with no registration required. Admission is structured around an all-in price covering entry, buffet, premium beverages, and the wardrobe service: €50 in advance, €60 on the door; women enter at €25 and couples at €50. Solo male pricing is set separately and higher as a deliberate tool to keep the gender ratio balanced. Dress code is enforced at the entrance — men in dark long trousers (blue jeans excluded), a plain solid-colour shirt, and proper shoes; women in stylish rather than everyday attire. Once inside, phones and cameras are banned in public areas, and explicit consent is required for all contact; staff are trained to recognise genuine distress. Drugs, solicitation, and any harassment carry an immediate house ban.

Schlangenkeller

Bendestorf, Lower Saxony

Schlangenkeller has anchored northern Germany's lifestyle scene since 1998, operating as a discreet venue in Bendestorf — a small village roughly 30 kilometres south of Hamburg. Under the ownership of M.G. Schulz — known to guests as Gina — the venue has cultivated a reputation as one of the Hamburg region's most established lifestyle clubs, now in its 28th year. Parties run on a fixed weekly rhythm — Wednesday and Thursday evenings from 20:30 to 01:00, Friday and Saturday from 20:30 to 02:00. Attendance is managed via prior registration through the website's booking form. Hotel Meinsbur sits approximately 100 metres from the club's entrance and extends a 10% room-rate discount to Schlangenkeller visitors using the keyword 'Paris'.

Secrets at Flamingos

Unverified

Mansfield, Nottinghamshire

On-Premise Club

Secrets at Flamingos is a boutique lifestyle club occupying a purpose-fitted licensed venue on Broxtowe Drive in Mansfield, Nottinghamshire. Founded and run by a team with years of personal experience in the lifestyle scene — and a track record of visiting clubs across the country before opening their own — the club sets out to be something more considered than the average venue. Their premises licence covers a broad range of events, from swing parties with a fully open play area to social-only gatherings, with all adult events running on a ticket-only basis as required by the licence. The venue is centred on a fully licensed bar stocked with draught beers, wines, soft drinks, teas, coffees and the house-signature Flamingos Cocktails. Alongside the bar is a large, open playroom fitted with beds of varying sizes and dedicated private spaces for more discreet encounters. Practical amenities are covered as standard: separate male and female bathrooms, a changing room with lockable lockers, and towels provided to every guest. The events programme includes regular couples-and-single-ladies nights and party nights with the play area open; naturist events have also been hosted under the same roof. First-timers are met at the door by one of the club's hosts, who will walk them through the space and make introductions — an explicit part of the welcome process. Management is firm about maintaining an inclusive environment: cliquish behaviour is not tolerated, and the stated goal is a community built on respect and freedom from prejudice. Private hire is available seven days a week and can be configured with or without the play area, making the venue available for adult birthday parties and lifestyle events alike.

Swingerclub Bluecat

Unverified

Schwetzingen, Baden-Württemberg

On-Premise Club

Tucked at the edge of Schwetzingen Am Langen Sand light-industrial strip — a short drive from the A6 motorway Schwetzingen-Nord exit — Blue Cat draws a mixed, open-minded crowd from across the Rhine-Neckar corridor: Mannheim, Heidelberg, Karlsruhe and the Palatinate. Run by Andrea Dunkel as a deliberately family-scale operation, the club pitches itself explicitly against the anonymous superclubs of the region: 500 square metres, nine individually styled rooms and a house capacity of around a hundred guests. New visitors are invited to arrive early and tour the rooms and party space at their own pace before the evening gets going, giving first-timers an unhurried feel for the layout before they commit to staying. The club opens Tuesday through Saturday from 8 pm, with nights running until 1 am on weekday evenings, 2 am on Fridays and 3 am on Saturdays. Admission is all-inclusive — every price covers the buffet and drinks for the night, with no bar tab to run up afterwards. Women pay €10 on any night; couples follow a sliding scale of €30 on weeknight openings, €45 on Fridays and €50 on Saturdays; solo men pay €100 across the board. Registered JOYclub premium members receive an average €10 discount off the door price. The nine rooms range across a love swing, a cinema lounge, a massage area, a gynecological chair, a kuschelecke (cuddle corner) and a dedicated SM play area, supported by a sauna, a wet area and a terrace for outdoor moments. The central zone holds a bar and a rotating buffet. Parking is available directly around the building.

Swingerclub Feuer & Eis

Bruchsal, Baden-Württemberg

On-Premise Club

Feuer & Eis — Fire and Ice — occupies a discreet industrial-zone address on Industriestraße in Bruchsal, roughly midway between Karlsruhe and Heidelberg, and draws couples and singles from across Baden-Württemberg and beyond. The club operators describe it as "Spielwiesen" — playgrounds — for the wider Bruchsal and Karlsruhe region. Run by Sven Schirner, the venue spans 800 square metres across two fully air-conditioned floors and holds up to 250 guests. On JoyClub it carries a 4.8 out of 5 star rating from more than 3,100 reviews and counts over 10,000 followers — unusually strong social proof for a regional club. The ground floor centres on the signature Frivole Bar — a naughty bar lounge with a cage fixture at the counter — flanked by a dance floor and a large multi-person whirlpool. Up on the first floor, the play area fans out into a darkroom, a dedicated BDSM zone, a cinema room, lockable private rooms for couples, a couples-only area, and a glory-hole corner. Rounding out the offering is a sauna, an outdoor terrace with a pool, and full kitchen service: hot and cold meals are prepared fresh daily and included in the admission price, as are towels and condoms. DJ Rex handles in-house music on party nights, and shuttle service from the club and a partner hotel arrangement cater to guests travelling from further afield. The club weekly programme is dense and deliberately varied. Core party nights run Friday (20:00–02:00) and Saturday (20:00–04:00), but the club is open most evenings from Monday through Sunday. Entry prices scale by night and demographic: women pay €5–20, couples €18–75, and single men €28–115. Men typically require advance registration, while couples and women are admitted freely. Regular themed slots include Tropical Beach Parties, Wellness Sundays with massage, trans-friendly Sommernachtstraum evenings, Young People nights, Couples and Ladies glow-bracelet nights, and fortnightly Herrenüberschuss evenings that open extra capacity for solo male guests.

Cupids Swingers Club

Swinton, Greater Manchester

On-Premise Club

Cupids Swingers Club sits on Sutherland Street in Swinton, a short drive northwest of Manchester city centre, and has been operating for over 30 years under the registered entity Cupids Health Club Limited. With a self-reported membership base of more than 25,000, it is among the longest-running lifestyle venues in the north of England. The club is members-only in structure — everyone must be 21 or older with valid photo ID and registered on the club's system — though non-member guests may attend at higher entry fees. On arrival, each guest is issued a locker and a towel; the locker key doubles as a bar tab, allowing drinks to be charged throughout the evening and settled on departure. The fully licensed UV bar sells a range of spirits, wines, beers, cocktails, and soft drinks. Changing rooms come equipped with showers, shower gel, shampoo, and a hairdryer. A small heated courtyard at the rear serves as a smoking area, with dressing gowns provided for warmth. A pool table sits in the lounge area, and reviewers reference a cage-play area alongside it. Phones and cameras are strictly prohibited and must remain locked in lockers at all times. Events run on a packed weekly schedule: Tuesday daytime sessions (M.O.T.D.) run 11:00-18:00; Wednesday evenings (18:00-01:00) are couples and single females only, a format running continuously for over 30 years; Thursday through Saturday offer mixed evening events until 01:00 or 03:00; Sunday evenings run from 18:00. The calendar includes recurring Bi Nights, Newbie Nights, and themed weekends. Couples pay £20-35; single males £20-50 depending on membership and event; single females enter free. Single male entry is not guaranteed even with a guestlist reservation — the club actively manages gender ratios. Advance booking is strongly recommended for weekend evenings.

Bournemouth Swingers Club

Bournemouth, Dorset

Club

Bournemouth Swingers Club operates at 140 Commercial Road in Bournemouth, Dorset, positioning itself as the hub of the town's swinging community. The club is fully licensed, requires no membership, and runs a weekly Wednesday social alongside a structured Saturday night programme under three recurring event brands: XQUISITE, XCHANGE, and XPLORE. A sister venue, Pride Bar, sits directly opposite and serves as an unofficial pre-drinks spot from 6pm on Saturdays. The venue features a bar and social lounge, a dance floor, a sauna, a jacuzzi, a spa area, and multiple playrooms stocked with condoms, lube, blue roll, and antibacterial spray. Towels are available on request. Showers, a changing room with hair dryer, and a locker system tied to the bar tab round out the facilities. Wednesdays (8pm–midnight) are open to all: £10 per couple, free for single women and trans guests, £20 for single men. The first Saturday is XQUISITE (couples and single ladies only). The second Saturday is XCHANGE (couples plus a limited quota of single men who must book online). The fourth Saturday is XPLORE (open to all genders and orientations with no ratio cap). Saturday nights run 8pm–2am with last entry at 10pm; door prices are £40 per couple, £35 single male, £10 single female or trans. Online tickets are cheaper. The first Friday hosts Spectrum, a monthly trans and admirers night.

Swingerclub Passion

Stuhr, Lower Saxony

On-Premise Club

Club Passion sits in the Seckenhausen industrial estate on the southern fringe of Bremen, a short drive from the A1 autobahn at Industriestrasse 37. The club is owned and personally run by Jessica and Patrick Bosse, a couple with their own long-standing roots in the swinging community, and it shows in how the place operates: long-serving staff who are friends first and staff second set a tone the venue itself describes as a very special family-like atmosphere, one where even first-timers quickly find their footing rather than feeling lost in an anonymous crowd. More than 1.5 million visits, a JOYclub Recommendation badge, and a 4.8-star average across 3,288 reviews place it firmly among the most trusted venues in the Bremen catchment. The indoor footprint runs to roughly 270 square metres, maintained at a steady 22 degrees C year-round. The ground floor holds a well-stocked bar (Bacardi, Jim Beam, Malibu, Likor 43 among the brands), a comprehensive warm-and-cold buffet, and a dance floor with a pole and stage area. Playrooms cover the full range: a Caribbean-themed Blue Lagoon private room, a castle-themed Burgzimmer, a coded couples-only section, a sleeping area upstairs, and a dedicated BDSM corner fitted with a swing, spanking bench, and St. Andrew's cross. The wellness zone adds an eight-person whirlpool (water changed daily), a sauna, and shower stations stocked with toiletries throughout the venue. Come summer, a heated outdoor terrace opens with a pool, beach baskets, and a separate cocktail bar, an addition that sets the club apart from most urban indoor venues. Club Passion runs Fridays (19:00-02:00) and Saturdays (19:00-03:00) as its regular nights, with Tuesday afternoon sessions (15:00-23:00) and Sunday parties (14:00-21:00) rotating on alternating weeks. Door prices are all-inclusive - the fee covers the full buffet, alcoholic and soft drinks, condoms, and hygiene supplies, with nothing extra to spend inside. Friday admission runs EUR 20 for single women, EUR 60 for couples, and EUR 80 for single men; Saturday steps up to EUR 30, EUR 85, and EUR 90 respectively, with JOYclub members receiving a discount at every tier. Trans and cross-dressing guests are admitted at 50% of the solo male rate. Dress code is firmly enforced: sexy lingerie and heels for women, latex, leather, or dark underwear with quality sandals for men. First-time visitors can call ahead to arrange a complimentary 30-minute walk-through before doors open - no commitment required.

Joyride

Unverified

London, London

Event Organizer

Joyride is a London-based queer, sex-positive event series operating at the intersection of rave culture, art, and sexual expression. Founded in early 2023 by Irish sex educator MJ Fox and experiential event producer Lydia Fikan, the party draws together DJs, performers, sexuality practitioners, and artists around a shared ethos of joy, playfulness, and consent. Pitched at adults aged 21 and over, Joyride sold out its earliest events through word of mouth alone before securing a bi-weekly Sunday residency at Corsica Studios in Elephant and Castle — one of London's most established underground club spaces. The format centred on two spaces at Corsica Studios: a main dancefloor delivering a genre-fluid programme spanning house, techno, and everything in between, with a focus on queer and femme artists; and two purpose-built playrooms fitted with bespoke kink furniture and sex machines, one of them designed by interior designer Domhnall Nolan. A welfare team, identifiable by yellow bandanas and flashing armbands, circulated throughout every event. Phones and cameras were barred from the dancefloor and playrooms, with stickers placed over camera lenses on entry. Tickets were sold exclusively through Dice and only available in advance, with community and unwaged tickets available on request. Joyride's Corsica Studios residency came to an end in February 2026 when the venue announced its permanent closure; the final party, on 15 February 2026, marked the event's third birthday. As of mid-2026, no successor venue has been confirmed. The dress code required fetish or kink attire — latex, leather, PVC, mesh, lingerie, harnesses — and streetwear was refused entry. The entry age was strictly 21 and over. Prospective attendees should check joyriderave.com and the Dice promoter page for current event information.

The No3 Club

Chorley, Lancashire

On-Premise Club

The No3 Club occupies a discreet address at 3 Friday Street in the heart of Chorley, Lancashire, a short walk from the town's mainline railway station and five minutes from junction 8 of the M61. Billing itself as a 'luxurious swingers club' that welcomes both newcomers and experienced members alike, it has built a following across the North West with a weekly programme that spans lunchtime socials through to late-night swing nights, making it one of the more consistently active venues in the region. The fully licensed, over-21s venue sits alongside a large free car park, with hotel options from Premier Inn to Hartwood Hall available nearby for those travelling from further afield. The schedule is the club's most distinctive feature. Wednesdays alternate between Greedy Girl Days on the 1st and 3rd of the month — a noon-to-10pm session free for member couples and single ladies, with single men admitted at £30 — and a Midweek Madness Social on off-Wednesdays (7:30pm to midnight). Thursdays bring a dedicated Bi Night (7:30pm–midnight), while Fridays begin with a free daytime Coffee & Munch (1–5pm) the club describes as the 'safest and easiest way to meet like-minded people', before evening themed nights from 8pm to 2am: Motown on the first Friday, a Traffic Light Party on the second (red wristbands for single ladies, amber for couples, green for bi guests), and the Black Man's Fan Club on the fourth. Saturdays run a straight swing night from 9pm to 2:30am, and Sundays close the week with a Super Sexy Sunday from 4pm to 10pm, buffet included. Entry is generally £20 for couples, £10–£20 for single ladies, and £30–£40 for single men, who must pre-book given limited availability. Inside, a fully licensed bar runs alongside private and open rooms, with buffet service laid on for select nights. The daytime Coffee & Munch on Fridays provides a deliberate low-stakes entry point — come as you are, meet the regulars, and decide from there. Dress code across evening events is smart casual; trainers and sportswear are not admitted. Photo ID is required for first-time visitors, and consent sits at the centre of the club's stated ethos with a clear 'No always means No' policy. The venue is also available for private hire upon request.

Torture Garden

London, Greater London

Club Night / Event Brand

Torture Garden — known universally as TG — is Europe's largest fetish club night, founded in London in October 1990 by promoter and DJ Allen Pelling and art-and-film graduate David Wood. What began in a Shepherd's Bush pub has grown into what is widely described as the world's biggest fetish event network, with Time Out London calling it "legendary" and "a capital institution." The night has attracted figures ranging from Jean Paul Gaultier and Boy George to Dita Von Teese (who made her UK debut at TG) and Marilyn Manson, and it runs a fetish fashion label alongside the club events. TG's London home base is Scala, a converted former theatre on Pentonville Road in King's Cross. The venue spans several floors connected by multiple staircases — there is no lift — and is configured around a main Club Arena, an Eclectic Ballroom playing a rotating mix of burlesque, goth, electro swing, and post-punk sounds, and a dungeon playroom equipped by Benchmarxxx. Larger events also incorporate boudoir-style play rooms. The crowd is a genuinely mixed cross-section: show-offs, goths, industrial punks, burlesque performers, drag artists, and first-timers, drawn together by what journalists have consistently described as a "welcoming, liberating" atmosphere. Events are ticketed in advance only, with tiered entry-time slots (Early: 9pm–10:15pm; Peak: 10:15pm–2:30am; Late: 12am–2:30am) and last entry typically at 2:30am; doors open at 9pm and events run until 6am. Tickets typically range from approximately £33–£37, with a limited allocation of discounted tickets at £25 per event for those on lower incomes. ID is mandatory for all attendees regardless of age: physical, original photo ID only — passport, driving licence, national ID card, or a Validate/citizen card — no digital copies or phone screenshots accepted. The dress code is strict and non-negotiable: Fantasy Fetish, SM, Body Art, Drag, Rubber, Leather, and PVC are all welcome; street clothes, cotton t-shirts, and regular clubwear will result in refusal with no refund.

Vault 139

London, London

Cruise Bar

Vault 139 is a gay cruise bar occupying a basement space at 139–143 Whitfield Street in Fitzrovia, central London W1T 5EN, a short walk from Warren Street and Goodge Street tube stations. Billing itself as London's sexiest cruise bar, it operates seven days a week from 1pm to 1am and caters exclusively to men aged 18 and over, drawing a loyal clientele in what the venue describes as a no-frills, welcoming underground environment. The venue sits 20 steps below street level, giving it a genuinely subterranean character. Inside, facilities include a large dark room equipped with a sling, beds, and two barrels; several smaller private rooms each fitted with a bed; four gloryholes; a second smaller dark room; and a free changing room and cloakroom. Large bags and suitcases can be stored for £2. A fully licensed bar serves a range of alcoholic and non-alcoholic drinks until 12:30am Monday to Saturday and midnight on Sundays; chilled tap water is free throughout. Free Wi-Fi is available, with login details at the bar. Mobile phones are restricted to the bar area, and photography is banned outright in all cruising spaces. Sessions run in two daily blocks — an afternoon cruise (1pm–7pm) and an evening session (7pm–1am) — with the evening theme rotating across the week: NKD (strictly naked, footwear permitted, harnesses allowed) on Mondays and Thursdays; standard Cruise (fully clothed) on Tuesdays and Fridays; Underwear (boxers, speedos, jockstraps, G-strings, harnesses — no shirts or trousers) on Wednesdays and Sundays; and All or Nothing (any dress code) on Saturday evenings and Sunday nights. General admission is £14 for non-members and £13 for members; admission includes a free first drink, free coat check, and free same-day re-entry. Discounted £5 entry is available to students and Blue Light or CAC card holders on Tuesdays, and to under-25s on Wednesdays and Sundays. Membership is free via the venue's app (iOS and Android), which provides a digital loyalty card offering one complimentary entry for every five paid visits.

Vault72

Plymouth, Devon

Off-Premise Club

Vault72 occupies 72 Mutley Plain in Plymouth's Mutley neighbourhood, operating as the city's self-described premier alternative and LGBTQ+-friendly bar. The licensed venue accommodates up to 49 guests and pairs a fully stocked bar with a kink dungeon, giving it a dual identity that sets it apart from both a straight-social bar and a dedicated play venue. The crowd is Plymouth's alternative community — swingers, kink enthusiasts, LGBTQ+ regulars, and curious newcomers — who treat the space as a regular social base rather than an occasional destination. The doors are open Tuesday to Saturday from 7pm, with Thursday through Saturday running until 3am. Events rotate across the week: the Friday Swingers Social is a recurring fixture, and the calendar extends to leather socials, fetish nights, bi and gay evenings, pub nights with drink specials, and LGBTQ+-centred party series such as Pridemonium. Private hire is available on any day subject to prior arrangement, with packages starting from £5 per person and options for catering, decorations, and a Bluetooth surround-sound system. Because Vault72 holds a full on-licence, alcohol is served at the bar — no BYOB arrangement applies. The kink dungeon is the play-space anchor, while the bar and social areas keep things relaxed in the early part of the evening, allowing new arrivals to meet the regulars before things move further into the night. The team frames the venue explicitly as a safe, comfortable environment built around community, and the private-hire programme keeps the space active with one-off themed events throughout the week.

The event calendar keeps things fresh with couples-only Saturdays, Orgasm Nights, Bi-Parties, Darkroom Parties, and BDSM nights in the adjacent Menagerie venue. The signature "Chocolate Sunday" — featuring edible liquid chocolate in the steam bath — is an experience you won't find anywhere else. Staff speaks English and the club warmly welcomes international guests alongside its loyal local crowd. The house philosophy says it all: everything is allowed, nothing is mandatory. LGBTQ+ friendly. Couples and newbie friendly.
