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. Most events are booked through JoyClub, where the venue carries verified status.

Asthoria Swingdreams

Neumünster, Schleswig-Holstein

On-Premise Club

Asthoria Swingdreams occupies the corner of Fehmarnstraße and Wrangelstraße in the Wittorf district of Neumünster, roughly midway between Hamburg and Kiel in Schleswig-Holstein. The club is legally structured as a registered association — Verein zur Förderung kommunikativer Freizeitgestaltung e.V. — rather than a commercial venue, and its stated motto, „familiär, unkompliziert, niveauvoll“ (intimate, uncomplicated, refined), reflects that orientation: the emphasis is on a sociable, close-knit atmosphere within a deliberately modest capacity of around 50 guests across approximately 300 square metres. The floor plan divides the space into clearly distinct zones: a bar with a dance floor and pole-dancing apparatus, lounge seating, a buffet area, shower facilities, a wellness area with sauna and massage space, a darkroom, a jungle-themed play room, and a purpose-fitted SM/BDSM studio equipped with a St. Andrew’s Cross. The event calendar has featured recurring themed nights including the Rubensparty, a body-positive evening, and the Dark Night. The club opens on Tuesdays and Wednesdays from 15:00 to 23:00, on Fridays and Saturdays from 19:00 to 03:00, and on the second and fourth Sunday of each month from 15:00 to 22:00.

A dress code is enforced at entry.

The club has two floors with “Two Vibes”: a main bar and main room downstairs, dancing, lounge areas, play room areas, a shower at the top of the first landing and a heated smoking and vaping deck outside. Play is allowed everywhere except reception and the smoking deck, and the club says it has a no-pressure policy. Couples are admitted on Fridays and Saturdays, single women on both nights, and single men on Fridays and selected events only, never on Saturdays. Guests must be 18 or older and join in person on the night with ID showing a current home address; there are no online or phone sign-ups. Guests may bring their own alcohol, handed to bar staff, but not soft drinks or mixers. Dress is very smart, as for a nice nightclub or wine bar, and entry can be refused if it is not met. Phones and cameras are not allowed in the main club, play rooms, smoking deck or toilets, and illegal drugs lead to a ban.

Berlin, Berlin

On-Premise Club

Avarus is widely regarded as one of the most beautiful swingers clubs in Berlin, hidden away on the 5th floor of an apartment building in the Wedding district.

Every visit is all-inclusive: entry covers all drinks and a hot & cold buffet, so there's nothing to think about but enjoying the evening. 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.

Big Mamas Haus

Crimmitschau, Saxony

BDSM & Fetish Event Venue

Big Mamas Haus — trading publicly as BMH Event Club — occupies a purpose-built property at Harthauer Weg 6 on the fringe of Crimmitschau, a small industrial town in the Westsachsen district of Saxony. The club has been in operation for roughly two decades, celebrating its 20th anniversary in September 2026, and in that time has built a regional reputation as one of Saxony's more established adult event venues, drawing guests from across Germany and neighbouring European countries. The house tagline, 'Der feine Unterschied' — the fine difference — signals a self-conscious positioning above the generic party venue, with a programme that spans BDSM, fetish, swinging, and mixed erotic events rather than a single discipline. The property combines a generous outdoor area of approximately 6,000 square metres with dedicated indoor facilities that include a cinema room, sauna, lounge areas, an SM and fetish play zone covering more than 300 square metres, and overnight accommodation for guests who wish to stay. Hygiene infrastructure is thorough: condoms are stocked throughout the venue, and designated disposal points for used items are provided across the play areas. The club is affiliated with JOYclub, the German adult community platform, and maintains active listings on specialist fetish event directories. Admission for most events includes the bulk of drinks — hard spirits and cocktails are excluded — alongside a buffet that ranges from finger food to a full hot-and-cold spread depending on the occasion. Parking is plentiful and suited to larger vehicles. The club operates no fixed weekly schedule, opening exclusively for ticketed events published in its online calendar. Evening start times typically fall between 18:00 and 20:00, and the programme includes occasional afternoon sessions. Recurring formats encompass open play parties, female-dominance evenings, medical-fetish themed nights, intensive BDSM events billed as Hardliner nights, and smaller exclusive gatherings with capped attendance. All admission is event-specific and priced per occasion; the venue accepts cash only and does not process card payments. Entry is restricted to guests aged 18 and over.

The club's rope education page describes a shibari program it calls “inclusive. Creative. Comprehensive.” The calendar includes Tinker Tuesday, a practice night where no specific skills are taught, classes such as Zero to Suspension, and Your First Rope Class paired with a Rope Singles Mixer and Social Jam. Other events include Parenting and Sexual Wellness and a bi-monthly social for people who practice or are curious about modern witchcraft and paganism, which lists a signature cocktail bar upstairs and a reflection space downstairs. All events are 19+ for entry, and tickets are bought per event through the site's event pages. The first rope class needs no prior knowledge or partner, and loaner rope is available. The witchcraft social, for instance, says respectful conduct is “expected and mandatory” and that it is not a kink event.

The club's venues have unisex showers with toiletries and towels provided, and there is parking outside. It says bus stops and a 24-hour tube line are nearby, and that events are limited to around 80 guests and usually sell out. Entry is by ticket reservation, with booking opening about a month before each event, and admission is paid at the door by cash or card. Events are open to singles, couples and poly-groups of any configuration and any sexuality or gender identity, with discounted tickets for students, couples, poly-groups and people on low incomes. Free beer, wine and soft drinks are included and guests may also bring their own. There is no fixed dress code, but guests are expected to arrive with a look appropriate to the event, and the crew will ask them to meet this. Phones are checked into the cloakroom, photography and recording are banned, as are smart glasses, and illegal drugs lead to expulsion and a ban. The club calls its events “female empowered safe-spaces” and says they have SIA licensed door supervisors.

The Instagram account (@blackdiamonds6219) maintains over 24,000 followers, while the Facebook page has accumulated more than 4,100 likes from the Alexandria and wider DC metro community. All booking and event discovery is handled through the Linktree hub (linktr.ee/BlackDiamondsSwingerClub) and associated social channels, with no walk-in or permanent physical storefront publicly listed.
