Recurring nights include a monthly ladies' night and Saturday theme nights. Smoking and vaping are limited to the outdoor patio, and parking is free.

Guests must be 21 or older with valid ID. Street-legal clothing is required to and from the building, with fetish and optional clothing allowed after 9 PM.

Claudia's Dreamlight

Nürnberg, Bavaria

Swinger Club

Claudia’s Dreamlight is a long-established swinger club in the Ziegelstein district of northern Nürnberg, Bavaria, operated by Claudia through her company Dreamlight GmbH. Claudia, who first opened a lifestyle venue in Amberg roughly three decades ago, has run the Nürnberg location for approximately twenty years, making it one of the city’s most enduring lifestyle venues. The club operates on an all-inclusive erotic party model — open to couples, single women, and single men — underpinned by a consent-first house philosophy: a no is a no, and courtesy between guests is enforced. The venue spans approximately 1,000 square metres across two floors. The ground level holds a fully staffed bar, lounge seating areas, a buffet counter, a dance floor with a pole, sauna, and showers. An upper floor of themed playrooms — including a mirror room, jungle room, Egyptian suite, baroque room, blue room, cuddle room, and an 80-square-metre BDSM area — opens on Friday and Saturday evenings once a threshold of roughly seventy advance Joyclub registrations is reached. All entry prices cover unlimited drinks (including alcohol and spirits), a hot-and-cold buffet, towels, bathrobes, condoms, and hygiene supplies. A seasonal outdoor garden with a smoking terrace rounds out the facilities. The club operates three sessions per week: Wednesday afternoons (10:00–17:00), Friday evenings (18:00–01:00), and Saturday nights (20:00–03:00). Door prices, quoted from the club’s own site, are €60/€90/€100 for couples, €20/€25/€30 for single women, and €110/€120/€130 for single men (Wednesday/Friday/Saturday). A €10 refundable locker-key deposit applies; payment is cash only. Joyclub members who pre-register for events receive a discounted rate. The dress code is strictly enforced: women in lingerie, clubwear, or fetish attire; men in fitted clubwear or fetish clothing — jeans and street clothes are refused at the door. Mobile phones and photography are prohibited throughout the premises.

Club 101

Dayton, OH

On-Premise Club

Club 101 has been Dayton's oldest on-premise members-only lifestyle club for roughly 25 years, anchored at 101 Avondale Drive in a discreet building with private parking. The layout centres on a large open main room with a dance floor, DJ booth, pool table, and adult movie lounge with couches — the club takes evident pride in its DJ show, billing it as the best of any area lifestyle venue. Off the social floor, the space branches into five private rooms sized for one or two couples, two semi-private rooms with windows designed for optional exhibitionism, one large open group room, a slightly smaller group room with a mirrored wall, and a massage table room with BDSM possibilities. Showers, lockers, and a cooler for BYOB drinks round out the practical amenities, with free snacks and soda on hand throughout the night. The crowd skews toward mature, consenting adults — beginners and veterans alike — and the no-pressure ethos is reinforced at every level, from signage to staff. The club is active on Swingtowns, SDC, SLS, SZC, and Fetlife, and maintains a lively theme-party calendar (past events include a Denim & Diamonds Glowy Party and Pasties & Panties nights). In a public-health gesture, management partners with Shameless Care to offer members a free STI education course and supplies.

Belmont, Western Australia

On-Premise Club

Club 103 is a lifestyle and swingers club occupying a two-storey building at 103 Abernethy Road in Belmont, Western Australia, a short drive from Perth's CBD, Crown Casino, and the city's airports. The venue pitches itself as a space that bridges the longstanding Perth swingers scene with the broader kinkster community, and its stated aim is to feel 'more like a house party with friends, rather than a cold modernistic building.' It welcomes members regardless of gender or sexual orientation, and onsite parking is available. The club's two floors are fitted out with a range of dedicated spaces: a Dungeon Room (available for private hire), a Secretarial Room, a Group Room, an Exhibitionist Voyeur Room, and a Private Room, along with an outdoor area. Common areas include a dance floor with a spinning pole, a social lounge with a pool table, and two showers. Soft drinks and snacks are available from vending machines; there is no bar, and the venue operates strictly BYO for alcohol.

Sessions run most days of the week, with daytime openings Monday, Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday (roughly noon to 3pm) and evening sessions Wednesday through Friday from around 8–8:30pm to 2am; Saturday evenings run 8:30pm to 2am, with Tuesday and Sunday closed. All times are noted as variable. The dress code is smart casual at minimum, with hosts reserving the right to refuse entry for non-compliance. The club operates a traffic-light consent system (green/amber/red) and prohibits touching anyone without expressed permission. No alcohol is sold or served on the premises; intoxicated persons and illicit substances are not permitted.

The building encompasses multiple designated play spaces alongside a dungeon, a spa area with saunas and a jacuzzi, and an outdoor deck; wet areas are consistently cited as a highlight by attendees. A licensed bar operates on a fully cashless basis, with drinks frequently described by guests as well-priced. Reviewers characterise the overall feel as ‘huge but still intimate,’ crediting thoughtful layout and attentive floor staff. The club carries a strong LGBTQ+-inclusive identity, hosting dedicated Bi-Day and Bi Friday events alongside a rotating programme of specialist nights including Dark Velvet (an interracial night, trans-inclusive), Curve Nation (body-positive), U2-4-US2 (couples and single ladies only), and seasonal Temptations parties.

London, London

Alternative Club Night

Club AntiChrist describes itself as “a huge London club night for Alternative people” and says it is “queer friendly.” It moves between venues, most recently Scala in King's Cross, and says it runs roughly every three months. Its About page says it was founded in 2004 and relaunched in 2007. At Scala the night runs on several floors. Multiple dancefloors cover metal, 80s, goth, post-punk, dark electro and industrial, a Theatre stages fire, aerial, comedy and gorelesque shows plus a live band, and the dungeon has Benchmarxxx equipment such as St Andrew's Crosses, spanking benches and a swing, with Dungeon Monitors who help newcomers.

Entry is 18+ with physical photo ID that the venue scans. An alternative dress code is enforced, with no refund if guests are refused for it, and outside food and drink is not allowed. Cameras need a club photopass, the club has a strict no-drugs policy, and guests must ask before touching anyone: breaking that rule means ejection and a lifetime ban.

Club Culture Houze

Berlin, Berlin

On-Premise Club

Club Culture Houze is a long-running sex-party venue on Görlitzer Straße in Berlin's Kreuzberg district, a short walk from the U1 Görlitzer Bahnhof and U Schlesisches Tor stops. Operating since 1996 and currently managed by Veronika, it has built its identity around radical sexual inclusivity — hosting themed nights across the full spectrum of orientation and gender: gay men, trans and non-binary guests, bisexual and pansexual crowds, femdom circles, fetish communities, and mixed-orientation couples alike. The venue describes itself explicitly as a "Safer Space" and takes a firm stance against exclusionary or demeaning behaviour at every event. The club occupies two floors. The upper level holds a cosy loft fitted with comfortable couches, pillows, a massage table, and a long bar; the lower floor opens onto a larger play space with leather furniture, slings, cages, a darkroom, and a video room. Free condoms, lubricant, and gloves are available at the bar alongside mouthwash; paper towels and sanitising sprays are positioned throughout the play areas. A snack buffet is on offer during events, and a cloakroom handles clothing and valuables storage. The atmosphere is notably smaller and more intimate than typical Berlin mega-clubs — visitors regularly describe the staff as friendly and personally attentive. Private venue hire is available for parties, photoshoots, film productions, and group meetings. Events run every night of the week, with programming shifting nightly. Recurring highlights include Naked SEX on Mondays — a gay men's night with mandatory nudity, running 19:00–23:45 — and Friday Fist / Fist Factory on most Fridays (20:00–03:00), with a dress code of rubber, leather, or fetish attire. Midweek slots rotate through Trans & Friends, Poly/Pan Experience (Bi Plus Night), QueerBeet (FTM/MTF BDSM and sex party), FAKT! (femdom evening), and bear-focused, masked, and BDSM-for-beginners nights. Entry fees vary by event: a third-party visitor account reported approximately €13 admission plus a €7 mandatory drink spend on a standard night; the masked Fuck with Unknown event is priced at €20 including a first drink; Folsom-weekend specials reach €35 and above. All payments are cash only — card payments are not accepted.

The calendar mixes meet and greets, pre-party potlucks, themed dance parties, Darq fetish parties and Famous 5 parties. Everyone attends as an approved member with a ticket; applying is free, entry is denied without an approved membership and ticket, and approved members see the exact address after logging in. Unless an event says otherwise, men attend only with a female date or a member couple and stay with a female member in the play zones. Outside drinks are not permitted.

On-Premise Club

Club F is a members-only swinger club at 6 High Street in Stanley, County Durham (DH9 0DQ), which bills itself as the best swingers club in the North East and has been described in local press as the closest venue of its kind to Teesside. Operated as a private membership club rather than a licensed premises, it handles all booking and enquiries by text message only; new members are expected to make contact before their first visit, and annual membership is £30 for couples, single men, and single women alike. The venue includes a bar area alongside on-site hotel accommodation and a set of play spaces that include a dungeon and themed rooms.

Accommodation is available on the night in three tiers: private hotel rooms at £35, shared rooms with two double beds at £30 per couple, and crash accommodation at £15 per person.

Regular sessions run Friday and Saturday from 8pm to 1:30am. On the first Tuesday of each month, the club hosts Tease Tuesdays, a daytime event from 10am to 2pm with reduced entry — £15 for single men and couples, and complimentary for single women.
