Illuminaughty (San Francisco)

Illuminaughty (San Francisco) describes itself as “a private members club for swingers, ENM couples, and sex positive singles”. It hosts events every month in the Bay Area, with cocktail mixers and play parties, for couples and singles aged 21 to 49, and its San Francisco page says it launched its first swinger party in early 2024. Membership costs nothing but requires an application, and not everyone is approved. Parties are held at member-owned or rented private residences, from single-family houses to high-rise apartments and country estates. Multiple rooms are set up for various experiences, which can include massage tables, a large bed for group play and spaces with BDSM and kink toys, though advanced BDSM play is not allowed. Most events admit couples, single women, non-binary members and a small number of single men, and security checks tickets and that everyone is at least 21. Approved members can buy tickets, and the address goes to ticket holders on the day of the event. Parties are BYOB, doors close after the arrival window, and an opening talk covers consent and rules. Each party has a dress theme, and consent violations, photos after the opening talk, illegal substances or money exchange for acts mean removal and cancelled membership.
