Power Exchange

Power Exchange describes itself as “a private 18+ adult nightclub located in downtown San Francisco”, and says it has operated since 1996. Its event pages call it a pansexual sex club open to all genders and orientations, and it is open Wednesday through Sunday nights at 220 Jones Street. The main floor and downstairs are open to everyone and the third floor to couples and single guests in female attire, and specific nights open all three floors to everyone. The club calls itself semi-private: play areas are viewable by other members, and chains across doorways separate the crowd from a scene. Lockers are free for guests who bring a lock, and a coat check costs a small fee. Recurring nights include Hump Night, Wicked Wednesday, Casual Encounters, Foreplay and Exposed. Admission is open to adults 18 and over with valid government-issued ID, and tickets are sold through Eventbrite or at the door; membership is optional and discounts entry. The rules ban alcohol, drugs, sleeping, cell phones, cameras, solicitation and touching others without permission, and require condoms for penetration. Uninvited advances bring immediate removal, and violations mean removal without a refund. Single men must wear a collared shirt; shorts, sweats and workout clothing are not allowed.
