" If I may :- for the foreseeable future “swinging” as we know it should perhaps have the title of “erotic socialising”. Social distancing even when reduced (if) to 1 metre would have a significant effect on the numbers to be allowed into any every day club - never mind a swingers club. Social elective play “bubbles” would likely mean a small group ARRIVING & leaving together & being requested to sign a declaration of “no C19 symptoms“ and a waiver to indemnify the club. & possibly a temp check before entry. Those with underlying health issues - well how do we even begin to deal with that ?. To enable track & trace it is very likely that each individual would have to provide name, address & future contact details at each visit and systematically logged. In social areas - open areas, Masks would also be required & made mandatory from arrival to departure. So permanent masquerade party time. Changing rooms would have to be closely monitored as would toilets - showers etc etc. Clubs with smaller facilities may struggle to adopt these “rules”. Whilst the vast majority of clubs are well maintained - eg anti bacterial Etc - increased frequency & cleaning of “bubble” play rooms. Jacuzzi’s & sauna faculties could not be used at all. Air conditioning may have issues around use. & so the concerns & provisions must be considered. All items can be achieved with planning/process & procedures in place, attentive staff & the cooperation of the customers. So “Erotic Socialising” for want of a better term until such time as a vaccine has be developed & has proven results. These are just a few of the items that CLUB owners are considering & concerned about at the moment. So please bare with us & hope as we do for the best outcome xx Bruce/Cupids " Seriously? . It would be sexier to get a liver transplant! Sex clubs will not reopen until social distancing has ended. | |||

I/we don’t know. 2 what would this mean under current data protection laws ? I/we don’t know 3 when will you know how clubs - swingers clubs in particular be given regs,rules & specific guidance to protect customers & staff ? You guessed it - we don’t know. 4 are you not being very pessimistic about opening your own club ? Perhaps but I like other owners are trying to be realistic & finding risk mitigating ways by which we can prepare & protect our business, staff, customers Thanks for you messages & questions.

Other clubs are also fed up of the negativity on 'the clubs re-opening subject' and are just not commenting at all now. It's been down to me and Brucey and we are fed up of the club bashing and the same shit day in day out. There will be no facts at all...just heresay from people who are not in communication with the public health authorities. I could do with a break from the forums anyway. TTFN xxx | |||

"According to the latest news, there is a glimmer of hope that a vaccine will be available before the end of this year. A light at the end of a long tunnel for clubs to reopen." If in the unlikely event they get a vaccine 'before the end of year' it takes months after that to test the results to see if it efficient enough. So vaccine cure if found still many months away | |||

"There’s already many vaccines, 2 made by the UK, Germany, US, China have their own versions etc The problem isn’t designing a vaccine we’ve already done that - it’s making sure one or more firstly works and secondly is safe - UK vaccine trials starting in April the second vaccine trial is starting now So it al depends on how well they’ve designed them and possibly a bit of luck - it may work quickly or if all they fail a lot longer " Well Astra Zenica are already manufacturing the Oxford Uni vaccine so lets hope it passes cinical trials eh | |||

Where did u get this news from. Can we stop spreading false news pls"That is not the full picture. The Balearics have said the Super Clubs won’t open this year. But smaller ones will be allowed to open. And the really big Ibiza Clubs just wouldn’t work this summer anyway. We need to be carfeful how we disseminate information.

" It's not about being positive or negative, it's about being realistic. Yes, all businesses are eventually going to reopen, but sex clubs will not be at the top of the list.

You should be pleased people are still showing an interest to return to jacuzzis and small environments for sex maybe?, instead of barking at them on all available mentioned posts. | |||

If you "want to risk it" do it on your own terms/ premises.
Clubs that dont open for your pleasure and are thinking of the safety of their customers and staff are to be praised for thinking about others rather than trying to make quick money.
I miss clubs (miss) but I'm prepared to wait, as the term ( like a child at Christmas) frustrating as it is, it's for the best | |||

"That doesn’t really answer the OP question of what licensing group or category they come under now does it " Swingers clubs are in a GREY area & undefined. Considered Somewhere between an everyday night club/pub & a sauna or gym. However in none of those (usually) there is no sexual contact. The swingers clubs & their owners have to interpret guidelines that will & do apply to the above & go to great lengths to ensure its VERY safe to open at the right time. Hope this helps.

"There's tons of other forum posts about this. Clubs will not be opening for swinging parties at the beginning of July. For reasons why, refer to the other forum posts in this category "Totally Social distancing and no close contact with family away from your home and other people'is still inforce This puts us one of the highest risk catergories and one of the last industries to legally reopen. Those with bars that obide by rules could open for socials but there could be no swinging side to this for health and safety reasons Im shocked people aren't getting this how high risk the scene is.. and even advertising parties... | |||

"Just one thought. I noticed that in order to remove the 14 day quarantine they are talking of using a swab for Covid that has results in seven hours. Perhaps weekend events accom on-site or tents caravans etc after tests could be the way ? Intense but less frequent events perhaps " Yes but those tests at airports are not free they are very expensive, so it would be the same for a swingers club and most people wouldn't go through that it's not a pleasant experience. | |||

" Very soon hopefully Some people seem to think it will not be until we get a vaccine, “ that may never happen “. I think it this will be the case. The big detail in all of this is 'social distancing' and this is impossible at a swingers clubs. Normal nightclubs will struggle to get a licence so what chance does a swingers club have If the instances of new infections keeps falling then social distancing can be and in my opinion will be ended before a vaccine is found and available to all. Even if we do get vaccine it won't be available to the majority for a few years. " Source? | |||

"That doesn’t really answer the OP question of what licensing group or category they come under now does it " to be fair the one club owner who took their time to point people in the direction of where that info may be given has basically been chewed out by people (and an op) for pointing people in the direction of where the question may be answered.... they cant win for not knowing.... and i am sure as soon as they know we will know!!!! it is what it is.... they open when they open!!! | |||

"Sex clubs are same as any club from a licensing perspective (Licensing Act 2003). They could theoretically open like any bar or leisure facility from 4 July. However like every business they will have to have a COVID secure risk assessment demonstrating compliance with govt guidance ( not yet published!). This will inevitably mean ensuring social distancing and other measures, practically I can only imagine them turning into voyeur clubs or something with clearly no playing. Enforcement rests with Local govt EHOs but quite how they will do so is interesting!! But if a club is found to be non compliant they face prohibition, an fpn ( up to £3200) prosecution and also face losing their licence!! Hope this helps" | |||

Of course your completely correct in everything you say. !! "you seem to have once again entirely missed the point of my post everything you say, everything i say, everything anyone in this thread says is nothing but conjecture because the rules haven't been written yet so nobody knows them ... so no i am not completely correct in what i say, but im not on the thread claiming my ideas will be the future of clubs  | |||

"Because they shout down any opposing opinions " But nobody else's opinion matters unless everyone on Fab said they were not going to go back to Swinger's Clubs. They Club owners in consultation with the local council and government guidelines will decide when they can legally reopen. Unless Boris and his colleagues are on Fab then whatever is said doesn't matter. Those that support their local Club will do so when they can, those who don't still won't. | |||

"Not sure where this 2m rule comes from it's not law it's guidence and hopefully this week we will see a reduction in this advice The social distancing advice won't remain forever if it did the government would continue to have to bail out every small business where distancing can't be achieved Inc tattooists gyms sports therapists schools not to mention big companies such as airlines hotels And before a certain someone comments I haven't mentioned clubs I am commenting on social distancing being relaxed this year " You mean completely by the end of the year? | |||

"Would think so Airport's are aiming to be fully open by July same as hotels Can't really see any airports coping with distancing rules not with a flight taking off every 4 mins or with fully booked flights taking people on there already booked holidays Tattooists are hoping to open July too can't get tattoo from 2m away Swimming baths which are mostly council owned are also waiting on announcements this week" So where is the virus going? It's just gonna disappear in 6 months? Only about 5% of the population have been infected and even they may not have developed . This is far from over | |||

"Unfortunately we have been ones that have had to continue to work through all this and in jobs that cannot be done from home So have been at higher risk throughout Not all work with have done could be achieved at the 2 m advice you just have to use common sense and limit the exposure time " Yes all of that is agreed except that the scientist and virologists do know fairly accurately now the percentage of people infected. The fact is that social distancing across the globe will be in place until a vaccine is successfully administered and/or the virus weakens. If anything, according to the ‘experts’ it’s going to pep up again this winter . Why would social distancing be scrapped with the potential of further and more severe waves ? It would take a miracle for social distancing to be removed across the world before 2022. | |||

"Unfortunately we have been ones that have had to continue to work through all this and in jobs that cannot be done from home So have been at higher risk throughout Not all work with have done could be achieved at the 2 m advice you just have to use common sense and limit the exposure time Yes all of that is agreed except that the scientist and virologists do know fairly accurately now the percentage of people infected. The fact is that social distancing across the globe will be in place until a vaccine is successfully administered and/or the virus weakens. If anything, according to the ‘experts’ it’s going to pep up again this winter . Why would social distancing be scrapped with the potential of further and more severe waves ? It would take a miracle for social distancing to be removed across the world before 2022. " how do they accurately know if they haven't tested us? the people they are testing are from specific high risk sectors or people with symptoms so that cant be representative and has to skew results | |||

" Very soon hopefully Some people seem to think it will not be until we get a vaccine, “ that may never happen “. I think it this will be the case. The big detail in all of this is 'social distancing' and this is impossible at a swingers clubs. Normal nightclubs will struggle to get a licence so what chance does a swingers club have If the instances of new infections keeps falling then social distancing can be and in my opinion will be ended before a vaccine is found and available to all. Even if we do get vaccine it won't be available to the majority for a few years. " the flu jab doesn't even work | |||

"Social distancing across the globe is already being scrapped Spain for one is fully open and ready for tourists as are other country's The UK economy will not survive unless its scrapped before 2022 If people are waiting on a vaccine they will be waiting forever no vaccine was created for sars and the flu vaccine was started in 1974 and even now it doesn't fully work for everyone We already have a tablet that can help some people who get covid severe Think this is best we can hope for " So you think mass gatherings, ie football, concerts etc will be back in full by the end of 2020? Pubs, for example will be jam packed with no social distancing by xmas?! | |||

" like I say at the end of the day it’s peoples liveleyhoods that we’re talking about so maybe show some compassion and wait for them to update us all after all they are the ones in the know not us" Talking about what may or may not happen is allowed in this section as it is for club discussion. People who are likely to use the clubs when they open will want to chat as well as some club owners. | |||

"4th July almost everything is open again. Are swinging clubs (mostly classed as private members clubs) in the same category as leisure centres? Basically when are they allowed to open again? "Some will be classed as Pubs, others Spa's, others Nightclubs, others Social Clubs, others naturist camping sites, etc. If some of hospitality is given the green light shortly then some may open if they put in place all the other government restrictions about to be announced, social distancing, cleaning, screens etc. and sex with others is taken off the agenda for the time being. Prove to Public Health you're not an issue to them at the moment and you'll be allowed to open, the authorities are keen to get as many back to work as possible. However, push the rules and cause an issue...guess what! Time for some serious common sense in our opinion. | |||

How are you going to convince a licensing board that the swingers club you are opening up is for social purposes only and no sex will take place in this swingers club? "Most clubs have already convinced a licencing board of their intentions and credentials...when they obtained their licences to operate in the first place. Now its down to the clubs to implement new rules to ensure they don't loose their hard fought for licences! And of course, their guests who can assist. | |||

"Some clubs have licensed bars and out door areas so restrictions can be put into place They will open up as a standard pub but for like minded people to have drink and a chat about the lifestyle or whatever Just cause its a swingers club doesn't mean sex has to happen many people still use clubs to socialise and meet others in the scene Others on the scene may just want to see friends they have made in the scene Clubs will enforce the no sex rule same as they enforce any other rules such as touching without asking Oh come on !! Clubs are kept alive by the membership and admission money the single guys pay. They men pay that in the hope of getting a fuck. If there is no sex the men wont come. The clubs wont be kept alive by a few couples "erotically socializing" You can do that in the pub or at private house meets No sex = no men = no income It's a no-brainer. " | |||

Spain has just announced that they will not be opening any nightclubs in 2020 and possibly not even 2021 unless a vaccine or drugs are found to treat Covid . Where does that leave us?! Surely no nightclubs will not open in 2020 and likewise unfortunately with clubs . "Yes i read the same. The party island of Ibiza wont be opening clubs this year under instructions of the Balearic goverment. | |||
