"Guys and girls. If you was to create your own swingers club with an unlimited budget financially. How would it look like, and what would it consist of? We are looking at creating a club in the jewellery quarter or Edgbaston area of Birmingham exclusive for 100-150 people that looks like a boudoir and is invite only. Let us know what you think. Would appreciate the feedback. " You would have to a brave person to go up against arguably the two best Clubs in the country and both of which are in the Midlands. My advice would be to save your money or open one in the SE (somewhere like Brighton). | |||

"Eurekas is deffo the one to go to, chilled atoms there hot tubs, sauna & steam room cabins to hire if you want to stay over, dance floor and music etc really is a great night " Totally agree with babylove. Yep we're best friends in reality too. Initially met through this club. Attend regularly. The only club I'm happy going to alone too. Which is how I initially started attending this club. I have been to other clubs and found them intimidating and clicky as a single bi gal. The staff are all so aproacheable and the owners are always about over seeing proceedings too. EUREKAS ROCKS!! is how I sum it up really! | |||

"I agree with you guys who say that there are clubs out there which are perfect. What I am trying to say is that I'm sure that every city in the Country should have a great swingers club. The swinging industry will only get bigger year upon year and continue to have thousands more people joining every year. I believe there is scope to have lots of clubs around the country. I wanted some opinions in what are the things people look for in a great club. " Just one suggestion "Talk with club owners even the very good ones in England are struggling to break even with money". To open a super club per invite only will not pay the bills which come every month through the letter box; we have been to some clubs in England and some in Germany, Holland and Switzerland and each club had its' different "charm", but as most owners say it is down to the swingers themselves what they make out of a club | |||

"Thanks guys for feedback. We want to create a massive open area where there are no walls. So that everyone can see everything. The rooms which would be for private use would be made of glass walls. So that people can still see but cannot enter the room as it would be locked by the ones who are using them inside. We would like to have one area where there will be no clothes area. So only underwear can be worn. Also having games where everyone is involved. So for example a padlock event where women have padlocks on their wrist and the men have the keys. So everyone has to chat to one another and see if their keys work. And then they can play with that person. Also would like to have certain perks such as free food and maybe free drinks on certain events. Numbers would be limited and so would invites and parties would be held once a week or every fortnight. " Straight away that's me not visiting, not everyone likes an audience | |||

Would appreciate the feedback. Poole could do with a decent club, needs big jacuzzi or two, poole, big wet room several private rooms with decent lighting, big playroom with 360 access, viewing rooms Dark room and swing rooms, plus cafe and smoke room. You would have to a brave person to go up against arguably the two best Clubs in the country and both of which are in the Midlands. My advice would be to save your money or open one in the SE (somewhere like Brighton)." | |||

"I think opening a new club you will never cater for all needs and wants as everyone is different, some like dress down, closed rooms, open rooms, wet areas, dry areas, the list of likes and dislikes could go on forever. Personally I think clubs are less busy over the last 5 years, I remember when we first started going to clubs years ago and the likes of La Chambre and Cupids were buzzing and full where you usually struggled to get a room, il admit we've not been to either in the year as we found it very hit and miss with sometimes only a handful of people there. Other clubs might be different and just goes to show that opinions are different, some people may have visited these clubs and it have been busy. As for opening a club in a region where apparently the 2 best clubs are..... I love a bit of competition and if they are as busy as what they claim to be then there's your answer, just do what they have done but better!" I agree with you I started going Abfab in 2006 it was always heaving now it's hit and miss. I think some of the problem is how much some clubs charge also amenities help. I'd say to the OP that keeping the entrance fee reasonable would help | |||

"There have been a couple of these threads of late. Opening a club has to address two basic issues - the business model and then the psychology of swinging to determine what you should provide. Taking the business model first, is swinging an expanding or decreasing market? - probably the former. If clubs are quieter than they used to be, is that because they are less popular, or they are not providing exactly what an ever more discerning customer base wants? - probably the latter. So you either open up in competition with existing clubs and offer something better, OR choose a less competitive location and look for new customers. Like it or not, there is more disposable income in the south east than the midlands/north. Someone above mentioned Fun4Two in Holland - regularly voted best swinging club in the world - we have been and tend to agree - there is nothing even close in the UK. What the OP is suggesting is building a "destination" swingers club, rather than just a 'locals' one. When it comes to facilities and psychology, with respect OP you are a bit off. First - car parking - you must have your own so people feel discreet about arriving. Entrance policy and charging - decide on one then rigorously enforce it 100% at all times. Décor - you want dark/bold colours, with very soft lighting to make everyone look their best. Now the most important bit - NO WIDE OPEN LOUNGE AREAS. Think about it - lots of people say that smoking areas are the most social in clubs (it certainly is at ABfabs) - why? Because people are sitting AROUND a table - face to face - you HAVE to communicate, and that leads to play. Sitting side by side on sofas, staring at an empty bed or dance floor doesn't get anyone feeling comfortable - or sexy. This is the biggest single point that clubs seem to miss. OP4FUN in London is the best example of this - its tiny, so you are all squashed up together and have to talk - it leads to lots of play and a good vibe. Lockers - full size, included with entry, so easy to get changed and freshen up. Free condoms, in bowls everywhere. BYOB, served from behind a bar by a bar person, free soft drinks. Price in a free bottle of fizz with entry for every couple. The glass walls are a great idea, but a massive mistake also - they will show every tiny fingerprint and look filthy and disgusting about 10 minutes after you open as a result. Female hostess to show new members around - she needs to be older, slightly glamorous and slightly flirty with the LADIES - to make them feel comfortable. LOTS of toilets! Facilities - people expect the following, and while not for everyone they will give the broadest possible appeal hot tub - dungeon/sex swing - orgy/anything goes room - darkroom - lockable/private rooms - sex cinema/porn room - warm and covered smoking area (a slightly higher %age of swingers smoke than the general population - its a fact) Theme and style nights - different themes/dress codes/styles for different nights. Think REALLY carefully about the details of ergonomics eg. height of beds/benches - hangers for clothes in play areas - where can I put my handbag/drink etc. In summary, to do it properly - and be a step above anything else in the UK - will require heavy investment, beginning with the right location and premises, and then building the details from there. If we had the money we would do it - but spend at least 12 months planning etc before even starting the fitting out." Don't forget that Councils are now refusing new premises or banning them to industry estates where if you are a single female parking up and having to walk to door you will feel unsafe. Flips has its' own car park secure and with CCTV's plus has three bedroom suites which are great if you are "dead" tired. No as said you need "shit" loads of money and loads of time to create a Super club..... | |||

Not everything will transfer to the UK but you would certainly pick up a few ideas. | |||
