January 9th 2022

Over the years, Swamp occasionally had an educational interactive presentation/discussion on a particular subject (Household Bondage, Household S&M, History of BDSM, Life of a Pro Domme), whilst we haven’t done one for a while, Captivated_Rose has stepped forward to provide a 30-40min presentation/discussion on “Disabilities in Kink” how you can adapt play for a disabled person, worries/fears, neurodivergencies etc – and considering the current topic of diversity and equality is big in the media at the moment, it should prove both interesting and thought provoking.

AND …..

Whip_cracker has also stepped forward to provide a demo, and is currently undecided on whether it will be impact 101 or whips. Now he’s not given too much away at the moment but if he does decide on the whips, in the past we have had fire whips, neon/ultra violet whips, bullwhips, single tails, whip wrapping and whip stunts – and he always keeps the demo details quite close to his chest, which makes things more spectacular on the actual day. If he goes with Impact Play 101, it will be an interesting, informative, educational (and likely interactive) time for people of all stages and experience.

Captivated_Rose presentation/discussion will start @14.30
Whip_cracker Impact 101 or Whip demo will start @15.30

We’re Back! Sunday 12th December 2021

WE. ARE. BACK !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Finally, after what seems to be an eternity or delays, lockdowns, jabs, swabs, screening etc etc, Swamp is finally making a return, and what better time to come back than December. As our first one back in such a long time, it’s almost like we are starting from scratch again and we have a lot of details to give out, so please take the time to read the entire post (thanks).

“Christmas time, Mistletoe and Wine” ……. AND Swamp!!!!!

Firstly lets address the elephant in the room, after my ‘teaser’ announcement, a lot of people were expecting us to reopen in November. After much consideration, we decided not to for the following reasons; we always clash with the Remembrance Parades and it is very difficult for us and the traders to get to the event due to the various road closures for multiple hours. As we have been away for such a long time, we need time to check the equipment and give it all a bloody good clean. And finally, it gives the both the traders and the attendees more time to make plans for the day.

A December return also makes more sense as it has always been a special celebratory anniversary/birthday month for Swamp. It’s probably the most fun month of all the Swamp events, it has a much more party atmosphere – December Swamp is just that little bit more special. We have chocs, mince pies, Christmas music (sadly, only liberally sprinkled into the music mix due to Scrooge McSteve!) and we encourage festive dress for both day and evening events if anyone would like to wear it.

As has become something of a tradition in the last few December Swamp events (well the ones we were actually opened for) and gone down very well (and therefore back by popular demand), I am pleased to announce the return of Burlesque performances as our ‘Demo’ month.

Yes, indeed returning we have burlesque and flow art performances from SailorSeb and her team of burlesque dancers, with provocative, stylish and fun dancing routines. Full cast and details have not yet been provided, so, expect the unexpected and downright naughty from each performance!

…. we hope this will whet your appetite!

If memory serves me correctly, SailorSeb will also be celebrating a birthday, so please feel free to wish her a happy one!

TRADERS:-
Please contact Anita in the usual way if you wish to have a stall with us in December, there has been no changes to the fees, and payment in the usual way. We are hoping to have a good attendance in December (traditionally it is always good, and post 20months of lockdown, we are hoping people are just itching to come back). Once we get nearer to the date, we will announce the traders that will be with us.

COVID RULES:-
At this precise moment in time, there are no specific Covid restrictions in England. At present, you do not need to provide ‘vaccine passports’, wear masks inside etc etc. However, the situation is constantly changing and rules being implemented and discarded on a regular basis. ‘Lockdown’ is being bandied about again in the media as well. Please ensure you keep yourself safe and others by ensuring you attend only if you have none of the – well documented – Covid symptoms. We will do our best to keep up to date with everything on the day.

TIMES:-
Unfortunately for us, and only just dropped on us yesterday, OMG has decided to trial opening on a Sunday night. Whether this becomes a permanent thing is anyone’s guess and naturally dependant on their usual club attendance. They initially asked us to be packed up and finished by 10pm. We have renegotiated to increase this to 11pm. So the equipment and our cloakroom, has to be packed away by then. Luckily this will not interfere with the usual dungeon play and usual dungeon shutdown times (we will just have to be quicker packing the stuff away and asking you to collect your coats and bags a little earlier than usual. We have not yet been asked that everyone must leave the club the club by 11pm, and are awaiting clarification. IF OMG is happy for people to stay, it might work in their favour as the club will be open longer, if not, then everyone has to be out an hour earlier than usual.

As soon as we know, we are hoping to announce a range of traders, from our regular traders, new traders and returning traders, so please come along and keep supporting the market. Hopefully we will continue to see them all return on a regular basis. In fact, why not stay for the entire event and enjoy the party atmosphere in the evening/night.

Swamp; part market, part munch, part party, part educational/practical workshops, part gathering, but most importantly, all fun. A place where you can be comfortable and relaxed being whoever/whatever you would like to be.

Swamp Christmas Party Sunday 12th December 2021 OMG Club, Frog Lane, Bristol – with our usual traders, new traders, demo’s, rope play areas, day dungeon, after market play party, free mince pies, free chocs, festive dress and overall fun party atmosphere, there are so many reasons to come early and stay for the entire event.

Hope to see you there.

Cancelled Until Further Notice

It is with a heavy heart that we have to report the cancellation of April’s Swamp event.

We had hoped things may have improved enough to hold the event in a few weeks time, but it appears this Coronavirus (COVID-19) is not going away anytime soon.

Clearly from the statistical information being presented in other countries and the increasing number of cases being reported in the UK, this virus is in for the long haul and (as quoted so many times in the news recently) we are currently in ‘unprecedented times’ with massive restrictions on movement and social gatherings in order to stem the disease progression.

As Swamp is one of those ‘large social gatherings’, we have therefore made the decision to cancel the event in April, but are hoping restrictions will have improved in order for us to reopen for our usual date in May (keep an eye out for any update postings on our message board). This announcement is probably not that unexpected as all kinds of events have been cancelled over the last week.

Whilst we will try to spread the word, if you know of anyone who does not use Fetlife but attends Swamp, we would be grateful if you could please pass on the message.

The Impact Demo by F3Works will naturally be postponed until their next convenient month.

Apologies to all those who were looking forward to coming in April. Stay safe, stay healthy.

February Fire Play on Sunday 9th

February is best known for two major things – it’s the last full month of winter, and also the month of Valentine, fiery passion, lust and hot lurrrve.

Over the many years, a fire theme has become somewhat of a tradition with the Swamp event in February, so what better way to warm those cold hands/bodies and fan those flames of passion by joining us on Sunday 9th, for our February demo on alternative ways to keep warm with our old flames – The Fire Crew.

The Fire Crew – Hyperbolt, Grippa, lil_emily (and maybe a few others) will be here with one of our most popular, entertaining and visually stunning demo’s of the year. From mid afternoon and (usually) until the end of the evening, the gang are more than happy to singe, dab, burn, and caress your body with various torches and body burning. If this is something you have not yet tried, we can heartily recommend it, and if this is something you have not yet seen, we highly recommend it!

And while you are there, why not browse and enjoy our multiple traders (see Swamp website for a list of expected traders). Remember, it is your support of the market section of Swamp, that enables it to continue.

So whether you are a regular, newbie or returnee, come along to one of the friendliest fetish market/party events in the UK.

Swamp, part market, part munch, part party, part educational/practical workshops, part gathering, but most importantly, all fun. A place where you can be comfortable and relaxed being whoever/whatever you would like to be.

Sunday August 11th 2019 Pony Play with Sir Guy

This month we have a Pony Play, Puppy Play, Maid Training Demo and Workshop provided by Sir Guy Masterleigh.

Sir Guy is involved in training maids, human-ponies, puppies, and male slaves at his Dragao Verde home in Portugal, and will bring along a number of his ‘stable’ such as maids in uniform, ponies in harness, puppies on a lead and a ‘yard boy’ in uniform etc, to show them off and let them speak about their experiences/adventures: and invite others to participate too.

Whilst full details of this demo are under wraps, this is something we are unable to obtain very often; it is quite different to our usual demos and certainly something not to be missed.

While you are paying us a visit, why not browse and enjoy all our multiple traders (see Swamp website for a list of expected traders), so please come along and support the traders and the market side of Swamp, as it is your support of the market that enables it to continue.

Sunday June 9th 2019 Sensual Demo with Harleypants

Back in April, when searching for a demo idea, we were given the choice of ‘Sensual’ or ‘Shocking’, naturally we went for ‘Shocking’ and Harleypants provided a memorable wax horror performance to a greatly appreciative crowd. This month, we get the second part of that demo, the ‘Sensual’ section which will include Sensory Deprivation, along with Sensual Chain and Wax Play. These performances, and (usually) subsequent workshops are not to be missed.
