July 9th Collaring Celebration & Smart Watch Alert

Come and celebrate more than just summer on the 9th July at SWAMP…

To start things off we are very pleased to be hosting a Collaring Ceremony at 1pm and the main participants are happy to have everyone join them for their celebration. This will take place in the demo/workshop area. As this is taking place before 2pm there will be no charge for entry but you will still need to pick up a ticket at the front desk before entering.

Our bi-monthly bondage workshop takes place at 2.30pm and runs alongside our vibrant fetish market. Entry to the workshop is £10 (or £7 if you arrive before 2pm) which also gives you access to the market and evening party.

A new problem was brought to our attention last month during the bondage workshop by one of our friends. During our last bondage workshop, whilst being tied, she felt her watch vibrating on her wrist, but didn’t pay any attention thinking the caller could call back later. Once untied she discovered it was her watch trying to contact with the emergency contacts or I.C.E numbers in her phone, thinking she had taken a fall. Fortunately, her phone didn’t have a signal in the venue so failed to connect. As she said, – ‘imagine that conversation with your mother!’ Her watch is an I-Phone 5, but they are now up to I-Phone 8, and they are even more sensitive and only give about a few seconds response time before they make calls for you.

So we would advise anyone with a smart watch that has this facility to remove it before taking part in any activity at SWAMP that could trigger an emergency call. Our cloakroom is very secure and constantly manned throughout the day if you are wanting to put it somewhere safe.

Not long now until Sunday – good times are just around the corner!

SWAMP June 11th – Good Times Continue…

So who’s looking forward to Sunday so we can create good times again – we definitely are! For June we have a Wrestling Demo presented by XWX Workshops at 2.30pm. To quote them:

“Have you ever been into or curious about ultimate surrender, or evolved fights, or kinky wrestling in general. Well come along to SWAMP, watch people enjoy the kink, ask questions, and if you’re still curious to know more join us for a mini workshop where we’ll cover the ins & outs of safety along with the skills used in the activity. You’ll learn new ways to enjoy rough foreplay.

If you’re interested in taking part in the mini workshop this’ll run for approximately 2hrs from 3-5pm. Please bring sports/active wear with you & arrive shower fresh. If you have any sort of fragile skin, please cover this up. Cut your nails – both toes & fingernails to a safe length. Whilst the workshop requires a level of fitness, it is open to all – interested or curious, and you can take part in as little or as much of the workshop as you like.

We look forward to rumblin’ with you.”

The £3 market ticket allows free entry into the demo and workshop, and if you arrive before 2pm it’s FREE!

The demo/workshop will run alongside our vibrant market, which seems to be getting busier with each month – we’ve definitely got enough quality traders to keep you busy throughout the afternoon. Please come along and support their hard work – it’s very much a cottage industry and you can feel happy knowing your support is very much appreciated by each and every one of them.

The evening party starts at 7pm and this month we have our Wax Workshop curated by Amanda & Rob from Bound In Submission & Leather. From this month we’ll have a dedicated area to take your close-ups of your wax handi-work too, so we look forward to seeing those pics on here during the following days. That’s in addition to our Violet Wand table and whatever else people decide to entertain us with!

Good times indeed…

April’s Demo & Changes To Dungeon Times

Have you ever wanted to fling a flogger, play with a paddle or sling a single tail? This month the f3werks team will be giving a basic introduction to impact play styles using different toy types. This will include a basic break down of how to use the toys, safety tips and the anatomy of how the toys are made. Entry to the demo is included in the £3 daytime market ticket price – or FREE if you come along before 2pm!

April’s event falls on the 9th, which this year happens to be part of the Easter Bank Holiday weekend. SWAMP will be taking place on the 9th as usual, but there will be a change to the finishing times of both of our dungeons, as well as our event. Our dungeons will now finish at 10pm instead of 11pm, with SWAMP finishing at 11pm instead of midnight. This is due to OMG wanting to open themselves at 11pm. This is not just a change for April though, but for every month until further notice. We have arranged for anyone who wishes to remain socialising at OMG to be able to do so without paying an additional entry price, but you will need to swap your SWAMP wristband for an OMG one at the  entrance at 11pm.

Fiery Fetish Fun For February 12th!

How is everyone? It’s been a 5 week month and seems like ages since the last SWAMP, we hope you’re all fireting fit and ready to embrace the February SWAMP.

For any newcomers out there (and I’m very pleased to say there are many), then you are in for a real treat this Sunday as SWAMP plays host to Nick, Grippa et al (the fire crew) for their entertaining and informative annual demo on Fireplay. We say demo but it always evolves into a workshop as it’s very rare for them to finish by 5pm, such is their enthusiasm for the topic. If you have any questions about fireplay these are the people to talk to, as they have over twenty years of experience to draw on. Proceedings will start at 3pm, so get here early if you want a seat, or to have a wander around our vibrant market first.

Speaking of which, we have a great selection this month. Seven Sin Latex are back to show you their latest creations, and Deadly Desires Kink Art will hopefully make it this time, after car trouble in December halted their attendance in December. Click here for the current list. The fun doesn’t stop with the daytime – aside from the fire crew hopefully hanging around for some play in the public dungeon, we also have @Mr_Mrs_Edgyyyyy‘s Needle Play workshop, @Papa-Rol‘s violet wand workshop, and a welcome return of our waxplay workshop, kindly put on by Amanda & Rob of @Bound-in-Leather.

From this month anyone buying a full day/party ticket will now be provided with a wristband rather than a ticket, which will make it easier for those that like to pop in and out for a smoke or a phone call – can we remind everyone that there are no mobile phones allowed inside SWAMP for everyone’s privacy, although we do provide a dedicated area inside the venue where you are free to use them.

That’s it for now – see you all Sunday!

SWAMP Sunday 13th November – Rope Tying & Toy Buying!

How is everyone doing? We’re part way through a five-week month and it already feels like ages since the last SWAMP.

This month it feels like we’re having another ‘return of’ moment for the bondage workshop, after the last attempt in September fell victim to road closures around the venue. So if you’re interested in rope bondage there’s all the more reason to come along and make up for it by tying/getting tied up for the afternoon on the 13th. The workshop starts at 2.30pm in the public dungeon space and runs until 5pm. Entry is £10 which includes entry to the market and evening party, or just £7 if you arrive before 2pm.

Lots of traders this month – the market’s steadily growing month by month – the traders need your support so if you can, buy from them rather than online, to ensure we make it worthwhile for their return and in so doing keeping the market vibrant.

With traders in mind we also have a small demo staged by one of our vendors – Kerry from Cotswold Wood Art this month. He will be demonstrating how to look after your wooden impact toys correctly – including a very helpful guide on what you should do if you’ve been a little heavy handed in play or with your storage. The demo will start at 3pm in the back dungeon alongside his stall, with a workshop running throughout the afternoon where everyone is welcome to bring in any items you would like his expert advice on, whoever they were made by – how good is that?

See you soon…can’t wait…

SWAMP Sunday October 9th 2022 – Breath Play Demo

Everything’s looking good for the October SWAMP this coming Sunday. Now the weather’s changing, what better way to chill out than with a whole load of the regions finest kinky people? The club has a new heating/cooling system installed so it’s much easier to keep it at just the right temperature. We’ve lots of traders for you this month, including Seven Sin, a company specialising in latex clothing, which is something we’ve been asked for for a while. You can find out who’s attending by clicking here.

This month’s demo is all about breath play – a very interesting form of edge play which has a lot of admirers but not something we normally allow at SWAMP. In the capable hands of Mistress 44X it’s sure to be very entertaining. She will be looking at the origins and history of Erotic Asphyxiation (breath play). The different ways it can be achieved whilst understanding the dangers that are present with the fetish.

It will focus on the safety aspects and know what to do in case of an emergency. This form of BDSM play is extremely dangerous and can be fatal. It is therefore imperative that all risks are taken into consideration before participating in this fetish.

The demo will start at 3pm and last approximately 45 minutes.

SWAMP Sunday 11th September 2022

Just under two weeks to go until the September 11th SWAMP. This month we have our afternoon Rope Workshop from 2.30pm until 5pm. Entry to the rope workshop is now included in the price of a £10 all day ticket, or £7 if bought before 2pm.

There is also FREE ENTRY to the market if you arrive before 2pm. So come along early and make a day of it, there’s lots of new products to browse through.

In the evening the popular needleplay workshop returns, run by Edgyyyyy Designs, and we also have a new wax workshop for you during the evening run by Amanda and Rob from Bound In Submission & Leather, in addition to our regular violet wand workshop with Mister Rol. Lots going on!

We would like to remind everyone that play in both the public and private dungeons is subject to SWAMP rules, and our Dungeon Monitors are instructed to step in should any play not conform to those guidelines. It really is very simple; our rules may differ to what you do at home or elsewhere, and it doesn’t matter how experienced you are – if your method of play doesn’t fit with our rules, please do not be offended if asked to moderate or cease play.

Sunday July 10th – Rope & Traders Frenzy!

Hi all,

Jahc and Richard Rope are back this month after their extended Covid break. They are limbering up, getting ready to welcome both newcomers and seasoned SWAMP string flingers, to oversee basic to expert skill sharing in the Peer Rope Workshop. The workshop starts at 2.30pm in the Demo/Public Dungeon area and runs until 5pm. If you’re not quite sure about getting physically involved, we’ve a large viewing area to just watch their creativity unfold.

For the first time since our return from Covid I’m pleased to say we have a healthy number of traders. You can check out who’s attending by clicking here. I think we’ve always brought a good balanced selection of BDSM items to your attention, but now there’s an even wider choice. There’s a good mix of custom, handmade and mass-produced goods for every budget, and your purchases, no matter how small, mean that the dedicated traders can offset some of the horrendous fuel prices we are all facing at the moment. Plus, remember that SWAMP is doing its bit to try and offset some of yours by offering free entry to the market if you arrive before 2pm, or a discounted all-day ticket at just £7.

Much as we want everyone to be in party/socialising mode during the evening do remember that if you are wanting to use the dungeons or needle workshop, then you would be advised to wait until after you’ve used those before drinking excessively. Our Dungeon Monitors/Workshop Leaders are very keen and will turn you away if they suspect you’ve drunk too much, which is what they have been instructed to do.

The afternoon dungeon area will be open as usual this month, but I’m unsure of its future as it very rarely gets used as it should, and I’m looking to create space for more lovely traders. Let me know if you’ve strong feelings either way.

Once again, I was amazed by some of the photos taken at our resident studio Paintbox After Dark last month. I’ve recently set up a new SWAMP profile on Instagram and look forward to seeing some of their work on there (posted by those who are happy to share of course). Our profile can be found by clicking here.

Sunday June 12th – A Demo For The Postman & Regular Pricks


Our demo this month is a real interesting one – Elastic Band Bondage and Torture. If you’re friends with your local postie then you’ll be sorted for the equipment, all you’ll need is a bit of advice and teaching from -MrSharpe- with regards to getting some body parts entwined and you’ll be good to go. Pull it back and… Twang! – lots of lovely bruises guaranteed. I last saw this around 10 years ago and take it from me, it’s a lot more painful than it sounds!

After the success of last month’s Needle Play Demo, we are pleased to be hosting a regular workshop at the SWAMP evening party. James & Niki of Edgyyyyy_Designs will be practising and advising on this much asked about topic every month from June. It’s going to be a popular attraction.

We’ve a couple more new traders for you this month. Some are exclusive to SWAMP and we hope you’ll reward their dedication to their craft. A lot of you will have noticed some impressive pics of your friends come up on your feed taken by our resident photo studio PaintboxStudio. If you’re thinking of getting a photo done – kinky or otherwise, I can highly recommend their work. They will be at the evening party from 7pm onwards.

Once again, we are offering free market & demo entry to everyone who makes it along before 2pm, or the option to buy a full day and evening ticket for just £7. Crazy deal!

Last but not least, I am very pleased to be able to tell you that starting next month (July 10th) our much-missed Rope Workshop will be returning with Jahc and RichardRope at the helm. More on that next month. It’s been a while…
