Jump to: Newest in thread
Just discovered this, highly considering booking. Understandably the website doesn’t give much away, is there more info on dress code, activities etc available once you book? Never been to anything like this so we would love a little more guidance. I will send a message in the morning but I’m excited can’t wait til morning now |

It’s an awesome event and is jam packed! There is lots on and the themes for the weekend have just been released. Pop a message to either Bedbreakers69 or kinkybabe1109, they’re the organisers and they’ll let you know what’s on etc. there’s also a WhatsApp chat with a couple of hundred on there, so you get to know people before the event. I can’t speak any more highly about the event xx |

Weren't they meant to be doing one in North England this year and one South England?
As for last year's... with time you forget the problems of place.
Was good to meet loads of different people and we managed to do a couple firsts but the event itself was meh.
Showers didn't work 3/4 time. Toilets were always restricted to 1 functioning. Power cut in night.
Organisers did try attend to issues but were dismissive to issues with guests at same time.
The glamping option is a rip off... we paid £200 for a 5ft glamping pod and got a 4ft bell tent put up for us with ZERO luxury and the beds were unbearable, the floor was more comfortable, I exaggerate not.
Then theres the main area, they changed up bring own booze and have party to no booze allowed in main area cause vendors. Can understand that but shouldn't have misled paying guests to then say at venue.
The games and activities were hit and miss if happened and the swingers tent in main area had tension often between the two organisers from it.
All in all, _nteresting and good to meet new people but otherwise very iffy event which wasn't worth the £400 for a tent and half activities with barely any hygiene facilities.
Hopefully this year's is better than last 2 years but we tried and done with it.
Good luck, you will probably need it. |

People have different expectations and yes there were a few problems which could be resolved by people cleaning up after themselves. The event was well attended and enjoyed by most people who attended I am a camper so take all the things with me for hygene and comfort. Maybe your expectations were too high.having been to music festivals like glastonbury and seeing and smelling what happens there i really dont think it was as bad as you think. It certainly hasnt stopped me or my grouos of friends from booking again.

There were severe teething problems.. But the majority of the time, it wet really well. Such a lovely vibe - you honestly can't beat it...
I think that maybe - it's a good thing to be mindful of the fact that it was only the year before - that it truly started, which was a year after the whole covid thing.. So the organisers did an amazing job - again..

"Just had a look. Looks amazing. Seriously thinking of booking. Where is it though, I can't find anything saying we've roughly where it's held. X"
So the actual location isn't released until the day before the event, but it's usually around somewhere in lincolnshire...
Hope that helps and fingers crossed we see you there

First time for me, I’ve booked to go with a good fab friend.
Got to say a big thanks to the organisers who really helped me through the booking process and made me so welcome in the community.
Really looking forward to the weekend.

Newbie couple here. We are desperately racing to get 3 Fabswinger "verifieds" to be able to make entry requirements for Swingathon 23. If anybody can help us with that will be hugely appreciated. Willing to cam for it if you want. Can also meet one day a week (normally weekends) anywhere in Torbay area. |

Ah fair enough, always next year - I went last year and had an absolute epic time, I absolutely loved it, the organisers did a great job with a really good turn out and it’s looking even bigger this year - I can’t wait |

Any advice please on what to wear? Let’s assume nice weather, shorts and t-shirt or nude ? Sexy gear only at night or all day? How about the fancy dress, is it normal fancy dress or sexy ?
Sorry for asking, it’s our first time !! |

I think it very much depends on how comfortable you are as well as the weather. I think you'll see a wide range of outfits as it gives the impression of being very accepting and even a naughty environment.
This is our first time too
