EUROPE’S biggest swingers’ festival returns next weekend – and it could be held just an hour down the road from Swindon.

The exact location of Swingfields is deliberately being kept under wraps until a couple of days before the sex festival starts. But, in the past, it has been held in the Forest of Dean and near Malvern.

Hundreds of fans of the sex craze are expected to descend on the farmland festival site. Swingfields is the largest event in Europe dedicated to swinging, the phenomenon that sees people hook-up with strangers – although typically in someone’s house rather than a tent in rural Gloucestershire or Worcestershire.

Tickets for this year's event range in price from £105 to £415 for a three-day luxury “glamping” option.

Launched in 2013, organisers describe Swingfields as a safe space for those interested in “The Lifestyle” – the name insiders typically give to swinging. They say those attending the event can have sex or simply enjoy the sunset.

And advertising the event on websites aimed at those interested in the craze, festival organisers promised luxury showers, toilets and camping.

According to reports, on one, they wrote: “The Swingfields Committee are delighted to announce that the next SWINGFIELDS festival – 'Aurora' will be held from Thursday 4th July 2019 until Sunday 7th July 2019.

"This three-day event will be working alongside ALL lifestyle groups, including LGBT communities, to ensure we deliver a fun and entertaining event for all, and already we have plans to entertain all groups who will be working to deliver the BEST EVER Swingfields weekend.

"We have luxury showers and toilets available, and for those self catering this year we also have washing up facilities.

"Perhaps camping is too much hassle so we are now offering a full range of GLAMPING, to include electric and heating options, all bedding, furnishings and lighting, so you just turn up and relax."

In 2017 the event was cancelled, with organisers blaming an increase in “trolls” and fearing the privacy of festival-goers was being invaded.

Swingfields starts on July 4, with the location reportedly announced 48 hours before.
