In Italy, the swinging movement is wrapped up in the world of the private members clubs, or Club Prives. For a complete breakdown of swinger venues by city, see our Italian swinger club directory. From couples who swap partners to singles who like to engage in casual sex, there are more than swinging clubs in Italy, many open daily and often hosting two sessions a day; one during the afternoon and one late at night.

Although prostitution is legal in Italy, organised prostitution is prohibited and brothels are illegal. Sex clubs are also banned. However, private members clubs can operate in Italy as long as strict rules are adhered to.

A Club Prive is considered a meeting place for couples and singles who want to be have casual sex, swap partners and partake in exhibitionism. It is important to understand that all Club Prives are for members only and you may not just turn up to any club without prior planning.
All clubs are open to members only but many are part of European Swinging organisations who accept ID cards from other clubs and groups. If you not a member of an association recognised by the club prive you are intending to visit then you will need to bring along a photographic form of ID sometimes proof of your address as wel and complete a form upon arrival. You will then be asked to pay an annual subscription charge these can vary but are usually a nominal sum before you are given a temporary membership pass.
