Europe's biggest sex festival Swingfields top-secret location revealed as randy revellers descend on town
Festival goers will be able to work out other guests' sexual preferences from the colour of their wristbands
The top-secret location for the biggest swingers party in Europe has been revealed.
Swingfields - which promises randy revellers the chance to let loose - has relocated to a new home for the three-day sex-fest.
It previously took place at Flaxley, near Westbury-on-Severn, Gloucestershire, in 2016 and 2015 and it hasn't moved far for 2018.
Fields and huge marquees already erected as the party gets underway in the town, which is an area of outstanding natural beauty, running from Thursday to Sunday.
The location has been given away by the hand-written 'SF this way' signs that have cropped up on the roadside in the past couple of days.
Even revellers were none-the-wiser as to where the swinging festival was being held - they were notified by email just 48 hours prior the action kicking off.
It's happening in a field directly opposite the Three Counties Showground in Malvern. It is nothing to do with the Three Counties Showground itself.
The third 'Swingfields' festival took place in the little village of Flaxey, in the Forest of Dean, Gloucestershire
Tonight, Friday, is a themed night with 'special plans' and 'Swingfields magic' on the cards, according to the festival website. It ends on Sunday, Gloucestershire Live reports.
The festival's website says: "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.
"Once you arrive, you will be guided to the camping or campervan areas where the marshalling team will ensure you get located and unpacked.
"Once your accommodation is sorted then have a wander around our extensive site to check out all that will be on offer at the 'info tent' where our staff will provide the very latest news on whats on.
"Check out the new range of catering and drinks options and our new indoor cafe.
"There will be a full entertainment programme to include ‘old favourites’ from previous years that have been demanded to return by guests as well as a vibrant and eclectic mix of live music, experienced DJ’s and comedy. If the live entertainment is too much for you then relax in our new 'chill' zone (although it's heated!) with relaxing background music, and chat to friends.
"We have upgraded the showers and toilets so the latest festival luxuries are available, and for those self catering this year we also have washing up facilities (please DONT USE the sinks in the toilet units or they overflow!)
"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!
"Friday night is our THEMED night, and closer to the event we will confirm what special plans we have, a chance to get the fancy dress out and we will add the special ‘Swingfields’ magic to the plans."
The website also offers a fully downloadable glossary of terms for swingers including 'hot wife', 'full swap' and 'soft swap'.
In 2015 and 2016 Swingfields was held in Flaxley, with Temporary Event Licences issued by Forest of Dean District Council.
Some local residents voiced objections to the event but organisers pointed to their robust security and ticketing systems.
A three-day couples ticket costs £195, a single gentleman's ticket £170, and a three-day ladies ticket £115.
