About:

Polymorphously Perverse Greetings!

The Hellfire Club in Sydney Australia has been the focus for the local fetish scene for over thirteen years. Growing into some kind of bizarre institution, Hellfire has survived police raids, obscenity trials and seven venue changes before moving to our present home The Gaff (formerly Rogues), in time for our 12th Birthday Bash in April 2005. And my hasn't time flown, with our 14th Birthday being celebrated just recently!

This extraordinary longevity (it's Sydney's longest-running club night!) has meant that Hellfire is now known all around the world in fetish circles. The club even tours to regional areas from time to time, visiting Penrith, Newcastle and Darwin in 2002, and Melbourne in 2005. We did our first international tour, to Christchurch New Zealand in November, 2005 to perform at The Fetish Ball.

Right now we're on every THIRD friday of the month, 9.30pm-late, at THE GAFF, (rear lane entry) 16-18 Oxford Square, Darlinghurst (that's right on the corner of Oxford & Riley Streets). Resident DJs: MANDY ROLLINS, LANNY K & MISS YETTI. Perverse performances plus SPECIAL GUESTS. Entry is $25. For more info: webmaster@hellfiresydney.com

So be nice, and respect other people in the community. If you are keen to get involved, make sure you give us a call before doing something in our name.

The Hellfire Club: First Principles

The Hellfire Club is a fetish nightclub, where fetish enthusiasts come together once a month to dress up, dance, socialise, watch shows, listen to music and generally party hard.

It also serves as an ‘entry point’ to the fetish scene for those that discover that they too prefer to walk on the wild side, but have no idea where to start.

We take a broad view of fetish, beyond the traditions of leather, latex or PVC, into ‘dressing for pleasure’ in many forms. We actively encourage everyone to dress up for Hellfire. The variable door charge rewards those who have made the most effort in dressing to express their particular perversion.

It is a very mixed club. You’ll find varying proportions of people who identify as straight, bisexual, lesbian, gay, transgender, queer, intersex and some that defy even those labels. Which is just as well because we’re not too keen on labels anyway. Celebrating human sexuality in all its weird and wonderful diversity is what we’re all about, so as long as it doesn’t involve children, animals or the unwilling then hey, let’s party, whoever you are!

We’re also a club that celebrates physical diversity, with deliciously dirty deviants of all shapes and sizes dressed to thrill.

We welcome newcomers, remembering what it was like to be one ourselves.

We play safe in the knowledge that we respect each others limits and look out for each other.

But underlying all this, The Hellfire Club is a club built around the needs of women. We came to the conclusion (after years of getting it wrong!) that the key to making a mixed fetish club night work was in making women (straight/lesbian/bi whatever) feel comfortable, safe and uninhibited.

Able to walk around the club with their breasts out, unmolested and unremarked, if they feel like it. Able to be tied up to a rack, knowing that no unwelcome hands or comments or advances will intrude on their pleasure. Able to be in a space that, though sexually charged, is also completely safe, because for once the men know how to behave themselves!

So we ask a lot of all the people who come to The Hellfire Club; an open mind, a friendly smile and a strong sense of respect for each other. But we also need you to help us keep it special by telling us when things aren’t as they should be. If there is ever anything happening at the club that is bothering you or those around you, please do not hesitate to alert Master Tom, Ultra or the Door Bitch so that it may be addressed promptly. Lets keep it fun together.

Club Rules:

Top 5 Ways to Ruin Your Night at Hellfire

1) Touch anyone without express permission and we throw you out.

2) Insult anyone about their appearance or kink – this is a place that celebrates all ages, shapes, sizes and sexualities

3) If you’re a guy DON’T HIT ON WOMEN. Let them approach you. Many women are lesbians. Many are not interested. If we get complaints about men being predatory, we throw you out

4) Have sex in the club – yes even blowjobs – we throw you out

5) Take photos of anyone, anywhere, without express prior permission of the promoters and subjects

Ladies, if men (or women) break these rules and ruin your night TELL US AT THE TIME. We want Hellfire to remain a safe and sex-positive space for all women.
