History of the club

Friends originally opened in Austin on October 8th, 1993 with the goal of providing a clean, safe environment for couples and single females wishing to meet other open-minded adults. Membership started through word of mouth and within the first five months membership was nearing 250 couples.

On March 12, 1994 a mysteriously caused fire started in the Friends club and when all was said and done the building was totally destroyed. The building itself was insured, but not the contents of the club. Within 24 hours of the fire, meetings were taking place within the membership of the club to decide what to do. It was successful and after a long search a suitable site was found for the new Friends. Basics of walls, plumbing, and electricity were completed and in August 1994 the club reopened.

The funds generated by the weekly attendance as well as some very generous contributions of money, materials, and labor by some of the members helped finish the job and on March 11,1995, almost one year after the fire, Friends had it's grand re-opening. The old club was memorialized in the entrance hall of the new club by the framing a small piece of the dance floor that had been recovered after the fire.

Today the membership of the club is quite large and is growing weekly. The club is a very special place to many. It's where we meet with friends, laugh, talk, and bond with others who share an open attitude towards human sexuality. It's still the sexiest and hottest club we know of. But to some it means so much more.

Now you know a little history of the club, come be a part of the future!
