Female swinger suffers heart attack ‘overdoing it’ at Swingfields sex festival

A woman reportedly suffered a heart attack and was airlifted to hospital from a Worcestershire sex festival  after 'pushing herself too hard during group activities'.

The 52-year-old woman was one of hundreds of people who descended on the quaint Worcestershire town of Malvern for Europe's biggest sex festival called Swingfields.

The site had been a closely-guarded secret and ticket holders who paid £170 for couples were only told 48 hours before the festival gets underway.

Organisers provided free sun cream to stop revellers being burned.

The woman was taken to hospital via an air ambulance and underwent emergency treatment, The Mirror reports.

It is believed she suffered a heart attack after participating in group activities at the festival, which hosted a tug of war and jelly wrestling.

Drone pictures taken during the three-day festival showed a red double-decker party bus and a gazebo covering several double-beds.

Large sex hammocks, big enough for several people to swing on, could be seen in the centre of the field and four poster beds dotted around the site - as well as mysterious tents and marquees in the corners of the field.

Paddling pools were also placed around the festival with a line of chairs set up nearby so that crowds can watch others make a splash.

Swingfields organisers have objected to the event being described as a sex party, claiming there is more sexual activity at other festivals.
