The Ministry Studios

Over ons

A purpose-built BDSM venue of 3,500 sq ft on Pikehelve Street, West Bromwich, about five minutes from junction 9 of the M6. The Ministry Studios spreads seven play spaces over three floors: themed rooms including a medical room and a dressing room, plus a large open-plan area with anchor points and a lounge overlooking it. There is an alcohol-free bar with hot food and snacks.

The club is run by two professional dominatrices and hosts ticketed munches and play parties, usually in the evening. Membership costs £10 with photo ID, the venue is cashless, and phones go into sealed privacy bags. The rooms can also be hired by the hour; four parking spaces sit out front.
