The Swedish Consulate General in Colombo said they were unaware of the news published in international media regarding the registration of sex as a sport in Sweden.   

A spokesperson for the Swedish Consulate General in Colombo told the Daily Mirror that she didn’t know whether it was a legitimate story.   

Inquiries made by the Daily Mirror regarding the news from the Swedish Consulate in Colombo and the Swedish Embassy in New Delhi through email were not responded when the edition was sent to print.   


However, when the Daily Mirror logged into the Swedish Sex Federation website, a pop-up message said that the European Championship in Sex, organized by the Swedish Sex Federation, will begin on June 8, 2023.   

The message also said the live broadcast will be on www.livesexhouse.com website and the Swedish Sex Federation covers all costs of the contestants and requested all interested competitors to apply to the email: [email protected].
