About Our Festival
Why organise Antwerp Burlesque festival you ask? Well, simply because we feel like hosting a couple of nights every year where everything revolves around the art of seduction, extravagant and sexy outfits, tight corsets, big feathers and spinning tassels. Naughty and exciting, just like our fans!
All this, just to seduce an audience with a beautiful selection of theatrical, magical, sexy, stylish and humorous acts. There's a reason "We tease to please" is our credo for this swinging festival.
Dress to impress
Since the last six editions were such huge succeses, we'll be back with something special for our ninth anniversary and seventh festival on 13 and 14 May 2022. Just like the past years, we will treat you with a magnificent double bill.
On Friday 13 May 2022 , we'll be kicking off with the Grand Opening Night, where we'll introduce you to some new wonderful acts and fresh faces. And on Saturday 14 May 2022 we'll celebrate our Antwerp Burlesque Festival with a Best Of night, inviting some of our most loved performers back to the stage, back to the spotlights and back in front of our amazing audience!
Being able to present this magnificent event at the most beautiful venue in Antwerp, La Riva*, brings us nothing but joy!
Again, this will be a stylish weekend, and we'll be more than happy to welcome you. Get ready to be swept away during these evenings filled with cocktail dresses, frivolous evening gowns, tight suits, suspenders and high heels. Dress to impress, and we'll collectively make these nights unforgettable.
